Shrewsbury Town goalkeeper Shaun Rowley has joined Slough on loan. 

He's been drafted in to provide cover for goalie Mark Scott who fractured his neck playing for Slough last weekend.

Shropshire Council and three other authorities have been at the High Court, arguing a "massive funding deficit" had put local councils at risk of breaching legal duties they owe to vulnerable people who could be deprived of their liberty.

The four councils, Shropshire, Nottinghamshire, Liverpool and Richmond, claim the government's failure to provide adequate funding has created "a national crisis" for local authorities.

The Local Government Association has said at least an extra £172m a year is needed nationwide.

The coach company National Express is coming under fire, for discrepancies in the cost of tickets in mid-Wales. 

Some passengers in Newtown and Welshpool have had to fork out £80 for a return trip to London, when others, getting on the same service, back in Aberystwyth, were paying only £35. 

National Express says its prices are set according to demand and although it has since reduced its "lowest available fare" from Newtown to London to match the price from Aberystwyth, it isn't cutting fares from Welshpool.

A volunteer ambulance service worker from St Martins, near Oswestry, who was dismissed after an issue about paperwork, is hoping she'll be allowed to return to her role as a Community First Responder. 

Effie Cadwallader says when ambulance crews wouldn't take a patient's report-forms with them, she shredded them to keep them secure. 

The ambulance service said she'd broken the Data Protection Act.

"Patient Report Forms describe the treatment received by a patient and as such could be requested by a coroner or other court," a spokesperson said.

"Mrs Cadwallader had previously been reminded of the procedures to be followed for any documentation that may remain with a Community First Responder.  

"As such the Trust was left with no option but to take the deeply regrettable decision to terminate her agreement."
