Simpson's side have lost three away games in League Two

Shrewsbury Town manager Paul Simpson says his side will improve their away form after Saturday's loss at Grimsby.

Simpson told BBC Radio Shropshire: "It's three defeats on the road - it's not the end of the world. We need to keep going.

"I'm not getting as screwed up about it as everybody thinks I should be.

"First half they should have been out of the game - we had our chances," he added. "You have to take your opportunities and we didn't."

Grimsby's 1-0 win was only their second of the season, and leaves Shrewsbury third in League Two.

The Shrews take on Brighton in the southern section semi-final of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy on Tuesday at the Prostar Stadium.
