Yeah let's hope other proprietors don't exploit that and hit us for an extra couple of quid

Fortunately I don't have to pay parking as I have a relative in hen lane with off road parking, but I think the parking prices at the ground are excessive it's only a pound to park in West Orchards for two hours but ten pounds at the ground. The parking restrictions in the "local" area are just forcing people to pay the money as they can't even get the train sorted.

After Tuesday nights game returned to the car park C to find the wing mirror had been hit/kicked as it had gone back on itself, a couple of other cars close by hadn't been as lucky and the wing mirrors were completely off!

How pointless, but disappointing to pay £10 a game and the company must just disappear at kick off?

So do City get anything from this parking charge? Now I won't park there like so many others have decided. It's a disgrace.

I doubt they will get any more than they used to, think thr car park was worth £4k last season. I park in b just because my grandad can't walk far. Getting in is a ball ache, takes for ever, them ticking people off a list sheet. One game, there was something on at the Ricoh and there were no spaces in car park b. I'd say its been a disaster moving over, they seem very unprofessional. We're supposed to get 4 cup games free, there seems to be no way of checking this, I've not attended thr JPT games so will it be classed that I have used 1 (which I have vs Portsmouth) or 3 (which I haven't inc. The 2 JPT games)? They don't do ANPR like the previous people so I presume of we get a couple more cup games I'm gonna get stung.

Not sure what you are trying to imply, Wasps own the management company?

Why wouldn't they just do it all in house and have 100%?

Ah, that would be interesting to see.

It was RFC, so I sort of didn't think it would be swinging that way!

So what is the company name?

If you are talking about these people http://www.apcoa.co.uk/contact.html then they only list Skydome parking as a Coventry site at present http://www.apcoa.co.uk/parking/coventry.html.

(took me 7 mins to find that, 7 mins I could have been watching telly )

None of the directors of Apoca Parking Services are directors of Wasps.
https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/02492280/officers
They are simply a big parking management company, manages over 8000 locations.

The Skydome car park is appallingly badly run. The card payment on the ticket machines hasn't worked for months, the exit barriers regularly breakdown and the entrance is too narrow so people regularly scratch their cars getting in.

Can't fit my car through without the wheels being hammered, it's really narrow.
