Important information for supporters travelling on the club coaches to Wembley...
HERE is some important information for supporters concerning the Official Coach Travel to Wembley Stadium for the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy Final on Sunday 22nd March 2015:
ALL coaches will depart from the BESCOT RETAIL PARK on Bescot Crescent (adjacent to Banks’s Stadium).
Car Parking
Please note that supporters are NOT PERMITTED to leave their own cars on Bescot Retail Park. Any supporter who chooses to do this risks the chance of their vehicle being towed away.
Furthermore, due to the Sunday Market, there is very limited parking available at Banks’s Stadium itself other than outlined below.
Alternative arrangements have been put in place and there will be 420 car parking spaces available as follows:
• 100 Spaces at Barhale PLC (On Bescot Crescent opposite the entrance to Bescot Retail Park);
• 120 Spaces at Banks’s Stadium (Yellow Zone car park behind the Park Inn Hotel); and
• 200 Spaces at Joseph Leckie Academy (On Walstead Road near the junction with West Bromwich Road).
Parking will be free of charge and will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis.
SUPPORTER CAR PARKING WILL BE EXTREMELY LIMITED AND ONCE THE CAR PARKS ARE FULL THERE WILL BE NO MORE SPACES AVAILABLE. AS SUCH, SUPPORTERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO MAKE THEIR WAY TO THE COACH DEPARTURE POINT BY ANY OTHER MEANS WHERE POSSIBLE.
Supporters are asked to arrive at the Retail Park on foot at 09:00 for departure at 09:30. Please note that the coach convoy will not be able to wait for late comers.
In total there will be 46 coaches travelling down to Wembley and supporters have been allocated tickets for specific coaches which will be numbered accordingly. Please ensure you bring your tickets which will be required to gain access to the coaches.
Please note that the coaches will not stop en route to Wembley.
Alcohol consumption and smoking on the coaches is illegal and will be strictly prohibited.
Coaches will leave Wembley Stadium no later than one hour after the final whistle. Once again, the coach convoy will not be able to wait for late comers.
