Guys I can't tell you how angry and disgusted I am at the moment and probably not the best platform to air my views, but I'm going to anyway!
This comes from a fan that is a season ticket holder and goes to all the away games, never missed a single league game last season and proud of it. For the away games I send my wife to buy mine and one others tickets, you'd think the club would be happy with that.....well no, they want to fine me for the privilege of parking in car park 1 whilst she went to buy Bradford away the tickets, oh and dared to take a stroll in the club shop at the same time!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (see attached)
Someone is bound to say the club have no control over who the company fines, well I don't give 2 flying hoots, the club must have instigated this.
My wife was going to do the same tomorrow to buy the Charlton Tickets and I'm seriously thinking of not bothering this has wound me up so much, in fact I'm that angry I may just throw the towel in and spend my money on something else (I know I won't but there are others that will if this happens to them)
Martin would you like to take this up with the club for me please? My wife is going to take this with her to the ticket office tomorrow and complain.
I'm not paying it, end of. I don't care about all this 'it's a private company so they can't make you pay, I shouldn't have had the fine in the first place.

The are clear signs warning you not to park in Car Park one.
-
Are there any signs on the entrance to the car park informing people of any penalties that maybe incurred?
Parking eye are a right set of cowboys
-
I can understand but there is a big sign when driving into car park 1 saying permit holders only and numerous announcements at the game saying not to park in car park 1 due to restrictions.
-

Yes. You can't miss it

You're moaning about a fine when there are clear sings telling you not to park there. What did you or your wife for that matter think would happen?

oops sorry, red mist blurring my vision
-
I just drive around the stadium and park right next to the ticket office doors when I get tickets. I can see where you're coming from but I can't see why it's the clubs fault?
-
Would have been far easier to park in Car park two rather than ignore the warnings. Save yourself the hassle next time.
-
Yes the club rent out the car park to another company. Not the club's fault
-
For me I'd be say the club's owner trying to burn down the stadium for an insurance payout or bringing in a bunch of mercenaries who had no interest in putting in even an ounce of effort would be the lows of Doncaster Rovers' recent history, but perhaps hosting a company that is willing to issue fines to people who park where they are not supposed to actually does plumb new depths.

What about the people paying respects to their loved ones in the memorial garden

What about the people paying respects to their loved ones in the memorial garden
There are other places to park.

To be honest guys I have always parked there for years when picking tickets up, never noticed the signs go up but still, she was there buying from the club on a non match day when the car park was empty so what is the problem?
-
The problem is this suddenly appeared seems to be no notice suddenly putting signs up saying cowboy eye controlled car park, nothing on the club website, if it was it must have been once it should be reiterated virtually everyday till people get used to it stacks of people park in that car park to get tickets, whats the point of signs in the ticket office after you've parked none at all!!! So if its now restricted who's using it? besides bugger anybody now if I was being really really cynical ........................................................................ I could also have an uneducated guess as to who's carpark it now is which would just boil down to moving money around between separate companies under the same umbrella

It has been mentioned several times on the website and on match days.
The signs are huge, you can't miss them.
Car park one is now allocated for the people work in the various offices on site.
If you see the signs and still decide to park there, then you do it at your own risk.
-
I wouldn't pay it and would let them keep sending threatening letters. Eventually, when the company realises that they're getting nowhere, the letters will cease.

Thanks for that. I wasn't aware.

So basically you're throwing a tantrum because you've got in trouble for doing something there are fairly obvious warnings for. Especially when Car Park 2 is probably closer, and there's nothing to stop you just parking outside the ticket office.

You really are missing the point Frosty that car park has been used for over 10 years by people picking tickets up using the shop or going up to the main reception yet again virtually nil communication just like the South Stand that sort of thing needs reiterating every damn day on the website not every so often when within a couple of hours its vanished off the feed,.
Signs yes they are there but thinking logically the club have decided to stop people parking all day and commuting/car sharing somewhere else if youve parked there for years what makes you think the signs are not on all carparks now.
So you park up walk into the ticket office to buy your tickets to be confronted with printed signs don't park in car park 1 you'll get fined ....too late........
"car park 1 is now allocated to people working in various offices in the Stadium"
do they need that many parking spaces get lost do they, will half a dozen people popping in throughout the day to buy tickets and buy merchandise make any difference will it hell especially when theres another car park and thats allowing for part of the third car park being rented out for motorcycle training.
its cobblers and moneymaking and no doubt somebodies signed a 20 million year contract with a company who's reputation precedes them!!!!!!
What should have happened is there should be a 30 minute limit on parking unless the vehicle is logged in onto the system, a little terminal in the reception that logs them onto the parking system for the day, just like every supermarket camera controlled car park has

I have a ticket from when I went to work the company always cancel my ticket what annoyed me about the last one was the photo show 10-15 empty spaces around me , car park does have big signs up but I do understand your frustration , if you contact the club I'm sure they would help you out as they can see how long you stayed

DONT PAY THE CYNTS A BEAN.
Parking eye dont look up for your details, they PAY dvla
£10.00 for your details. then demand money with threats ... Dont contact them, dont speak to them and dont let them into your home.. its a battle of nerves so hold out.

As I've just edited my post and added
What should have happened is there should be a 30 minute limit on parking unless the vehicle is logged in onto the system, a little terminal in the reception that logs them onto the parking system for the day, just like every supermarket camera controlled car park has
yet again no thought into whats going on and the negative affects it has on fans

But it shouldn't be an issue. There is ample parking available. The signs tell you not to park there I'm Car Park one.
If the gates car park one were closed, what would you do then? Go home, or find somewhere else to park?

You were in the car park for 45 minutes. Ticket office 5 mins, club shop 5 minutes. What the hell else did you do?
Frosty is right, the signs really are quite obvious.

REALLY.... Last one was about 4.5 months ago, i did a different trick that time. They got my details from dvla after they paid £10 for it, then bombarded me with the usual threats, they need the driver not the car ownner. i told them it wasnt me driving that day but could of been any one of three people, they said fine, we need the drivers details, i said ok, i will post you those for £20.... guess what happened next. ?

Instead of the usual suspects turning this thread into their own personal playground, I wish more people would take a leaf out of Filo's book and help a follow supporter in his hour of need.
Whatever the rights and wrongs, the original poster is clearly a decent guy who has made a mistake and we should be supporting him rather than resorting to petty name calling.

Daggers have looked at the attachment? He was parked for 45 minutes so your 30 minute idea which you are basing your whole argument around holds no water.
Whilst we are at it, what sort of a clown doesn't cover over his name and address as well as number plate when putting the attachment on a public forum.
Case dismissed!
-
Thank god for that..I've actually been agreeing with some of Mr Frosts posts recently...Thankfully normal service has been resumed..
-
The signs are clear at the entrance and within. It's for permit holders only (my employer also uses the car park for our staff).
I nearly fell for it a few weeks ago but drove in and straight out having seen the signs.
Not sure whether the club might be able to do something as it's your first offence but it's worth a try.

The club will have the ability to instruct Parking Eye to cancel the charge as they are the land owner

I'm not basing my whole argument on 30 minutes.
30 minutes is just an example it can be set for any period of time.
Yet again its not thought out properly and with the amount of parking available there is no need at all

I'll admit I always used Car Park 1 for collecting tickets, so glad I saw this

Nothing to do with it being a personal playground or the character of the bloke in question. The signs are there for all to see.
Not sure what help there is to be given really, he broke a rule and he's crying about it cos he got stung.
-
When I go for match tickets I usually park in the invalid bit opposite the ticket office and get out and limp.
-
Are these restrictions fairly recent? I have always parked in CP1 when picking up tickets, not since last season cup matches though. However I have had a couple of general e mails from the club instructing anyone visiting the ground to use CP2
-
I wonder who have appointed Parking Eye to police the car park, the club? Or the organisation that the club has rented it out to?
Car park 1 is the nearest car park to the ticket office, so it's only natural for people to park there when collecting tickets.
Also if Car Park 1 is designated to companies that occupy the offices at the KM, who's are all those cars that are parked around the perimiter of the stadium? Surely they should be in Car Park 1 if the belong to office staff of other companies
-
I wonder how many Rovers fans' cars were ticketed on the day we played Arsenal when the car park was full of travelling fans vehicles for the entire day?
-
Can you not park there when you go to away matches on a sat.i may have missed somthing.does the ban just apply to mid week.if not where can you park now whilst on the coach.
-
As has been pointed out, the car park is the closest one to the ticket office,it's also the one that pretty much everybody has used since the Keepmoat opened.. There is plenty of other areas to park to access the club shop and ticket office so it's not a problem to me that the club is using it as a revenue stream,thats good business...
however it is not good business to cheese of your own fans turning up to buy products for what the place was built for in the first place...This thread proves that a lot of people were unaware that this was now in operation...but I bet nobody is unaware you can buy a dna card or get a membership...It's all about communication for me..The club should try and get this quashed and use all there media outlets to make sure people are fully aware of this for the future...

Car park 2
-
There are signs as you drive into the car park, along with signs all across the car park.
If people can't read, that is their problem.
-
As a point it's the council who is the land owner as DRFC lease it from them. The car park has been let to the office occupants from Monday to Friday on week ends and match evenings it reverts to use by fans. The signs have been up for at least 6 months and are placed as pointed out in other posts at the entrance and through out the car park. This is no different to parking in any private car park you do so at your own risk.
-
Thank you
-
wow 6 months,i was told a couple of weeks ago but didn't realise it was that long so I've got lucky a time or two..Just goes to show..i'm as guilty as anybody of having tunnel vision..Still this thread has probably achieved a lot in bringing it to peoples attention..No consolation for the original poster I appreciate though..
-
Sorry but I'm with most of the others it's not a new thing and the signs are certainly quite clear. I don't actually think we should be critical of the club looking for more revenue opportunities. Though equally it probably wouldn't do much harm to wipe the first one off as a gesture on the basis that 2nd strike equals fine.
If anyone wondered, it was announced;

When you have a Leasehold, you own the property for the fixed period of the lease, then the ownership reverts back to the Freeholder
-
fair enough then I guess, but £100 is absolutely scandalous....You could go and nick a car,drive it off with no mot and insurance and get less than that according to Police interceptors lol
-

And that was the standard get out until recently, the charge had to be proportionate to the loss incured by the land owner. Even if the charge was £100 for the day, a 45 minute overstay charged at £100 is not proportianate
-
At the end of the day mediation by the club would not go amiss,and in the case of this gentleman and his wife would create goodwill.Parking fines will always be thought of as a scam by most motorists and course ill feeling.
in this case the driver on the day has been guilty of not being aware of the new signs and rules that cover this car park and has not been observant,or because of using the area before has just repeated what they have done before.
If the Rovers have any pull on this situation,they should sort it out for the supporter,and make announcements,and put it on the big screen at the next game.
-
They certainly cannot charge you £100. As a matter of interest what penalty charge is specified on the notice for unauthorised. parking.

Being ignorant is not really a good enough excuse - especially when there are signs in several places telling you you can't park there...
-
So it's not been 6 months, it's been 3 weeks
The signs were up ebfore the start of the season.

-
Ignorant is a bit strong,the bloke has a point in that for over a decade this car park has been used by and large by our supporters visiting the club to spend their money on the clubs match tickets, and at the club shop.
It has also been used by away supporters who catch the supporters bus in mid week to away matches,and this is one problem people may have in future if the fines thing and midweek parking restrictions is not addressed so everyone knows to park in the other car parks.
I would have thought it quite easy for people who have always parked there for away matches to think it O.K. when it is now not,and therefore the club should make every effort to make sure they do,and I would expect them as a sign of goodwill, to make an effort to overturn any mistakes by supporters, who may be paying £50 in ticket and travel costs to watch them play, or as in this case buy tickets or purchase goods at the club shop.

It's disgusting mate. Don't pay it and there will be no Ccj against you. Why the fu:k when a fellow supporter puts any kind of post on here there will some nasty frosty people who will just pull them to bits for any reason.
-
I'll try again! Does anyone know how many parking tickets were issued to Rovers fan's who parked in the Keepmoat car park while at the Arsenal game?

May have been others it was a 30 second google. Signs are king not the website.
-
Look on this as a financial transaction,a scam parking firm could possibly cost our club at least the price of a season ticket in the future so that they get £100.
Not a very good deal is it.
In fact if we did this kind of deal in a pub most people would think we were right pillocks.
-
Ignorant is a bit strong
Is it? why? he didn't know the rule, therefore he was ignorant of them - and in another sense, he's also ignored the signs that state the punishment.It's disgusting mate. Don't pay it and there will be no Ccj against you. Why the fu:k when a fellow supporter puts any kind of post on here there will some nasty frosty people who will just pull them to bits for any reason.
It isn't "for any reason" though is it? he's just come on kicking off at the club basically saying they're scum of the earth for something they haven't directly done and that he could have easily avoided falling foul of if he'd looked at the fairly obvious signage.
-
It's not a scam parking firm though is it.
Why should drfc get involved?
The guy was in the wrong
He was parked for 45 minutes
There are loads of signs telling you not to park
He has not stated that he is blind and could not see them
He is guilty of an offence
He should stop moaning
In fact it's interesting that he has not posted today
Maybe it has finally sunk in
-
I'll try again! Does anyone know how many parking tickets were issued to Rovers fan's who parked in the Keepmoat car park while at the Arsenal game?
Seeing as fans on coaches, were told that they could only use car parks 2 and 3 i doubt any tickets were issued.

Just google parking eye theres plenty out there about them
so you drive into that car park to collect your tickets theres nothing to stop you thinking the same signs have been put up in all car parks, I don't know but are there big signs telling non permit holders to park in car parks 2 or 3 ????????? equally as big as the Parking Eye permit holder signs?
Some seem to be forgetting over 10 years people have parked in car park 1 its yet again its an own goal through lack of communication and not hammering it on the website twitter etc
As someone else said make all those office employees park in it and stop them parking on the inner circle!
As I said earlier there is a very simple solution exactly the same as used by this lot in supermarkets etc a terminal in the reception areas that these office workers log there car on you start to type your reg in and a pretty picture of your reg plate and vehicle come up it asks is this you you hit the yes button, you are now booked on this site for today/week it takes seconds
Then as we all know the car parks never full in the weekdays (although perhaps if they were all made to park there instead of on the inner ring .................. ) so you then have a limit for visitors whether it be 30/45/60 minutes or whatever
It boils down to the usual not enough communication or thought lets instigate the first brainwave we have

It's disgusting mate. Don't pay it and there will be no Ccj against you. Why the fu:k when a fellow supporter puts any kind of post on here there will some nasty frosty people who will just pull them to bits for any reason.
Things have changed with regards to these kinds of fines, as Filo has pointed out. You're much less likely to get away with it if you ignore it.

Pretty sure the quite large sign says in big letters something like use car park two.

If there is great

There are large signs, that should be enough to be honest. This change was made months ago, the club can't be expected to spoon-feed this stuff to every individual fan. My dad used to park in #1 when buying tickets, but the signage made it clear and he promptly switched to parking in the other car park. Ignorance is a poor excuse, as is directing ire at posters like Mr. Frost just for pointing out facts in this thread.
-
I dont think anybodies asking for it to be spoon fed individually what they are asking is this sort of change needs publicising frequently using all the tools at their disposal its no good putting it on dros/Twitter/fb once or twice so it drops off the feed within a couple of hours it needs reiterating however as ive said if a bit more thought had been put into it there are very simple solutions

You have a point to an extent but if you go anywhere in the country, whether you've been there before or not, some car parks are for private use only and are sign posted that way. The signage is all over the car park, there's literally about 10 signs in the car park and one or two small ones and a large one at the entrance if I remember correctly. Whether they put it on the website/social media or not, it's VERY obvious.
If you get caught doing 70 down Stadium Way are you going to slate the club because they didn't warn you what the speed limit was?
-
If they fine fans for parking in car park one they will only persist in pissing off and alienating their own just for supporting there team and getting tickets
-
The car park is nigh on empty anyway
-
No one is being alienated for support or buying tickets, just being asked to use car park 2 instead..

During the day it's quite full. There's a waiting list at our place to get a spotThe car park is nigh on empty anyway
It's pretty full during the day. There's a waiting list at our place to get a spot.
If all spots are paid for by businesses close by then it's good revenue for the club and should be welcomed. Maybe look at it another way, income from the car parking may be helping the club to keep ticket prices down!
Naturally, there will be spaces on any given day as people have time off.
-
I beg to differ it is not even half full on a week day I go down regular so I see for myself
-
Surely the best way to 'advertise' that you can't park in the car park is at the car park itself....
The club could constantly plaster it all over twitter/Facebook/website but let's face it, not everyone interacts with the club in that way.
If there was one small sign I could understand it, but it's clear as day with repeated signs throughout the car park.
Sometimes you just have to hold your hands up and admit you were in the wrong, get past the anger stage and accept it.
-
Are people just to lazy to walk from car park 2?

Are people just to lazy to walk from car park 2?
The funny thing is, you can drive round the inner ring and literally park at the ticket office/club shop door for free and no ticket if you're just popping in!
-
Are people just to lazy to walk from car park 2?
no some just cant walk that far, it is ok for those that can
-
i can still see fans driven away if they get a fine
-

It isn't any further
-
i can still see fans driven away if they get a fine
But they won't get a fine in the first place if they don't use car park 1...
I didn't know about the restrictions until today but will avoid that car park from now on..

You club whets will find out in time

Exactly! the club need to get these sort of major changes rammed down peoples throat not just a few times when it drops off the feed within an hour because other stuff has been uploaded, it needs repeating every day, people don't visit Dros everyday they don't always see twitter, and facebook does its own thing and shows you what it thinks you want to see! sorry but its another major change that in truth has backfired to an extent and alienated some people through lack of foresight of the implications of a major change, as I've said there was other simple solutions that Parking Eye could have used but that would cost them, that car park is not full during the week !!!!
Sorry but its the same type of issues time after time

It's pretty full during the day. There's a waiting list at our place to get a spot.
If all spots are paid for by businesses close by then it's good revenue for the club and should be welcomed. Maybe look at it another way, income from the car parking may be helping the club to keep ticket prices down!
Naturally, there will be spaces on any given day as people have time off.
Those on the waiting list, do they park for free around the Stadium road?
-
On arriving back at the Keepmoat following the Arsenal game, car park 3 was scattered with caravans, the presumable property of the travelling fraternity.
Has anyone got any information as to how many of them were fined for ignoring the signs and parking there?

It probably isn't pretty full its just that they can't be arsed to walk from the further reaches of the car park and park round the inner circle cos its closer causing a waiting list ;) ;)
ohh look two answers in one :)
-

How will the club piss people off when 1) it isn't even their doing and 2) it's people's own fault if they can't follow the instructions of a big f**koff sign?
-
Just the usual of people wanting to be spoon fed and have someone else take responsibility for their actions. Blame culture of today's society.
-
i dont think spankster has a right to not pay the fines as there is reasonable signage up. at the same time tho i understand how he might not have seen them if its habit to park in cp1 to pick up tickets. maybe the club can help him out on this occasion, then everyones happy and we can get back to moaning about the football
-
I really can't get my head around what the issue is here. The club have issued warnings and the signage is there in abundance.
If they plastered it all over social media every day the club would be slated for ramming it down people's throats. They get stick for the Weldricks posts when it's a commercial post to bring money/partnerships to the club so posting about a car park every day will get on people's nerves.
They've mentioned it enough. It's common sense. Habit doesn't come into it. Just because you've always done something, doesn't mean that can't change. Suck it up and get on with it.
You can tell Rovers have just had a great win when the biggest talking point is a car park.
-
Habit is another absolutely ridiculous defence. You don't continue to use your mobile at the wheel because you did before the law changed and just expect to get away with it do you?

Now't worse for customer relations than going to spend your hard earned cash at the ticket office only to be met with a big f**k off sign!

If you have to rely on a law to stop you using a mobile phone while driving then we do have serious problems regarding common sense.

What is obvious is that some people knew about it and some didn't
Which means the club did not get the message out adequately :blink:
They've got a big feck off screen in the ground, a two or three minute job to put a basic
"Do not Park in Car Park 1 during the week when visiting THe ticket office or shop"
and guess what you've got virtually all your target audience in one hit
A little bit of thought is all thats required

No I know... but it used to be legal, and now it isn't, yet some people still do it. I was just using it as an example.

5 pages on not reading signs.

The message hasn't gotten out properly because one bloke got a fine for not noticing all the signs and a couple of others said they didn't know either?
Funnily enough, all the correct steps have been taken in this process. The rule was changed, the signs went up, and it became public knowledge. Well before the OP fell foul of the fine. I'm sorry but we are all responsible for ourselves in this world to a certain degree and decrying the football club as the villain due to an oversight on the part of the complainant is not reasonable.
I mentioned this issue to my dad and he said he had noticed the signs and immediately stopped parking there when collecting tickets. This was some months ago now. He didn't find out due to incessant social media posts because he's never been on social media, he read it on the big sign at the car park and started going to the other car park instead from that point onwards. It's pretty simple.

Jesus Christ that's just being pedantic.
Even if they did arrange for that, they aren't the ones responsible for slapping down a fine. Plus, as we've established, there are SEVERAL places it tells you not to park there at risk of a fine. I'm sorry but you're trying to defend the indefensible here then blaming the club.
-
Feeling a bit guilty here folks,it was me who suggested they try and bring in some revenue by hiring some car park space during the week,as Bath cricket club did,a couple of years ago at a supporters meeting.
Feel better about extending the bar area outside though,that does not seem to have coursed as much trouble.

Yup but truthful
I'm not really trying to defend it just pointing out that yet again all methods of communicating a large change weren't used and as I've previously said there are other solutions that could have been used if a bit more thought had gone into it and they wouldn't of pi$$ed anybody off
Most marketing people would love something that would hit 99% of the target audience in one swoop like the screen does.
Would it have taken long? no a few minutes to input a sentence on a pc and upload it

I wouldn't feel guilty selby no doubt it does generate income but its another big policy change that yet again hasn't been communicated very effectively to the masses signs or no signs :)

Dagenham - you keep saying that they should put a message on the screen but when would they put it on the screen and how do you know it would reach everyone in the ground? I'm only outside when the game's on, and only look at the screen when I want to see a reply (if there's an advert on there I'd look away) so anything else on there wouldn't be seen by me and I'd imagine many more.
The signs and announcements on the website are more than enough, there's only so much you can do without spoon feeding each individual. The club aren't at fault here.

The signs and announcements on the website obviously weren't enough for some
The big screen is a massive marketing tool that will reach the bulk of the targeted audience, thats not spoon feeding individuals its hitting the majority of your intended audience,
It would have took 2 minutes to input a simple sentence and load it so it displays every so often in rotation with the various adverts
-
Dagenham, there are 15 signs in the car park and they are not small.
As someone else has said most people only look at the screen for a replay.
I think the fact that Spankster has not posted again on the thread suggests he knows that he is wrong.
Leave the thread to die now!
-
Nope it's all crap by the club. They should have a dedicated staff member, one for each fan, waiting in that car park to let the fan go to the ticket office whilst the club provides valet parking to avoid the charges. Afternoon tea maybe too. Ffs some ppl on here I ask you?
-
I'd be buying tickets every day, even for things I wasn't going to, if I was getting accompanied afternoon tea in the deal. You might be onto something there.

And how long does it take to read a f**king great sign in the place you're parking? who goes into a car park and sees signs and doesn't think to look and see if it tells you how long you're allowed to park there if at all and what you have to pay to park there?
-
tbh Redj I don't give a flying feck but yet again the club fails to use all the means available to them to get a message out to people and that is where the issue is, even if with a little bit more thought other solutions were easily available
So I presume if youve parked in the same place for over 10 years you don't go onto auto pilot of course you do, and that is why the club should have used all available media to make it known its not some little back street plot of land
anyway good night and feck off the lot of you
-
:zzz: :zzz: :zzz:

Which is Car Park 1?
-
So if a speed limit changes on a road from 40 to 30 one week would people ignore that too? Then blame everyone else for not putting information about it everywhere else.

And how far does that have to go before your argument reaches the depths of irrelevance? The club didn't purchase TV advertising time to announce the change so that they didn't use all available means? No skywriters announcing the change, so they haven't done enough?
The only relevant point is that the new arrangements were adequately signposted at the point of usage. Blaming the club for someone not seeing the signs at the point of usage because they haven't used means not at the point of usage to inform them is ridiculous.

Don't be stupid! nobodys asking them to take tv adverts out The point is to advertise the change initially and widely on all the free methods of communication available to them, not just once or twice on the website when it drops off the feed after an hour, not just sticking signs up at the point of usage, All available means, website, twitter, facebook, big screen, programme these don't cost the club anything take seconds to upload and would hit virtually all of the target audience,
-
So they should do it on the website initially, but then how often so it doesn't drop off the feed - and for how long should they keep posting it so it doesn't drop off the feed? How often do you think they do they should do the same for twitter, facebook, on the big screen and in the programme? And who can they get to do it for free for them, seeing as you've deliberately highlighted that it won't cost them anything?
As for hitting 'virtually all of the target audience', I wouldn't have seen it on any of those and I suspect I'm not the only one. It also makes the assumption that everybody knows which car park is which purely by their number.

How often do you think they do they should do the same for twitter, facebook, on the big screen and in the programme? And who can they get to do it for free for them, seeing as you've deliberately highlighted that it won't cost them anything?
As for hitting 'virtually all of the target audience', I wouldn't have seen it on any of those and I suspect I'm not the only one. It also makes the assumption that everybody knows which car park is which purely by their number.
So we don't have a in-house media department..................................careful with your answers to that one :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Maybe on a match day all Rovers employees should tell everyone and ask them to pass it on....wonder how long it would be for rumours to start circulating that we'd signed Park Ji Sung?

I'm getting the impression that some think that me not heeding a warning on any of the media outlets that I don't use would be my fault, yet me not reading a sign right in front of my face is the club's fault!

Is this officially now car park gate?

If it IS then can someone please put a huge sign on it so that whether shut or open it says something appropriate and we can close the matter for good
I hope I keep up my record of mostly being the last "poster"

I'm one of the few people who didn't post on this thread, and I'm quite proud of that.

Let's call the thread a day now. The next person to post is an idiot.

Yes, but let's not forget we won on Saturday, therefore there isn't much else to complain and whing about.

You missed the part where he kicked off about being punished for breaking rules that are clear to see and blamed everyone else.

I was that intrigued I drove by the other day to see how many signs there actually were.
There’s loads, how you couldn’t see them is beyond me.
