Free, and as long as you get there around 130pm, no issues. Surprised the club haven't either clamped down on it, or started charging. I didn't know this.

I used to get permits a few seasons back . Awesome spot 1 minute from the ground sorted . I don't think so ….saw it was empty earlier this year and mentioned to my mate they could make a few quid parking cars there . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owl in Nottingham Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Building and Paving supplies car park. Easy to get in ......just takes ages to get away. I drop my very immobile and registered disabled 85 year old father at the Herries Road/ Rawson Spring road corner while I park. He hobbles to the Herries Road/ Penistone Road Corner and sits on the wall until I get there and we head to ........you guessed it...The South Stand. I do think the club could make better provision for guys like my Dad who have supported the team all their lives. Just a dropping off point where all those expensive Range Rovers and Bentley's are parked would help.....and I would be driving not my Dad so they would not have to worry about the scraped paintwork!!!!!

Steelman Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Just drop him at the Wednesday Tap when it opens and park up wherever you like and walk down to him. Just make sure he's got you a couple lined up for when you get there. Then just do the same in reverse. Win-win IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
room0035 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Car at home walk to Hillsborough from Stannington, have a few beers at one or two of the pubs on the way, into the match, drinks after to celebrate the win, commiserate the loss - job done. Then picked up or bus back to Stannington it not a nice walking back up the hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A safe legal drop off point is a great idea. When I take my Dad my usual tactic is to get there early drop him somewhere on Penistone road and then go and park the car.
