It would be great to know how many spaces they actually have, if that gets full what happens (it appears to be in the middle of nowhere) and the price as presumably will have to bring cash.
Midlandgull - i was looking at their Facebook page yesterday and someone asked about parking, Bishop Cleeve responded with " we've got a large car park and also overflow grass pitches for parking on if needed. Both are on site"

Looking on Google earth, its not a huge carpark however they do have a lot of overflow space on grass

Capacity is 1350 and over half sold

Midland-like Solihull Moors it is very close to a housing estate and there are lots of on road parking possibilities that are not too far away. The overflow car park is the field next door to the main ground/pitch and is unlikely to fill up.
I'm planning to take my chances and park in the village because the walk isn't too far and it'll save a car park space for somebody else.
Weather forecast is currently dry!

The ground’s only about 10 mins drive from cheltenham town centre, having lived in the area there’s not really much in Bishops Cleeve given its size. I think it’s a plastic pitch too, let’s hope we’re over that…

I hope we win, and I hope that we can give them a massive payday with a bumper crowd.
