• A number of Town’s 1978-79 third division title heroes have confirmed they will be attending a nostalgia night next month.
Tickets are still available for the event in the Prostar Stadium’s Sovereign Suite on Sunday, May 17, arranged to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the most notable title triumph in the club’s history and also to mark 50 years since Town’s first Football League promotion.
Jake King, Ian Atkins, Ken Mulhearn, Carleton Leonard, Jimmy Lindsay and Steve Cross have already agreed to attend, with organisers shrewsTRUST and the Super Blues hoping more favourites will come on board soon.
Tickets costing £10, which include a buffet meal, will be on general sale from Saturday.
They will be available from shrewsTRUST sellers at the Brooklands pub and Super Blues sellers in the Power League Bar at the stadium.
They are also available from Chris Smith on (01952) 604742 or Roger Groves on 07868 701719.
