Heads up, Shrewsbury fans – it’s time to nominate your Town Fan of the Season!

It’s been an up and down campaign for Town but they have been followed far and wide in League One again this season by their loyal supporters.

And there is no forgetting the storming FA Cup run to a fourth-round replay at Premier League Wolves – where 3,000-plus Salopians packed into Molineux.

Sam Ricketts’ men are aiming to pull up and away from relegation trouble between now and the end of the season and hope to continue their recent run of improved form.

Here at the Shropshire Star, we’re looking to find a supporter who has gone to extreme levels to support Town as we give out our second Shrewsbury Town Fan of the Season award.

We’re looking to honour a Shrews fanatic at this season’s End of Season Awards, which will take place at Montgomery Waters Meadow around the end of the season

Last year’s winner Rosemarie Cliffe who, at the age of 80, had been watching Town since 1953, was recognised on stage with the management and first-team staff in attendance.

Our winner will receive a special prize and have their story told in front of fellow supporters and Town’s first-team squad at the glittering annual ceremony.

Entries are now open and all you need to do is contact us in writing via the Sports Editor, Shropshire Star, Ketley, Telford, TF1 5HU with your nomination and reasons.

You can also nominate online at www.shropshirestar.com, via email at sportsdesk@shropshirestar.co.uk or contact us via Twitter and our Facebook page.

Supporters can nominate themselves or someone else, whether it be a friend, colleague or family member.

Please include your name, address and telephone number with your suggestion and their contact details, explaining why you think they deserve the award.

Young or old, there is no age limit for entries.

Nominations must reach us by Monday, April 1 and nominees must be free to attend Shrewsbury Town’s End of Season Awards.

The prize is two VIP places on the Shropshire Star table that night, as well as a memento to be presented on stage.

So get those entries in to reward that one fan whose passion and dedication for the club deserves to be recognised.

The Sports Editor’s decision is final.
