Hibbert promises 20-goal return

Last updated : 25 March 2010 By BBC Sport

Shrewsbury striker Dave Hibbert has set himself a 20-goal target to help revitalise his side's chances of promotion from League Two.Hibbert, who has hit the net 14 times this season, last scored against Dagenham on 23 January and has missed the last two games with a groin injury.

"I always seem to go on a mad spree but then be quiet for a spell," Town's top scorer told BBC Radio Shropshire.

"It would be great to get to 20, definitely, that's the aim."

He added: "I've had some stick for being on 14 for so long, but I'm sure I'll get one and then they'll fly."

Hibbert missed Shrewsbury's defeats by Rochdale and Aldershot, with side sliding to three points outside the play-off places.

And having recovered from a groin tear after surgery in London he knows winning their next game, against Darlington on Saturday, is vital.

"The game has become a pivotal one in our season," he said. "We need to improve, and we also need the fans to get behind us."
