Discounted supporters bus travel
A recent meeting of the Supporters Club committee discussed the issue of discount benefits for supporters and agreed that three Northern League away matches would be eligible for discount travel.
The three matches – the furthest travelled games for Shildon in the league – are: Ashington (scheduled to take place on Saturday 10th October), Penrith (21st November) and Morpeth (Boxing Day).
The committee agreed that if Shildon progress in the FA Vase, other matches will be added to the discount scheme in due course.
