Does anyone know what parking is like at Carlton?

I went a few seasons back (saw them play Newcastle Town) and parked easily in their car park,
There weren't many there that day though, I think that they rarely get three figure crowds, but I imagine we'll take a few.
As I remember the ground is a little way from the built up area, so a bit of a walk if you can't get into the clubs car park.

It's game day people! Massive 3 points needed today to get a bit of confidence going.. Let's go there, look sharp and bring home the points lads!!

Fantastic to be off the mark with our first league win - sounds like a hard-fought one in difficult conditions and always nice to see three different players on the scoresheet

Decent performance, excellent result. The changes to the starting XI were positive and both Orosz and Oulton gave us something we'd been lacking - a bit of energy. Nabil was outstanding again and did brilliantly to put it on a plate for Brad for the first goal.

Opposition poor, but so were Newcastle.

Brilliant stuff, great win today, sounds like Oulton did well picking up the MOTM today too

Agree they weren't up to much about on a par with Newcastle who won again today, so much for my prediction they wouldn't get 30 points this season.

Great performance from the boys today and most importantly a response which was needed. Nice to get off the mark.. Wasn't the best set up but a friendly bunch..

Superb from nabil and always makes me smile to see good old Brad Harris put it in the net. Difficult conditions second half but nice to see the midfield a lot more sharpish today.. Also positive to see 2 on the sticks from set pieces.. Still needs some improvement in defence but definitely onwards and upwards...

Only slight negative was again another dug out rucus at the end I think after Leslie's goal.. Does anyone know what happened to spark that.. Didn't Paul lamb get sent to the changing rooms.. Hard to see from where I was sitting?

Excellent win and performance from the lads at Carlton, kick start season for us.

Come on, Diamonds let's win on Monday,
