For the majority of this season Salop's away record has been woeful.
So the fact they went to a play-off hopeful and left frustrated they did not get more than a point tells you everything you need to know about the progress made in recent times.
The 1-1 draw made it seven points out of the last nine available and it was yet more evidence Salop's survival bid is alive and kicking.
ARE SHREWSBURY EVOLVING?
It was a different kind of performance from Ainsworth's side.
We have become accustomed in recent weeks to seeing Shrewsbury demonstrate defensive resoluteness, but on this occasion, they offered a real attacking threat heading in the opposite direction.
The frustration will be born out of the lack of ability to capitalise on those moments of promise they had throughout the 90 minutes.
We saw Shrewsbury mix it up at the Select Car Leasing Stadium and offer a real attacking intent.
A POSITIVE START
