for those who got tickets on Holford Estates, give us a clue on location round the estate. Just to see which area have clamp downs. I park there and no problem.

Thinking about it, it probably is a private road-turn left into the estate from brookvale road,up to first island turn right still on holford way-side road on the right,parked on corner (not on double yellow).Ticket has "unauthorised parking" as reason .

Be warned about parking on the Holford Estate (off Brookvale Road). I got a ticket after the Arsenal game (£60 or £40 if paid witihin 7 days) for parking on double yellows. I and many others have been doing this for some time as it's a private road, but they sent a private firm out to issue the tickets. They were also out Boxing Night!! after the Spuds game and again after the Sunderalnd game as I saw a few cars with tickets on.

So they are not Council tickets then? Dont pay it.

I can understand why local residents might need some protection to allow them access to their own homes. But I hate the way football fans are shit on time and time again, denied access to industrial estates etc that are not in use. Very petty and another sign how c**ts run the world.

Just park in one of the building car parks round there.

Believe it or not, I'm being serious. In all the years I've sold the fanzine there I have never, ever seen a car get so much as a ticket.

I parked there once probably 3 seasons ago - no problem at all, seriously !

Park under the flyover just up from Holford Estate, plenty of space and no yellow lines!

Park on the Trinity Road right outside the ground. It'll take you ages to get away after the match but you're guaranteed not to get a ticket. They even put those nice yellow cones out to help you parallel park.

Do you sell H&V near McGregor's statue? If so, I bought one off you on Saturday.

Usually yes, but this Saturday I was outside the North Stand gates. You got yours from Greg.
