A polite little request for future home games.......

Post by Pigman »

...........to help speed up the access to the car park and the games at Raunds, it'd be a great help if you could have the right money to hand when arriving and parking on the over-spill carpark, or at least smaller denomination notes.

This will really speed up the entry process for you as customers and avoid cars queuing up to the round-about as they did a few times on Thursday - we're amateur stewards learning the role and juggling cash and tickets while trying to get change for a £20 note for a £1 concession fee was a tad beyond me at times, as many of you saw ;)

Just a polite request which will help us to help you get into the game quicker - many thanks.

Was there a cost to park? Or did I misread that? Nobody took any money off me. ;)

No, parking is FREE !!! We collected the match entrance fee at the overspill carpark entrance as there is no turnstile that end and we lost a few entrance fees at the first game as some people parked there and then just walked into the ground - so we issued match tickets to people as they drove into this car park. Let me stress again PARKING IS FREE (unlike some other grounds in the near vacinity that will charge you more to park than we charge to watch the game ;) ).

It seemed to work well enough.........although if you know better let us know, we're happy to try and improve all aspects of the operation :D

Maybe we should apply a 'No Change Given' policy, Jim?! ;)

Do you accept cheques?

I'm sure we can (dazzler over to you), but given the admission is £2 for adults or £1 for concessions it'd be far easier for us if it were cash.

Cash is easiest of course. I assumed the Cheque request was a joke, hence the lack of a reply. Of course a Cheque for £20 will get admission for 1, with an AFC Diamond Burger [I'll have to check with the kitchen on that]
