Shrewsbury Town are expected to appeal Jordan Shipley’s red card after boss Paul Hurst criticised the midfielder’s “baffling” dismissal in Tuesday’s 3-0 defeat to Exeter.

Shipley was sent-off in just the sixth minute at Croud Meadow with Hurst later revealing he initially thought referee David Rock had shown the card to Exeter’s Ryan Woods.A visibly frustrated Hurst said: “I probably can’t say what I really think. I think we might as well stop playing football if that is a red card.

“It spoils the night for everyone. With 10 men, yeah, we have to give it a go but they are good in possession and they are the type of team you don’t want to go down to 10 men.” Exeter scored three times in the space of 18 first half minutes through Will Aimson, Luke Harris and Jack Aitchison, though Hurst was also felt referee Rock missed fouls against his team in the build-up to the first two goals.

“So it is not just the sending off, there are a couple of incidents in the lead up to goals which I think contributed significantly.”
