    ...parking is a bit tricky as there's no space in the main car park due to the new stadium being built on a large part of the old car park.

    Your best bet would be along Lawrenny Avenue which is opposite the entrance to the new stadium. After you've left the dual carriageway heading towards the ground, take your 1st turning left. You can either park in the street (as I do) or there's a school on the right which charges to use its car park.

    Alternatively, if you follow the road right to the end you come to the "Gol" 5-a-side football center. They charge £3 to park but give you a £3 voucher to spend on food/drinks inside - decent place tbh, can't go wrong.

    Have a safe journey to all those travelling.

    No offence Jeff, but I'd rather get greasy bum AIDS than ever come within a mile of your "stadium" ever again in my life.

    Hope yuou enjoy the game though. Presume you're optimistic?

    greasy bum AIDS

    Is that a particularly virulent strain?

    No probs mate - and get well soon btw :D

    Before the weekend I would have been absolutely confident - but am certainly not now. Spoke to my mates who went and they said we were absolutely dire - the worst we've been for a few years. And that comes on the back of another woeful performance against QPR.

    Dave Jones has wiped the floor with the players which is not something he does tbh so I'm hoping for a reaction from them. We'll see.

    Thanks Jeff. You gave us this advice last season which we followed and it all worked very well - apart from the result! We never expect anything at your place so we can't be disappointed!

    I'm assuming you mean the MillStad instead of building a new one? Quite simply - money.

    It was tentatively looked at but the WRU wanted rent + all matchday revenue from merchandise, food & drinks, corporate hospitality etc. A non-starter really.

    Plus the fact that it would rarely, if ever, be filled. The atmosphere in there with 20,000 for a Championship fixture would be dire.

    Our new stadium has been built mainly with funds recieved from the attached retail park.

    Because

    ...there's a time limit there apparently & quite a few cars have been booked.

    You could take a chance I suppose - but I wouldn't, same goes for parking in Hadfield Rd (straight across roundabout off slip-road) or along the grass verges opposite the new stadium. The wardens have a spree about 3 or 4 times a year - are you feeling lucky.
