Albion's new million pound striker Jimmy-Jay Morgan has received the thumbs up from the club where he set a scoring record. But he's also been handed a warning - work harder to make it in the Championship.

Morgan received a warm reception when he returned to Peterborough for Albion's latest pre-season friendly. He didn't notch in the easy 2-0 win at the Weston Homes Stadium, missing a couple of chances as Peterborough, like Shrewsbury, failed to give James Morrison's men a proper test.

Aune Heggebo and substitute Barney Stewart scored the goals to provide Albion's third straight victory of the summer after wins against Bromley and Shrewsbury.
