car park at stadium is £2.50 but suggest getting there early as it fills up, if full you can park on the One Stop Shopping free from 6-10 . Although there are roadworks on the a34 off M6 Junction 7 that is simplest route . If you come through the city centre there is a congestion charge now .

Students are on summer break . The club do have a link with the local university on their radio show and website . On admission students showing their student card can get in for £5 (ages 17-22). For the school children 12-16 it's £2 and under 11's are free . Naturally with covid restrictions the club have not been able to continue visits to schools or to shopping areas, fetes, scouts and guides etc

METCHECK IS USUALLY QUITE ACCURATE .

weather forecast is ok for Wednesday ..21 with a quick shower at 3pm which will aid the track watering .

not any more . But it allows fans who want a certain area a ticket that shows that

Maintenance work being done on the server I have been told but should be all up and running again soon.

BIRMINGHAM are thrilled to confirm pay on the gate admission will return for Wednesday's cup tie with Redcar at Perry Barr (7.30).Approval has been given for supporters to arrive and pay cash or card which means it is not necessary from now on to buy in advance.It's the news the club have been waiting for with many of the older fans unable to attend previously due to no internet access.Club co-owner Peter Mason said: "This news has come a massive boost to us and we now need to see the supporters turning out in force."The weather forecast remains solid and we are in for a great night of racing on Wednesday."It will also be good to see some younger fans now the school holidays are here and I hope families come along for a great night out."

Just to clarify there are a few tables where it is for Mr "Smith" and party ..... no full names, dates of birth, addresses, phone numbers , bank details , card details ..... how many Mr "Smith's" are there etc ???? As the person complaining will never use the system it doesn't affect him and when things return to being able to pay at the gate will he be standing in the queue to anonymously put his cash down and watch his local side???

it does NOT publish the name and exact location of every customer in the inside seating area . A few tables are reserved and the occupants have some family and friends who join them and it is NOT full details . It is NOT a breach of data protection . Nearly everyone who uses the system says it is a good and easy to use system ....but I suppose not everyone can be happy
