Rallying call to save Royal British Legion clubs
- Today's leader
Southend 0 Shrewsbury 2
Saturday 5th February 2011, 4:57PM GMT.
Shrewsbury Town completed a fine week with a second League Two victory in five days.
Graham Turner’s side followed up their 3-0 victory over Burton on Tuesday with an equally impressive 2-0 success at Southend.
The visitors were full value for a victory which was sealed by goals from Jon Taylor and Matt Harrold, the same scorers as on Tuesday,
Taylor broke the deadlock two minutes before the break with a fine edge of the box finish after Jermaine Grandison and Harrold had combined in the build-up.
And Harrold sealed the victory on the hour with a left-footed thunderbolt from 25 yards which rifled into the top corner.

I am also an exiled Shrewsbury fan able to take my 10 year to see us beat Southend. Great performance and a win, which made my lads day – especially as he is an Arsenal fan. Feeling optimistic that we might actually go up this year.
