Thanks for the info. Iv'e booked ny space. It cost £10 plus 3% (??) so total cost was £10.30. Very easy to do and the car park is at the ground. You can park from about 10am, so good if you arrive at OT early.

been a few years since my last trip up to OT, but we parked down the road at the cricket ground which was convenient, and the walk to the ground takes you right past the trafford pub.

on that occasion there were some road works nearby, and a capacity crowd, so getting out was a bugger, but i can't see it being such an issue on saturday.

There are loads of nearby places (such as schools) that offer their car parks on Match-days (whether that will be the same for our match, i'm not sure). Can park for a about £5, within a 15 minute walk of the ground. There will be people waving you in with 'Match Day Parking' signs. Probably best to ignore the first ones though, as they start quite a way from the ground.

Just wanted to add my own advice to fellow Gulls supporters thinking of driving to Old Trafford (Stretford)

I have used parkatmyhouse.com on a few occasions to park my car for an event at old trafford. It's a great scheme as long as you ensure you pick a reputable provider with a good number of reviews and feedback. On Sunday immediately after getting my ticket I booked my space where I parked before - 4 minutes walk to the ground and the space is reserved from 1.00pm to 10.30pm in case of extra-time and penalties, oh and you avoid the big queues getting out of the car parks too! - slightly more expensive at £11.00 but well worth it.

My top tip for the day.
May not be the original, but I am the best 'TauntonGull' .... See I can do signatures too, coz I am a real boy!

Dammit! Beaten to it.

See Denspad's post above about parkatmygaff.com, top notch service, used it a couple of times for big sports events and it has been a proper job.

I have been relaibly informed from an Old Trafford regular that the cricket ground car park is the best bet and it only cost 3-4 pounds and near the police station as well.

Got a mate who's a season ticket holder at OT and he says theres loads of free street parking a short walk from the ground and he's never had a problem with Rick. :keepie:
