I know it's a bit of an ask 50 minute walk in a place you don't know at night. Shrewsbury looks great for an away day but terrible to get back from was thinking taxi but bet they will be rammed and miss the train

I was thinking a taxi would be tricky, but it is a friendly, so may not be that busy....

About 90 tickets left for Shrewsbury.. great effort

Only 3 tickets left in the North Stand.

 

Shrewsbury Town have only opened up the East and South stands for home fans ...  so I would guess that there's a reasonable chance more tickets might be made available to us in the West Stand, if needed.

Sold out - great effort

6 tickets just come back on sale - block 21

Cheapest Eurostar option is about £168 return from London at the moment

Shrewsbury Town are missing a trick here.    We sold out our allocation ages ago, but they've got a whole stand empty.   

They could surely have opened up a couple of blocks in the West Stand, and get a few 100 extra City fans there.   Seems a bit strange ...

Wouldn't put it past LCFC to ask them not to offer any more to away fans.

Dunno why you think that. This time last year we had 3/4 of Northampton’s ground for a friendly

I’ve booked parking at the Sainsbury’s in the Meole retail park by the stadium.  Does anyone know if there’s a short cut between the 2, because google maps shows a long way around.

Yeah looks like there’s an underpass where the train track is behind the Sainsbury’s. Saying a 13 minute walk on apple maps.

Interesting that Shrewsbury 'sold out' yet hundreds didn't turn up?

I did mention at £12 - some might take the priority point
