West Midlands Ambulance Service says it doesn't blame hospital staff for delays to admissions at accident and emergency last month, saying they are "working incredibly hard to ensure patients are turned around as quickly as possible".

Thousands of ambulances were delayed by over half an hour, before patients could be offloaded, with the Worcestershire Acute Hospitals Trust seeing the largest number of hold-ups.

The ambulance service said it was talking to hospitals to try to reduce the problem, but added "every time an ambulance is delayed it means we find it more difficult to get to the next patient in a timely manner".

Shrewsbury Town fans have unofficially named a path across a roundabout Paul Hurst Way, in honour of the manager, and have erected a sign.

Shropshire Council responded by saying it was "brilliant to see Shrewsbury Town doing so well this season" and that it was happy for the sign to remain until the end of the season.

The authority said it hoped the club would be celebrating promotion by the time it is due to be removed, and is suggesting that if the fans want the name made permanent they make a formal application.
