Shrewsbury Town manager Graham Turner felt his side deserved the win over Hereford United this afternoon.
"It's another three points for us - I thought we won the game in the first half," Turner told the press.
"In the second it had got a bit scrappy when we didn't pass the ball particularly well, but I thought we deserved the win.
"Our strikers have had a lean time of late but we scored two goals - the first was well worked and the second an individual strike. Overall it was a good result for us.
"We knew it was going to be difficult, being a local derby, and sooner or later Hereford are going to start winning a few games. So we are pleased to have got the game out of the way and have got the three points."
