What are the canal boat options? Might take as long as walking but will save the wear and tear on footwear.

I'm driving up from London. Where is the best place to park to make a quick getaway back onto the M6? Don't mind a bit of a walk. Is Star City likely to have spaces?

Thanks

I also might use Star City.   Has 2,400 spaces.  Can you just leave your car for 3 plus hours without getting a charge??

I'm really hoping to receive some robust hard wearing boots on Christmas Day so I will be able to attend this match

I use star city every match with no issues. Well, someone drove into the back of me as I was leaving once, but other than that...!
