Anyone else on here caught out by the car park being closed 30 minutes before kick-off on Saturday.
We arrived at 2.35 to find cones across the entrance and a couple of cars waiting to go in. I went to find out what was happening and was told that for Health & Safety reasons that parking facilities had to be closed 30 minutes before KO. That this had been the policy all through the premier League season. For a number of reasons , including health, I didn't Have a ST last season. We bought a parking permit this year because we didn't want to have to get to the ground an hour before KO. The parking attendant pointed out that in the small print on the back of the permit it does inform you of this. Obviously my fault for not reading the small print (but who dors?). What it does say in fact is - if you arrive less than 30 mins before KO you MAY not be allowed in. As you can imagine I weren't 'appy!
