I agree. I wonder if you'd get one after parking at a wasps game?
Conspiracy theory hat on here.
Could there be an inter company arrangement between these guys and that Ricoh outfit.
Seems odd that after 11yrs they decide to enforce restrictions that have been in place previously.
You are wrong. Last year a precedent was set when a company took an individual to court - the individual argued his £85 fine was disproportionate but the judge argued that the contract was valid as the person had knowingly entered into it by parking there.

There will have been some circumstances around that Grendel to have resulted in such an outcome. Did he ignore them or did he correspond with them and therefore admit charge? I suspect the latter.
Ah, so people have been hit in previous seasons.It is still an invoice that they are are sending you not a fine however they try to word it. Only government departments local or otherwise can send you a fine or PCN.
You might have to pay it as by entering their land you implied a contract arrangement by parking your car there. They can only take you to a county court, its not like a council parking fine which if you do not pay it the full powers of the state are swiftly bought to bear.
I have had 4 and not paid one despite their derisory fear attempts, but not since that case mentioned above which I hear has been a game changer.
I think it shows a lack of goodwill on the part of Tesco who must recognise there's a fair number of City fans who are their customers
Maybe make them aware as CCFC fans trade could be taken elsewhere.

I hadn't been aware of that.
Still seems more common currently though.

Anyone know what they charge wasps fans in car park c?
Prob no notices or staff at the car park!Just spoken to someone who didn't realise there was a match at the Ricoh today, made the mistake of thinking they could drive into shopping area and out again, only to fend up in queues of Rugby oyks waiting to get out too..so I guess they also use the car park on a match day...as others have asked, I wonder if they will get 'payment notices'.
I agree with everything you say except that it is a private car park and, having warned you off, you can't really complain if you ignore the warning and they take action.Lets put it like this;
The penalty notice is a fine and comes from official bodies like police or council. Failure to comply will result in you ending up in court but you have a right to appeal the ticket and provide evidence to try and get it quashed.
The private style charge notice is actually an invoice from a private company. Like any invoice you don't pay you could be taken to court for it. The private company rarely do this as the cost outweighs the process. Sometimes they might and then unless you prove the charge/invoice was excessive you may be forced to pay. However companies are reluctant to take this route as their 'invoice' is always 'excessive' by nature and their win ratio is poor plus they have cost.
Never admit liability and ignore them and hold your nerve, the probability is the threats will eventually stop. If you get an actual court summons then fight it and tell them you aim to prove the charge/invoice excessive and there are so many ways to fight them on technicalities too they may have got wrong and in all likelihood did.
I hate these people and I hate that the DVLA aides and abets them.

There are £4 quid typically and no issues finding space on current crowds and when it was busy a little walk away from the ground in the general direction home helped with the getaway.Plenty of other places about to park anyway if you don't mind a few minutes walk!
I pay £4 and park pretty much next to Tesco. Would rather do that and give someone local a few quid than pay £10 to Wasps.There are £4 quid typically and no issues finding space on current crowds and when it was busy a little walk away from the ground in the general direction home helped with the getaway.
you actually get a free 10 minutes before you are finedThing is you can park in Tesco and get away with it problem is you have to get there just before kick off and leave on time therefore not triggering the 2 hour limit.
Rugby fans can do that even better as the game is only 80 minutes long.
Are those the parking restrictions that are only in place when more than 10K are expected?

I think they get around it by putting ccfc fixtures up
In the travel plan theres a bit where CCC state the railway station, complete with special matchday services, will be open within 12 months of the stadium opening at the latest and that until it is open a bus service will be provided.If you read into the original planning application for the stadium a lot of conditions are being ignored.
