Fans to roll up for match

Thursday 2nd October 2008, 11:50AM BST.

A Shropshire club is preparing for an invasion of bowls followers tomorrow.

Officials at St Georges have come up with a plan to cater for an expected 300-plus crowd at the Furrows Shropshire Premier League play-off between Telford rivals Donnington Wood and Bowring.

There will be stewards on hand to direct cars down the lane by the church to 100 parking spaces by the club’s big green ahead of the 7pm start tomorrow.

Parking will also be allowed by the Recreation Club itself and there will be hot drinks and food available in the pavilion.

Mid Shropshire champions Bowring have a team meeting tonight as part of their preparation.

    Telford followers would have travelled to Shrewsbury for this. Not sure sure many Shrews will bother.

    Especially with the long walk to the bar aswell!
