Class. Good to see that you know the official gate already 

Chill out, it’s very much tongue in cheek. But given it is BH weekend, a number just like myself will be away & unable to attend.

Not sure how feasible it is and to be fair hasn't been something we've needed until recently but for a STH like me who is going to be watching from home tomorrow due to work could they bring in the facility to release the seat like they did on the old ticketing site?

Looks like there's 14 left available in block 5 of the Hamil then that is sold out.

We are supposed to have the facility to release our seats, but I haven't got a clue how you do it. Not on Ticketmaster, I could on the old club shop site. 🤷

Yeah I remember that as they did push it a bit like when we had the Newport home game that was a home sellout with about 8500 home fans. If there is the facility I can’t see it anywhere as you say.

they know my ticket is free as ive swapped it for one in the paddock ! 

Come on Vale, do the business tomorrow. A win will as good as seal promotion for me. Can't go 5 minutes without thinking about it. Very sad I know. Come on you whites UTV ⚽⚽

Wondering if anybody can help me out, I feel like such an idiot. My first time to VP in about 5 years and I didn’t realise you could prebook parking and now it’s all sold out. Last time I was up I got parking on the street but there were only about 4,000 of us there so doubt I’ll manage that this time. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated? I’m planning on getting to Burslem at about 2 which I’m hoping will be plenty of time. Thanks in advance

That steep hill off Westport Rd, where the church is, down from the (shamefully left to rot) Burslem Sunday School. Often plenty of street parking there. 

Failing that a lot of people park on Federation Rd in front of the businesses there but with an 11k crowd that road will be a <ovf censored> nightmare before and after the game.

From Hamil Road, I turn onto Gordon Street and there are plenty of places in those back streets. Even on a busy day as long as you're there by around 2:15, you should be fine. 

If you come up Newcastle Street and go straight across the lights by the Town Hall you will see Doulton Road on your right there is a a council car park there. Perhaps get there by 1.30?

If you are lucky or very early you might find a space on the pay and display in the center, next to what used to be the town hall. It’s free or certainly used to be on a bank holiday.

Or park by the Titanic brewery and walk thru

Correct. 500/1000 season ticket holders away on holiday.
