Re: Southampton Parking
We always park at Royal South Hants Hospital, and will be doing so this weekend given the price of the trains. Its always quiet at the weekend and is about 15min walk from the ground.

Re: Southampton Parking
Last time we went we parked as close as we could find because of Storm Dennis. I'm sure it was the Hindu Temple about 5-10 mins walk away on Radcliffe Road.

Re: Southampton Parking
Without being able to check my ticket, are we in the north eastern corner of the ground, or the south west corner??
Re: Southampton Parking
Last time I was there (a few years ago) it was the NE corner as we had the sun in our eyes on a February daybox_of_frogs wrote: ↑Tue Oct 19, 2021 12:42 pmWithout being able to check my ticket, are we in the north eastern corner of the ground, or the south west corner??

Re: Southampton Parking
There used to be a pub a few roads away where you could park easily. It was run by someone who looked just like the Turin Shroud but I don’t think it’s there anymore.

Re: Southampton Parking
If seats are in that northern stand then Ocean Quay Marina's probably closer.box_of_frogs wrote: ↑Tue Oct 19, 2021 12:51 pmThanks. I thought it was the NE end, so i'll go with that!

Re: Southampton (a) - General Info
dermotdermot...that would be Andy the landlord of the Bent Brief. Great bloke. The pub has since been renamed I think.
Re: Southampton (a) - General Info
Southampton is a dreadful city, one of the very worst. The people who populate the city centre make the citizens of Burnley look healthy, wealthy and wise. I spent 2 years there.
That said, there is a cluster of pubs and food places on Oxford Street which are quite nice, not too far from the ground.
