Having used all 4 cup vouchers from my Car Park A Season Ticket do I get priority when paying a tenner on the night of the Crewe first leg on 5th Feb or is it going to be a free for all and chaos all round

You either have to buy more vouchers from ACL or pay on the day with no priority. Stupid after you've paid out a lump sum at the start of the season. They should accommodate those fans paying for the vouchers in advance and not make them pay out more

I imagine it will be Chaos and all the TESCO lot will be out and about laying down the law if there is a chance of making money. Expect to be fleeced in some way directly or indirectly

Use public transport or Park and ride.

Lets face it given the number of tickets sold it is definately 'going to be one of those nights'

I paid 185 quid for my car park season ticket and am on crutches at the moment so I need to get as close as I can to the JH statue (hence buying the ST in the first place) - have fired off E Mail to CCFC on this.

The 4 voucher thing is a disgrace. If it was sisu they would be accused of profiteering.

However this is ACL. Their greedy snouts are firmly in trough. I assume the Sky Blue Trust are on the case. After all they are interested in supporters aren't they?

I'm not affected as dont park on the Ricoh site but still think its a disgrace that fans have to fork out more money just because of the teams progression in a cup!

I have just booked my parking place in car park C on line, presume there are still spaces left. Realise it's not that close for you but closer than the other off site car parks! If you book early at least you'll guarantee a space.

To avoid the mayhem( trust me it will be) we are going in two cars straight from work. Park up around 6, stroll to the casino for quarter past, 2 sherberts in there then up to seats at least 20 minutes before kick off( this will also be mayhem).

Going to buy a train engine and drive up. Probably cheaper.

Tbf I've used a friend pass for car park B when they've not made the game. Now they've out the part time junction / lights on the a444 you can get away pretty quick. Car park C does take a while though as those lights to take an age to change

The great thing about this fixture is, its excellent for the club in terms of ticket and programme sales, not to mention their share of hospitality and car park revenue. Compass will do well from the kiosks, the club shop will profit from the through traffic, the casino will do a fortune on the night, the local pubs and clubs and off site car parks will all benefit, 1000's Sky Blues from outside of Coventry and indeed Crewe fans will all bring their Wonga. This whole event will again demonstrate that CCFC needs the Arena and ACL and the council/Complex need the football club. Income streams will be generated all round on a winters night in February when ordinarily people would be tucked up in front of the TV.

Good shout! Just done the same. We normally park in C, but wouldn't want to risk paying on the gate on this occassion.

Normally do Tesco for night games but I'm not even going to try for this one. Gonna park well away from the ground, it will be chaos getting out from anywhere near the ground.
