sjk2008 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Now on sale. BH weekend, hopefully a bit of sunshine beside the seaside, Mayweather v McGregor the following night for that are both interested & strong enough to power through. Fill your boots.

sjk2008 Posted August 21, 2017 Author Share Posted August 21, 2017 Right then - shite football aside as we all know the match will likely ruin a good day out, where's everyone boozing this Saturday? I've only ever done Blackpool (A) on a Tuesday night, so the Saturday pub crawl in Blackpool will be new to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latics_Fanatic Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Thinking of driving to this one. (Yes I know, who doesn't get the train to Blackpool away, especially on Bank Holiday weekend...) Where is the best place to park? I imagine around the ground will be hammered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryBosch Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 I fucking hate the town of Blackpool. It's grimmer than grim and I would love to never have to visit the place again in my life. I'm gutted at our shit start to the season and bored shitless already. All that said, I can't wait for Saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a huge council car park on Seasiders Way just up from the ground. But yes it could be absolutely rammed. On the bright side there shouldn't be much football traffic...

Fyldelatic Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 (edited) Those council-run car parks near the ground are expensive. £3.50 for 3 hours, £6 for 6 hours. Well patrolled by wardens so don't exceed the time. If you come down Central Drive and turn inland away from the coast, you will find plenty of free parking, and if you are there about an hour before, you'll have little trouble finding a space. Try to find a residential street with other private cars parked. There is no residential parking zone there.

Really impressive that. After the start we've had I thought we may struggle to hit a thousand for this, I did forget it was BH weekend though.

deyres42 Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 It was bad enough at the ticket shack the last day, be even worse on Saturday. And their stewards seem very keen for you to sit in a seat that you haven't chosen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe these tickets are for behind the goal. Last time we were there pay on the day ended up on the side. I usually prefer that but this was an awful view.

steveoafc Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Just been to ticket office, no queue if anyone's thinking of popping down before they go off sale at 3pm. So I imagine still the 150 or so left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
