BP1960 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) Don't park on surrounding streets where there are residents only signs, the locals aren't very friendly. Edited January 23, 2017 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego_Sideburns Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I bought one of the limited number of North Stand Car Park Season Tickets, but I thought you could still park on there for £5. I get waved through by showing the CPST, but I see drivers stopping at the gate, presumably to pay, before entering the car park. BTW I also see people paying the guy at the last house on the left before the car park gate, to park on his drive presumably for less than £5. The Club's 'Fan Guide' says parking is £5, but I appreciate it hasn't been updated since last season. http://www.oldhamathletic.co.uk/documents/first-time-fan-guide-page-guidetemplate210-2920445.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for people stopping - if you get a meal and game ticket deal, then you get car-parking so perhaps those stopping are giving their name to get access?

Others are directed onto the main part. Away fans certainly pay their fiver and are directed towards the Chaddy End of the car park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combo Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Is everybody waving around a pink laminated card around as they drive through ...absolutely no checks .... Maybe that's why there are a lot more cars parked up than the "Only 50 car park season tickets available" statement at the beginning of the season ?

Maybe that's why there are a lot more cars parked up than the "Only 50 car park season tickets available" statement at the beginning of the season ? I think the intention was to limit the issue to 50 @ £100 with the rest paying £5 per match, making more money over the season from regular attenders. If it was felt there was a need to stop non-car park ST holders from parking, it would also have to apply to away fans, which it doesn't at present.

Combo Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 In that case why I have never seen any pay on the day cars entering ? Unless I always arrive in the convoy of CPST holders ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latics and England Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 I have seen plenty of people being turned away despite the car park being half empty. I am also fairly certain the price list when you go in no longer includes the cost of an 'on the day' car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
