Pre-season is the time of year all football managers want to have with their teams.
It is no different at Shrewsbury Town this year as Paul Hurst and Chris Doig oversee the summer work put in by the Salop players as they bid to get themselves in the best shape possible ahead of the league season commencing on August 10.
And Chris Doig, Shrewsbury assistant coach, has said the results in the games do not mean anything as it is all about the 'bigger process'. "There are games in pre-season, but results don't really mean anything. You want to win, but there is a bigger process to it all."So you have less time to really work on those kind of fitness things, and the tactical things the same, everything is about recovery and preparation and all that kind of stuff.
Town will play their first pre-season friendly this weekend when they make the trip to Brackley Town.
