Can anyone advise on how easy it is to park please? Thanks Car park at the stadium is a decent size; parking is free and stewards will direct you. But I would recommend arriving in good time. On-street parking is also available if it comes to it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep,but street parking only as a last resort.Last time I used a side street close to Monmore, had my side window smashed and lost all contents and stereo. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Sidney 292 Posted August 29, 2021 Thanks for parking advice. I'll aim to arrive in plenty of time to park in the car park and avoid the road parking. Much appreciated Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Sidney, This is the absolute best advice. Monmore is surrounded by industrial units and the East Park behind the closed back straight. There is no housing and therefore no prying eyes to keep a watch on things. This is not to say that Wolverhampton is intrinsically unsafe. As a last resort there is Priestfield Metro stop which has a park and ride with housing opposite. This is past the stadium as you are coming out of town. Would take you about 10 minutes to walk from there. I imagine that would be safer. But hey get there early have a beer and a burger/chips and you're sorted.

Morris scored 4 at NSS last time and don’t think ever had a decent meeting there. Lawson a track specialist and ridden the track the last 2 weeks, Wolves lot stronger and can see them winning by 10 at NSS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,802 Posted August 29, 2021 (edited) Is it possible to purchase tickets for the back straight terrace from the hut round that side of the stadium on the day as it has been before at the NSS? Edited August 29, 2021 by Bagpuss Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Col 856 Posted August 29, 2021 Never had problem parking at Monmore, big car park at stadium and they'll let you park inside the gates if that gets full, but never had a problem parking next to East Park either and it is quicker to get away. Got tickets for the midday encounter, haven't been to Monmore since Super Trooper farewell and will watch evening antics on TV. Panthers are the only team I can see winning at Monmore this year, if their second visit isn't on TV I'll go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
