Wednesbury win over Shrews
Following a crushing defeat at the hands of Ludlow seven days previously, Wednesbury put in a much improved shift against Shrewsbury to secure their second win of the Midlands Three West campaign.

The Wednesbury habit of missing crucial tackles was still in evidence against Shrewsbury and that gifted them two scores, but such was the grip the visitors' forwards had on the match they never looked like releasing control.
They took an early but shortlived lead through winger Andy Field but it was not until the second period that Wednesbury started to exert control.
Hooker Rob Mew drove over for his first of the season and Andy Hawkins obliged with the conversion, a feat he repeated minutes later when substitute Lee Baker crossed.
Early season pacesetters Stoke-On-Trent, unbeaten in their three games this season, visit Woden Road North on Saturday.
Mid-table Bridgnorth had the unenviable task of taking on a rampant Ludlow side and pushed them close.
They were narrowly edged out 26-22, a result which suggests a return to form for the Shropshire side.
Bridgnorth host local rivals Shrewsbury this weekend.
