Parked in that soccer city place and a ditch over bridge made from pallet wood, certainly has character Craven Park. Previous trips I've parked the other side of the ground and walked down a footpath to the ground.

I thought with the game not being on sky a ten minute delay would have been ok I know it's happened before as for the housing estate just brand new houses

Agree re kick of delay buddy


That's good to hear it's all getting re-developed
It's a bit spooky round there almost like a ghost town

There’s a simple answer to not getting in to see the game on time. Set off earlier. We set off at 5pm from Huddersfield, got parked up with a 10 minute walk to the ground. Inside the ground at 6.45pm. No problems at all. Appreciate people work and struggle to get away perhaps on a Friday. Sunday is the best day for travel but heyho seems to be Fridays now!

As you say people struggle to get away from work on a Friday
So getting off earlier is not possible at times, though it's very easy to say 'set off earlier'

The clubs and league need to take this into consideration

FWI I set off from manchester at 4.45
And only just made it in

No, the parking issues at the ground are an issue.

Mrs EW does have a permit for the car park, but with the way it's set up you do get issues.

However, as she does still have relatives over there, tends to set off much earlier so she can go visit. With that, often gets into ground in good time.

Yes, the housing estate nearby is in the process of being renovated.

Apparently, there are some new houses that have been built, and I believe Neil Hudgell has organised flyers to be sent out in the new builds to promote the club, should they be new to the area and possibly the sport
