Deja Vu Wembley!





We embarked on another trip down to Wembley on the 23rd May 2009, to see Shrewsbury Town football club (again!) v Gillingham football club.
Again, another convoy of coaches headed down south, making one stop at a motorway services, where Shrewsbury fans just took over the whole place.
It was a lovely day, so on arrival we headed to a pub. The pubs around Wembley were allocating themselves to either team, we ended up in a Wetherspoons.

Our seats in the stadium were a bit higher up than last time (ok, a lot higher up), but a good view. To cut a long painful 90 minutes short, Shrewsbury lost in the dying seconds to a late winner from Gillingham. The dream was over again. Maybe they will be lucky next time? Or maybe everything happens in three's?
STFC 0-1 GTFC
