Well b back 3,186 Posted May 2, 2019 The leisure centre by the ground or park at Sutton Coldfield or Gravelly Hill and train in. Normally if you park at leisure centre nightmare to get out but I am working on the assumption that wether we win the title or not we will be given 10 minutes celebration time after the game, prior to their lap of appreciation. There will however be 46000 there so going to be busy. If you park on roads around the ground you will have kids / teenagers charging you to look after your car. Pay when you get back.

Snitterfield Yellow 8 Posted May 3, 2019 Quote I have always used the car parking at the Star City leisure complex. Parking is free, plentiful and there are no time limits. According to Google it is 1.7 miles from Villa Park and a 25 minute walk (I reckon I walk it in less). It saves paying to park and avoids all the traffic near the ground. Getting away after the game is easy as well. Shame my loyalty points were not high enough to be able to get a ticket! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daz Sparks 1,140 Posted May 6, 2019 I parked in Star City in the end, which was ok, but a decent walk to the ground. But my overarching impression of the said walk was the phenomenal amount litter on the Streets of Aston, my word we are so lucky to live in City such as Norwich, for many reasons......

Yeah, it’s when you do an away game that you realise how lucky we are Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
It's Character Forming 1,160 Posted May 6, 2019 (edited) I parked at a coach company 10 mins from the ground who charged £5 and were a friendly bunch of guys who were happy to point an away fan in the right direction! When I got back after all the celebrations there were only 2 cars still in the car park, mine and a family with young children who made it back at the same time. but yes pretty untidy area you have to be honest!

......and Smith must score. 1,332 Posted May 6, 2019 Parked in NCP in city centre. Sunday rate £5 all day. Time for a quick one in Spoons before the Wellington opened at 10am. Taxi to ground. Three points. Pretty much a perfect day.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
