[Albion] Palace Game - Postponed [was on/off?]

[Herr Tubthumper]

Well seeing as PB (invariably, admirably) answers emails sent to him within the hour, wouldn't take much effort to get an update direct from the horse's mouth

The email will say no, in 30,000 words.

Five second job to google

There was no parking at the Uni yesterday, but there was some at the Bridge but I don't think it went on 'general sale' as people who use it every week got priority. There was definitely a lot less parking available. The Palace game will be exactly the same in terms of parking, unless it's rearranged to a day when the Uni isn't busy.

Interesting actually, l see the 1901 bus shuttle was still operating between the Amex and the Uni car parks, so presumably some must still have been parked there.

I assume 1901 have certain paid for rights that must be provided. They pay enough for it.

From the state of the bus they provide, they would be better off walking l think.

It was more the guaranteed parking space I was referring to, but they also get a bus to take them to their car. Which is nice.

Only those with a disability. It’s the first car park only.

Extra park and ride for a half full Boxing day match is a lot different to a full Amex

What?

 

[pure_white]

What?

there arent enough viable places to accomodate every car for a full attendance at the Amex. Boxing day was more viable becauss the real attendance was much smaller. That eint happen on a Saturday especially for the opposition.

Was not even half full , and you still queued over an hour to get in the uni car park

Do they have enough horses?

Do they have enough horses?

Neigh!

 

[pure_white]

Arriving on horseback may not be a bad idea but where can you 'park' a horse?

 

[thedonkeycentrehalf]

Lots of people mentioning adding P&R capacity but not sure where those buses and drivers would come from. Seagull Travel have already said that they have not been able to source as many coaches this season as previous years while every bus and coach company seem to have adverts on the back of their vehicles trying to recruit drivers as they are all so short of staff.

With no trains, bus companies are going to want to cover their own routes where they can make money before tying up resources for a one off football contract.

 

[pure_white]

Absolutely not enough busses and drivers

Some suggestions floating about that the club have asked for the game to be moved.

Friday or Sunday? Both likely shit with fallout from the strike on Saturday, if the supposed move is sanctioned by the Premier League.

Got told this too. Monday a possible date to be changed to - guess it’ll be up to the premier league.

Surely it can’t be on Monday as most of the players are on international duty from then?
