Wednesday tap is a very good idea, but it isn’t big enough and the no kids policy pre match makes no sense. If I was king I would make the megastore a proper size Wednesday Tap, and move the store to the tap. The store has soon much wasted space it's daft, and if we are exploring avenues like merch going out via meadow hall etc, a proper Tap would be awesome.

mattitheowl Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Parking at Hillsborough is soon going to be impossible. Once that has gone I dread to think what it's going to be like. I already arrive 90 minutes before the game and park over a mile away just to get a space (and even then it's sometimes tight). With the Wednesdayite carpark going and no new alternatives it's going to be manic, particularly for night games! Just not bothered... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live under 1 mile from the ground, Google Maps says 0.8 Never does match day parking reach my house, never would it be hard to find a parking spot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Manwithastick Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Know a couple of elderly ST holders and one disabled ST holder who have said once the carpark is gone that'll be the end of their ST's It might impact mine and the boys - I cannot get to the ground 90 minutes in advance. We never get there more than 30 minutes before kick off. Without an alternative within a 10 minute walk we'll be struggling. Add that to the number we miss already because of business commitments and this season might have to be our last ST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The council planners either don’t care or don’t have the power anymore. every decision they make in that area of the city disregards the traffic implications. Traffic can be horrendous at weekends as well where the roundabout used to be. already too many retail units and supermarkets round here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heard this rumour about Wednesday getting it since before the Lee Strafford days, it's never happened though, with the bridge over the Don to the training ground. Think it's all been made up to be honest. Edit: I think I heard this from you once personally also at a Fans Forum or some other get together of fans during the time before Mandaric arrived.
