Mistakes were made in Shrewsbury Town’s recruitment last summer according to Micky Moore – but Salop’s director of football has called on fans to judge him over a longer period of time.
Moore arrived at the Croud Meadow as the club’s first ever director of football last summer during a period of change for Salop.
Steve Cotterill departed as Moore arrived in Shropshire, before Matt Taylor was brought in along with a number of new players.
Taylor was sacked in early 2024 after a poor run of results – with fan favourite Paul Hurst returning to steer Salop towards League One safety.
During his first year at the club, Moore has received criticism from sections of the Salop fan base for some of the recruitment decisions that have been made.
Moore addressed judgement and criticism from the supporters during an appearance on the In The Stiffs podcast this week – and admitted mistakes had been made during his first season at the club.
However, Moore urged supporters to look at the success he achieved over a long period at his previous club Cheltenham Town, where the club won promotion to League One, reached the FA Cup fourth round, and made £1.5m in transfer fees.
