Tony Le Mesmer Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Just now, ketteringram said: I'd think demand for parking from now on, will plummet. I read Season over somewhere. So attendances will fall off rapidly. Plus, hardly any Saturday games left now. Surely crowds are lower for weeknight games. Hell by the time we've had the big summer clear out, we'll be able to park in the players car park next season. Suits me sir! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should ensure the Derwent is clean enough to dive in to at the River Gardens when we finally celebrate promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abu Derby Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 It's a shame that the old bridge with its steps are to replaced. There's something oddly amusing whenever somebody trips on the phantom last step when heading towards Chad. I will also miss the general abuse given out to an unsuspecting member of the public when they are walking in the opposite direction to everybody else - especially if the protagonist is pushing a bicycle.

Car dodging from exasperated people who have been queuing 40 minutes to get out of the fireplace car park is also quite good fun when trying to get on the bridge. As is standing in the back of the queue to get over the bridge right in the path of rather large ancient double deckers and people vans when they let them go from the Wyvern bridge well after full time in a scene reminiscent of the start of the Le Mans 24 hours race.

Genius logic though, we could cut queues and waiting times in A&E simply by telling everyone to pay more attention to what they are doing....why didnt anyone think of that before?

I Am Sheep Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Why do so many people use the footbridge over to Meadow Lane? For Christ sake there's another footbridge over to Highfield Lane! I live on Wood Road so parking isn't an issue for me but the clusterf**k at the Meadow Lane footbridge is, until I discovered it was quicker to walk down the side of Costco. We really are as sheepy as our nickname suggests sometimes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
