    If you haven't set off yet, get a move on. There's an accident on M62 and it looks like we are being diverted off the motorway at Jct 24 Halifax. Google Maps is showing minimum 40 mins delay.

    Glad you got there in time. M64 is always blocked!

    The biggest delay today was getting away at full time. Parking across where Harvesters and Premier Inn is won't be happening again.

    I thought our car parks were bad. We didn't move an inch for nearly an hour. Sat and watched the Chesterfield vs Notts County extra time and pens on a phone while we waited.

    Got there really early to use the car park outside the away end like for the league game, to be told it was full. Parked in Harvesters for a fiver and thought great it's three quid cheaper than across the road.

    At about 6pm we had gone left away from the ground, around the roundabout and back up the other side back to Harvesters. A proper pain.

    What great set up though traffic control aside. The fan zone was really good and open after the game too. Football Stadium, arena, Harvesters and a Premier Inn all next to eachother.
