Mr Farrell Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Always seems pretty full so must offer something that fans want. Pretty sure moneys raised go to the community and various good causes. If that's ripping fans off, I'm Alan Biggs. The car surfing is also very entertaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are places to park other than getting fined and as for the "incapacitated" £7 for them is a disgrace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lombardo Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 It is brilliant for people who cannot walk too far (age or physical impediment) It is a god-send on wet and cold match-days as it takes ages for me and my mother-in-law (very slow walker) to walk back to the car a mile or so along Penistone road. I don't mide sitting in a virtual car-park for an hour after the final whistle on those days... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Farrell Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Bargain price to be fair. Secure, yards from the stadium, no parking tickets, celebrity Wednesdayite directors ready to meet and greet, catering vans nearby, and monies go back into the community. I'd personally pay more to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coopswfc76 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Don't use it but nice1 as suits some people who cant walk far and in fairness if others are happy to pay £7 towards good causes so they can be bone idle then why not charge that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulva Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 3 hours ago, Big Ron's Sovereign said: I appreciate that but £7 ! £7 to park 20 yards from the ground is fantastic value. Try parking in John Lewis, or next to the Crucible. And let me know how the mortgage application that follows goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcx666 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Honestly Ive no issue paying 7 quid to park there, its only a quid more than parking at most of the newer ground, like Boro, Bolton, Stoke etc, goes to local charities, is great if me mam comes with us who is well, old, and living outside manchester where you can never judge the traffic for how long its gonna take you is handy as hell, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
