Car parking at RSH - crazy charges from club?

[sifter]

I usually park at RSH and it costs less than a fiver per match. Its annoying because you have to walk into the building to pay but ok.

This season we can pay £240 - £12 per match for a car parking season ticket from the club.

Why should it cost more than twice as much to buy parking from the club in advance? Am I missing something that might justify this?

It has always been a rip-off since we moved to SMS. Best to park in the town centre car parks and walk down, much, much cheeper with no congestion when you get back to your car.

I always park in East Street multi storey . Just try to avoid the crackheads that loiter around the top floor.

My point is - how can the club charge 12 pounds per match if the car park costs less than 5 pounds? Is that really club that does that? Or are they bring ripped off by the hospital? Something is not right.

Knowing football and the PL it’ll be as simple as greed and trying to wring as much out of the loyal fan base as possible

With so many places around town to park up for free, it seems odd to choose to pay somewhere. Unless of course mobility is an issue.

Think I usually park down by the Yacht club, thought that was £5 a day.

I guess you lot must have no issues with drink driving?

If you're driving / parking tomorrow remember boat show is on, and there are 4 cruise ship departures.
