Shrews to take Staines seriously

Paul Simpson
Simpson has yet to enjoy FA Cup success at Shrewsbury

Shrewsbury boss Paul Simpson is urging his men to remember last year's shock FA Cup defeat at Blyth ahead of their first round tie with Staines Town.

"Blyth was a horrible feeling. We must make sure we're not embarrassed again," Simpson told BBC Radio Shropshire.

The Shrews face the Blue Square South side at the Prostar on 7 November.

And Simpson said: "We found out last year how tricky it was going away to a non-League side, so I'm delighted we're at home."

Simpson will have done his homework on Staines: he went to watch their home game with Newport in the league on Tuesday.
