Shrewsbury Town chief Graham Turner is hoping his side's healthy attacking options will prove crucial in the final run-in.

The Town boss is happy with the form of James Collins, Terry Gornell and Marvin Morgan, while he also has Wales Under-21 international Tom Bradshaw waiting in the wings.

And, with this afternoon's home clash with Rotherham signalling the start of the five-game sprint for the line, Turner is hoping that strength in depth will prove a key factor in the congested race for a top-three finish.

"Terry and James are starting and are both doing well," said Turner.

"They have been a good partnership, Marvin is different with his pace and mobility and we also have Tom Bradshaw who hasn't had too much game time. It's a great position to be in."

Meanwhile, Turner admits that the League Two title may be beyond his side –but believes the race for the other two automatic promotion berths is wide open.

Swindon were eight points clear of Shrewsbury ahead of this afternoon's fixtures. "You have to hand it to Swindon," added Turner.

"They are not far off home and dry but there is competition for the other places."
