Town are moored in the League Two bottom two after one win in 11 games to start the new season but summer signing Stubbs believes a strength of Appleton's is to not part "anxiety" on to players.

Shrewsbury begin a run of back-to-back home games with Saturday's clash against Cambridge, where they aim to finally end a run of no home league wins since February 1.

"If you look at the players that we've brought in I think they've been recruited because they are good pros and experienced pros," said Stubbs, 26, who is formerly of Exeter, Bradford and Cheltenham among others.
