Gman36 3,455 Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 11 hours ago, Sweetheart said: It could be turned into a positive,if the club built a secure multi-storey car park on the Albion ground. If they did this then it would provide jobs and secure parking for local business's and residents on non match days. A secure multi-storey car park permit could also be offered to the potential residents of the new builds that are happening around the stadium. It could also be used under the park and ride scheme to the city centre. It could be a solution that the club could put forward. The proposal as it stands, is not feasible for fans on match days and as you say the extra walking distance for some of the older supporters is a big thing. A multi storey car park would not have the capacity of all the street parking. Plus it would be a massive bottleneck. Has there been any study by the council demonstrating a huge problem that's going to be solved by this? Sounds a lot like fixing something that isn't broken. Oh and what a surprise fucks us over in the process. I'm going to fire an email over for this suggest others do the same. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This 100%, any statement we've put out for long enough now makes it looks as if we are doing something whereas in reality nothing is done except take it up ring piece every time whilst they chip away at screwing us up at every turn.

Colin Traive 22,699 Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Given the parking issues at QEUH (the Southern to you traditionalists) , there would seem to be a need for perhaps a major park and ride set up in the area to service match day demand at Ibrox as well as hospital the rest of the time. Now, if this was at the other end of the city..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basrah Bear 2,981 Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Ive emailed them to complain about it.

With Heart and Hand 8,949 Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 dont see how there could possibly be 30k plus travelling to Ibrox by car, i was at Ibrox when Gerrard was announced and the parking was terrible with cars practically abandoned all over the place and there was only 5-7 thousand there with most of them probably coming by car, if there was 30k parking for matches id imagine you wouldnt be able to move for all the cars, i may be totally wrong but i always thought the majority travelled by bus or public transport. How can 30k people get parked in the Ibrox area? thebooler, Redwhiteandblue and Johnny Dangerously 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 I genuinely don't think 35k come by car. There's the NI boys, which is a good few thousand and then supporters buses, which is probably the largest portion. Then the ones who just walk, a few thousand. Then the subway, which is probably correct. theblueoysterbar and thebooler 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
