Martin Wild reports from Adams Park

Paul Simpson sticks with the same squad that he has for the last four games other than two changes that he is forced to make.Luke Daniels hasn't travelled due to an illness and Mike Jackson hasn't recovered from the facial injury that he picked up at Darlington. Glyn Garner comes into goal and Langmead partners Coughlan in the heart of the Town defence.

After a relatively quiet opening Shrews went ahead after twelve minutes. Ben Davies put a corner kick right onto the head of Grant Holt who accepted the chance with some relish by powering home a far post header.

It was an excellent start to the game for Salop who were looking to add the scalp of the current league leaders to that of Exeter City, who were beaten early last month in Devon.

The goal appeared to have rocked Peter Taylor's side as the visitors enjoyed a prolonged period of possession, and they began to knock the ball around on the lush playing surface. It certainly hadn't in any way been affected by the sharing of facilities with the Wasps Rugby League Club.

On 26 minutes hitman Holt doubled Town's advantage. Ben Davies showed tenacity in muscling Craig Woodman off the ball on the near touchline and his momentum took him into the penalty area. His low cross eluded all the back-pedalling defenders and was smashed into the corner of the net by Holt, who unfortunately is forced to sit out the next game due to suspension.

Shrewsbury were enjoying themselves and so were their raucous band of supporters, many of whom had taken advantage of free admission to Adams Park for season ticket holders and under 16s.

Davies tested Jamie Young in the Wycombe goal from another set piece and there was a minor injury scare when Ben Herd went down with a head knock, but he quickly recovered.

Incredibly Town raced into a three goal lead after 39 minutes. Holt this time turned provider after receiving a ball from Dave Hibbert. He waited for the overlap of Kevin McIntyre and the midfielder's crisp low shot across Young virtually sealed the tie.

By some considerable distance this had been Shrewsbury's most impressive away performance, and each touch of the ball was met by cries of ole from the delirious Town fans. It was difficult to find any flaws at all in a near perfect first half display from the rampant away side.

Half-Time: 0-3

Predictably, Wanderers upped the ante at the start of the second half, but such had been the protection afforded by the Town back four to their goalkeeper, that Garner had yet to make a save with almost an hour played.

The home side had made five changes to the team that went to the top of the table courtesy of their 3-1 weekend win over Bournemouth, but Shrewsbury were in such complete control, that Wycombe could have brought the rested players on as well, and the result still wouldn't have been affected!

There was certainly no requirement for the team to go in search of any more goals; it was merely a case of preventing the hosts from giving themselves any kind of lifeline. But another goal came just moments after both sides had made changes from the bench, and once more it went to the Shrews. Shane Cansdell-Sherriff - who had taken more of a back seat role after a dominant display by Sean Thornton - scored an absolute beauty on 73 minutes. His exquisite chip from 30 yards dropped over Young and into the net to make the scoreline even more comprehensive for Simpson's men.

It was the first time the team had scored four away from home since the opening day of last season when Lincoln were humbled 4-0.

Holt headed his third and Salop's fifth minutes later and then belted home his fourth with an absolute cracker as it rained goals in Buckinghamshire. Less than a month after panning seven past Gillingham, Town were again reminding the rest of the division just how potent the goal threat can be when the team catches light. Here they were against a side unbeaten in League Two with a six goal lead and very good value for that sizeable margin.

Many of the Chairboys fans would be by their firesides by 9 o'clock as they couldn't stand to have any more pain inflicted.

They were good judges too because it became seven with four minutes left and that man Holt took his personal tally to five. One more and he'd need two matchballs! His fifth was a mixture of strength and precision as he forced his way past his marker before unleashing yet another quality finish into the bottom corner.

I'm sure people will still be pinching themselves for years to come as two 7-0 wins in the space of 24 days has never been heard of before, and is unlikely to be ever again. Unless the team can repeat it against Port Vale on Saturday that is!

Full-Time: 0-7
