If you get there early enough you can park for free at the ground, theres a big council car park out front (Milehouse P&R). 30-40mins before kickoff would probably be more than enough given its preseason. Last one I rocked up 2mins before and had to get "creative" with my parking spot. Edited June 28, 2022 by redsince1994 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
