Shrewsbury match-winner Ollie Norburn calls for unity from fans after frosty Meadow atmosphere

There was a frosty atmosphere at Montgomery Waters Meadow as Town played poorly and fell behind to a Wycombe opener yesterday before a welcome late turnaround through Omar Beckles' header and Norburn's added time penalty.

Disgruntled Shrewsbury fans aimed frustrated chants the way of manager Sam Ricketts but skipper Norburn wants to feel a togetherness between every part of the club with eight games remaining in an incredibly tight League One relegation scrap.

Norburn, up to 10 goals for the season, said: "We're delighted (with the win) but we know the situation we're in, we can't get too up, it's a nice situation we're in with three points on the board but we'll rest up now and look to go again.

"We're all together in there, everyone's fighting for each other, everyone's behind the manager.

"You heard a bit of negativity today from the fans but we just want to say try to get behind us, we're all fighting for each other and we need that little bit of help from the fans.

"We're all in this situation together, we all want to stay safe, let's do it as one, fans, players and manager.

"It's a massive three points, it's very tight, we've got to keep going, let's do it as one."

Town ended a run of three games without a win, all against relegation rivals, by overturning the 1-0 Meadow deficit that had brought on angry responses from fans, who were questioning Ricketts' player selection.

But Norburn insists the manager's squad are all together fighting for the cause. He added: "It was all about the three points, I don't think it was the prettiest of games.

"That's the situation we're in, we've got to scrap, a game is 90 minute, if we stick together, keep grafting and grinding, then anything can happen. It proved it.

"I'm delighted with the win, we've just got to carry this on now to get safe."

Norburn showed nerves of steel in the third of five minutes added on to score the match-winning penalty – after insisting to top scorer Fejiri Okenabirhie, on a late sub, that he was the man to dispatch it.

He continued: "He's a goalscorer, Fey wants to score goals, but I felt I knew I could remain calm and I knew where I'd put the ball.

"I wanted the penalty, took the penalty and it's won us the game so that's that.

"It's double figures now, a few pens, but a goal is a goal."
