What about using a push bike and padlocking the bike onto the jimmy hill statue.

[matesx]

Are there always free spaces, Matesx, or does it get full at times?

i get there about 1pm and no problems. it does get pretty busy nearer to ko time but rarely full.

I have parked in the Lythalls Lane Industrial Estate car park, on...you guessed it, Lythalls Lane, before now. I'm a semi-regular buying beer from the Byatts Brewery Taphouse which is one of the units on the mini industrial estate so I'll often pop in to buy a few bottles of beer, sling them in the boot out of sight and check if they don't mind me leaving the car and picking it up after the game. Never had a problem thus far despite the "unauthorised vehicles will be clamped" signage.

There's always the old flat tyre trick

No use me getting there at 1pm on Friday, Matesx, the game doesn't kick off until 7.45pm.

What, you stab everyone else's tryres so they can't even get into the car park?

No, that would be silly. Stab your own and save the three quid. Maybe stab all four so it doesn't look suspicious.

Alternative strategy.......

Tell your wife to go to London another day and get her priorities right as you are going to the match

 

[Otis]

Yeah, stabbing all 4 is definitely less silly than stabbing just 1.

Can then blame Isis or Russian spies, or one of my ex girlfriends.

She has an appointment at the Russian embassy.

I think it's to receive her next mission dossier.

Not as if you are subtly trying to get her deported or anything

Is it like Mission impossible .......... get Grendel to say something complimentary about a current Cov player.

Ha!

She actually said to me just two hours ago 'Do you think the British will block me travelling to Russia?'

I said 'No chance .........though they might try and stop you trying to get back in again.'

Tell Putin to wait, the Sky Blues are in the play off places.

I actually tried to explain the playoffs to her yesterday, but I just got a glazed expression on her face.

Explained it 3 times, but she still didn't get it.

The glazed expression may be disinterest rather than a lack of understanding; I get the same from my other half.

She actually said she didn't understand it at all.

Just park on Cj's drive

Shuuuuuush. I can only fit 30 cars on there.

Or 4 of them

They're from his dinky collection. Can get 40 matchbox ones on there though!

 

[standupforcity]

Yep... 'Just Park'... . recommend

 

[thekidfromstrettoncamp]

Looking at that map Rowley's green industrial is not in any zone someone might put you right on that one . Don't park in Burbages as the zone goes right out to St Giles church passed the sign many times. Parking in Bell Drive is also signed. Think parking zones are at the least 1 and a half miles from the ground .Fit guy like yourself you are fit aren't you 15 minute jog . I'll get the St Johns to wait outside for you

Do they have room for your massive GMC truck with the black paint and red stripe / spoiler?

The Hen lane club used to run a mini bus service to the Ricoh not that long ago?

"stop using personal pronouns", that's what.

 

[Liquid Gold]

That new Dhillons (?) Brewery has free parking and is right by the Ricoh.

 

[wal3590]

Its rare the parking permitted areas are patrolled at night games, (council workers working past 5 doesn't happen anymore) also I believe the rules only apply for gates over 10k?
