Telford Players Subsidise Fan Travel to Hereford


Telford United's squad will subsidise supporters coach travel to Edgar Street, saying they will 'need their support' next Saturday week.

The team will donate £500 to the cause, which will bring prices down by £5. The club are also offering discount to those who went to the third qualifying round tie at Stafford Rangers.

The Bucks' captain, Shane Sutton, told the OS: "Our supporters have been fantastic all season, however the last month as a squad of players we have noticed them at a different level. 

"The noise on Saturday against FC United was unbelievable and if we can help pay towards getting as many fans as possible to Hereford then we will. 

"We will need their support."

In a statement, the club praised the players for their 'fantastic gesture.'

"The first team playing squad have made a fantastic gesture to subsidise supporters coach travel to the FA Cup tie at Hereford, to the extent of £500 in total.

"The subsidy from the playing squad will enable us to reduce the fare to Hereford to £7, and to £5 for supporters who travelled to Stafford Rangers on the coach."
