Introduction: Shrewsbury Town Football Club

The Shrewsbury Town Football Club (STFC) is a professional association football club based in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England. The team competes in League One, the third tier of English football. The club plays its home games at New Meadow Ground. They moved from their earlier Gay Meadows Ground in 2007 after a 97 years stay (1910-2006). The Shrews, also known affectionately as "Salop", "Town", or "The Blues", have won the Shropshire Senior Cup a record 67 times and are the only club from Shropshire to ever play in the professional English Football League.
Shrewsbury Town was formed in 1886 following the demise of first Shropshire football club called The Wanderers. They competed for the local regional cup for the first few seasons, but after four years of play became inaugural members of the new Shropshire & District League (1890). After that the club has moved upward in the tiers of English football and enjoys a long historical tradition of growth and successes supported by a generational and enthusiastic fan base. Listed below are some of their honors.

At the moment the flag illustration on the right is incomplete as the photo I am working from doesn't display the 1st and 4th quarters clearly. Can anybody help me complete it?

I have no idea about this particular flag or what the Shropshire Branch is, but I'm hoping one of you does and can enlighten us.
The Queen of the South Football Club is a Scottish professional football club located in Dumfries. They are nicknamed "The Doonhamers" but are more usually referred to as Queens. Perhaps another Scottish invasion is in the making?
