Supporters Coach continues!!

The Supporters Bus from The Grapes - Bicton Heath, The Beacon – Copthorne, and The Red Barn – Longden Road runs as normal for the game on Saturday (24^th) against Aldershot Town (kick off at the Prostar 3 p.m.)

ShrewsTRUST, the Shrewsbury Town Supporters Trust, extended the service that started for the Crewe game, with The Grapes at Bicton Heath, the new starting for the Northampton match.

Numbers improved to continue the service at the Port Vale game, but numbers need to be maintained and improved to keep viable

Adrian Plimmer, Trust Media Officer said;

“The turn out for the Port Vale game was excellent with the 24 people travelling 

We need to maintain the same numbers and more, and so need your support”

The Beacon at Copthorne, one of the pick up locations has also agreed to support the bus with sponsorship.

“We thank Terry and staff for their support with bus, and they will be listed as a sponsor of the bus”

Departure times will be 2 p.m. from the Grapes, with the Beacon at 2.15 p.m, and 2.20 p.m. from the Red Barn. Departure time will be 10 minutes after the Final Whistle from the coach parking point on the north side of the car park at the Prostar. The cost of the service will be £2.50

Parking is available at all pick up venues. Supporters using The Grapes are asked to park at the rear of the building.

Seats should be booked in advance (as we cannot guarantee availability on the day) so for more details contact Lol Evans for The Grapes on 07717442143, the Red Barn on 01743 362503 and the Beacon on 01743 344 286
