Gary Peters has admitted he still harbours regrets his time in charge of Shrewsbury came to an end in March 2008.

“My first three years were great and I just wish that my last season had turned out a bit different,” he said.

“We had that hangover from losing in the play-off final in that last season.

“If I had my time again, I maybe wouldn’t have offered my resignation when I did because if we had seen that out, we had some good young players to have a go with the next season.

“But one of the reasons I felt it was time to go was that, unlike the chairman, Rob Bickerton (then managing director) wanted to get more involved in the football side of it.”
