Tonight at Penpole Lane we welcome Ilminster Town for Shire's final home game of the season.
Still a handful of games to play because of all the winter wet weather postponements, but being a shared ground, the pitch now reverts to a cricket pitch for the summer.
So, as with Slimbridge on Saturday, it would be great to see Shire get a win at their last home game of the 2017-18 season.
UP THE SHIRE🔴⚫
Elsewhere, Slimbridge travel to Taunton for their penultimate game of the season. Now safe from relegation, just pride to play for.
UP THE SWANS🔵⚪

Cracking free kick drifted in to the box by Ilminster(seemed to hover unnaturally in the air), headed in. Ilminster playing with belief again now feeling they are back in it.
2-1 rain hammering down.

FT. Shire hang on to win 2-1 in foul conditions.
Ref wasn't shy about blowing as early as possible it's that wet, and I don't blame him. Win's a win👍
UP THE SHIRE🔴⚫
We go again on Thursday⚽

Thoughts on just getting home...
We have a handful of away league games still to play, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday, this week alone.
Players were tired second half. Losing shape, slow to get to positions... injury list is building through fatigue.
We have a cup final on May 15th.
The run of league games are gonna cripple us in the run-up to that.
We aren't gonna win the league, so time to put out a second string team for remaining league games, and get our first team fit again for the cup final.
