There are a few challenges for those driving there, as you'll see in the preview.

Does anyone know if there is a charge to parking in their train station at that time of day?

Few hundred yards from the station to the ground???? More like over half a mile!!
Still, looking at the weather; Diamonds could avoid the humilation of being the first team to lose to Buckby this season! ;)

And it's a 1 in 3 hill going up. I hope the road works are to put in a Stannah* Stair Lift.



*other makes of stair lift are available

I remember this match from last year and there were cars everywhere along the main road and verges. As it looks like there are going to be road works as listed on the above mentioned preview I think I would rather not risk getting a ticket and just park in the station car park and worry about the cardiac hill after. :D

I think last year as well it was played on a Tuesday night which made things easier to a degree.

The station car park, which I used last season, is not overly large so I reckon might be a struggle to get a place. With all these parking restrictions no wonder the Bucks get small crowds. :D
