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?

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

Not at all doubting you, but if it's free and right next to the Ricoh, the place must be rammed every home game mustn't it and there would surely be no spaces.

Unless it's a 500 space car park of course.

For which the Lincoln game (should) be. They've sold 3500 I believe, whether they bring them all being a Tuesday night game I don't know. But should be a good gate.

They are always on social media trying to drum up business on match days advertising that they have free parking. I think not that many people know about it yet.

Otis you do realise that all these FREE spots will be full - is it part of your plan to be the only vehicle in the Ricoh carpark ?

That's interesting. Just checked and that street is definitely in the no parking without a resident permit zone.

Just park in the shopping centre car park and either buy a £50 Tesco/M&S/Game/Next/Greggs voucher for use in the future, or get some shopping after the game and top up the spend to £50 by buying a voucher.

If you do park in the Tesco car park you definitely need to get the £50 receipt. I’ve parked there twice this season and got a parking notice on both occasions. Once you send them a photo of the receipt they drop their attempted fine.

Branstree drive off Lythalls Lane has a carpark for the residents it is private land and has no restrictions.
I park there sometimes.
Looks a bit rough but have never had any problems I used to own a property on that street.
Even the road has no signs.

If you buy a £50 Greggs voucher, you'll have to pay parking at the hospital instead

I might buy one of these from China



Then just get a random fella to pick people up from streets just outside the zone and take them to the ground.

Obviously make it sky blue.

I normally park on Woodshires Road, just off Rowleys Green Lane and around 10 minute walk. Can always get a space, even when we had 28K against Accy.

Well I didn’t bloody know did I!!!

You can easily be at the Russian Embassy for 3 or 4 hours.

Luckily, I rang them anonymously this morning and told them not to touch the door handles.

When my missus got there she said the place was deserted.
