PAUL Mullin believes Accrington Stanley are playing like a team challenging for the play-offs - not one worrying about relegation.

The Reds travel to Shrewsbury this Saturday knowing that a victory could guarantee their Football League survival.

John Coleman's men - five points above the drop zone with three games left - are favourably placed to stay up.

Four successive home wins and encouraging performances on their travels have proved crucial and Mullin is pleased with the way Stanley are playing.

"We are playing like a side that should be comfortably in mid-table, if not in with a shout of the play-offs," said the veteran striker.
