Shrewsbury relegated to conference

Last updated : 30 April 2003 By Luke Thornhill
Shrewsbury needed three points against Carlisle United tonight to have any chance of league survival, while the Cumbrians knew that three points would see them safe from any last day nail-biting.

A hat-trick from Brian Wake was enough to doom the Shrews to the conference, and means their last game in the league will be against the same team they played in their first ever league game - back in 1950 when a goaless draw was played out at the Old Showground.

Saturday's game at the Gay Meadow is all ticket for Iron fans and tickets can be purchased from the ticket office at Glanford Park.

If you cannot get into Scunthorpe then give the club a call on 01724 848077, around half the allocation has already been sold.
