The 76 seater bus, provided by Arriva, will take fans free of charge to and from the TNS home ground in Park Hall to watch title-decider against Bangor on Saturday.
Arriva Duty Manager and TNS fan, Mark Hughes says: “I’ve been a fan of TNS for a couple of years and thought it would be a great way to support the club if I could help bring fans to the match. The boys have a good chance of winning the title this year and the support of local people would really help.â€
First to sign up for the free bus are parents and pupils from Woodside school, with whom the club has built a close relationship.
TNS General Manager, Ian Williams, says: “We want to build a good atmosphere at the ground because it can mean the difference between winning and losing the title. Last year the title-decider was played at Bangor and their overwhelming support pushed them to win the league. This year the final is being played at home and while we expect a large crowd from Bangor, we hope that we can put on a show of local support to motivate the team.â€
