I'm going hoping for the best but honestly expecting the worst. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
*JJ 511 Posted August 4, 2021 19 hours ago, GiveusaB said: As for best route: My advice would be to get off the M6 at junction 5 (if you're coming from the South) and follow the A452 for approx 4/5 miles (it's a fairly busy road, but usually keeps moving) eventually turning left on to A453, follow till near the stadium and turn left on to Holford Drive (park on this road). Stadium is 5 mins walk. All told...it's probably a 20 mins drive (in rush hour) from Jctn 5 M6.....then only 10 mins when going home No: use Junction 7. There is little traffic using this route (A34), only 2 miles, and it is much simpler than wandering round Aston! I park on the A34 outside the warehouses being too tight to pay the stadium for parking, and don't want to fight my way round the island to One Stop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KIRKYLANE 537 Posted August 4, 2021 Hope they get a good crowd tonight. Would hate to see it close. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StephenMiller 75 Posted August 4, 2021 How bad is the roadwork situation near the stadium ? I'm coming from Tamworth, we usually drive past the entrance to the stadium & swing back round to park in the One Stop. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Argos 262 Posted August 4, 2021 There’s no doubt there will be a good turnout tonight, but they will not get the same for the remainder of the season, So 1st poor turnout and that will be the end, very sad but understandable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The H Man 252 Posted August 4, 2021 talking of guess the attendance - I see on press release it says crowds only 1/3 of figure in 2019, I attended the Glasgow match and around 400 maybe a few more in, so were Brum getting 1200 in 2019? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
