It's bloody ridiculous the parking around BP, why the hell don't they build a new state of the art Stadium complex somewhere sensible like on waste land off Peaks Parkway.I'm sure that with a little help from councillors,such as a certain Mr. Defraitis the plans for such a development would pass without any problems.

The plan might get passed but funding the thing will be nigh on impossible in my view

Why can't the old Ramsdens car park be opened up on match days? That would help alleviate some of the problem especially if this was advertised as a match day parking area.i can see some residents taking unlawful action. I too have received threats to damage my car if it was left outside their property despite it not having any cones/signs preventing me from parking.

I think there should be some sort of one way system in operation on matchdays in the streets off Brereton Ave leading to Queen Mary Ave and Grimsby Road too. I've seen and had angry motorists get out of their cars to argue about who should reverse back go let the others pass. The bloke who got out his car for me had 20 yards to reverse to my 150 or so. Common sense would say he should but his anger meant I did.

Similar subject: a Town director lives opposite my mum's and he parks over the front of her house despite him having a drive and her's being the only house on the street without one. It'll be brought up at the next fans forum.

I agree. Streets such as Barcroft, Daubney and Tiverton etc should be made one way between Brereton Ave and Grimsby Road, like they are between Grimsby Road and Harrington Street. Would make it a lot better in my opinion.

I've removed cones and parked around the ground before, when I had a 15 year old Fiesta! The way I see it, I pay my road tax to park legally, they are acting illegally by placing cones there. The ground has been there since 1899, it is highly unlikely they lived there before the ground was built so they knew there would be football traffic for a couple of hours or so every other week.

Vicar, your logic is 100% correct but sadly non footballing residents and councils don't think about the big picture or logically!


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

I have lived around BP most if my life.
Parking has always been an issue.
Does my head in when people moan.
There are people who buy a house around here then complain about not getting parked on 20ish days of the year. It amazes me that they didnt know there was a football ground on the door step.

If ye dont like it then fookin move.


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.
