We needed a quick getaway so left on 89 mins and we’re out in a couple of mins. Did you stay till the final whistle? A large number of spaces occupied by staff cars so that must reduce the pressure on leaving.

Yes. I did.

Walked back to the car park at a normal pace. The biggest delay was getting under the bridge, not out of the car park.

I'm really struggling with the way the club are handling this, this season....

45 mins to get out. Plenty on impatient people pushing into the queues making it even longer to escape.

Stewards seemed not to be taking any charge of getting the traffic flowing.

Honestly not sure if it saved us time over the Mill Road bus? But it saved us time in being able to arrive later.

Yes took me a fair amount of time to get out….re pushing in..steward clearly signalling to the car in front of me..they just ignored her and were close to running her over ..nutters!

Were you coming up from the lower bit of the car park?

We were in the line straight in front of the exit and, as we got close to our turn, we saw a car that looked like it had been told to stop but kept going, with the stewards briefly giving chase and clearly not happy.

Suspect it was one and the same.

Despite thinking I had a good space - about 10-12 cars along from the exit - it still took ages to get out. None of the cars coming from my right towards the exit were letting anyone else out at all, frankly I don't blame them, and were keeping pretty much bumper to bumper to stop anyone like me joining the line.

Yes I was….it had suddenly pulled out in front of me initially, I wasn’t that bothered …but the steward in question was directing ‘traffic’ and letting another line of cars out…she kept on raising her hand requesting it to stop ..it ignored her and was close to running her over….she took photos of the rear number plate and told me they wouldn’t be parking there again….not sure how they will be implementing that, unless they have a list of banned cars which they check on entry…if so I’ve never witnessed it …

Not difficult to spot if you know the car, colour and number plate when there is a single point of entry with stewards looking for it. They might’ve bought a ticket but they ain’t getting in!
