A few questions before saturday's game


BQF

Recommended Posts

I'm a new fan of Ebbsfleet following the takeover kerfuffle. To be fair, I only live 18 miles away, and I've only ever been to the Gills before in Kent (From the North-East, Sunderland season ticket holder), so you can probably describe me as a johnny-come-lately bandwagon jumping t88t.

 

That said, I fancy coming to the match on saturday. I've got a couple of questions:

 

1. Will I get parked?

2. Anyone think it'll be a sell-out?

3. What are the pies like?

 

Thanks in advance

Re Parking

 

If you are coming down the A2 leave at the Northfleet/Gravesend West junction (the 1st for Gravesend if coming from London, the 3rd coming from the coast) Follow the signs for Northfleet, passing Sainsbury’s Super Store at a large roundabout & descending the hill to another roundabout, where you will see a sign for The Fleet taking you left. Follow these signs for about ¾ mile. If you are early, follow the sign directing you right at a roundabout, crossing under the original railway line. Park with the other cars on this road. If you are not early, you will see cars parked up on the other side of the road before the final roundabout. Instead of turning right, double back at the roundabout & park where you can.

And remove your Sat Nav, or anything worth more than a couple of pounds from the car.

Of course you can....From the Eurostar site.....

By car
There is plenty of car parking at Ebbsfleet International, with 2,500 parking spaces within 5 minutes’ walk from check-in. The charges for using this facility are as follows:
- Up to one hour: £1.00
- Up to five hours: £4.50
- Daily rate: £11.50
- Weekly rate: £69.00

Wonder how many Ebbsfleet station users will be using the roads? Or if indeed, the council will be inclined to put yellow lines down to prevent this!

4.50 quid. on top of the costs of going to a Match! Scandalous!

I have to admit, I do chuckle when I think of some pampered MyFC Premiership-bound fans standing on that open terrace in the middle of winter ...


but my fellow shareholders will like it when I bring them into the kingsmeadow boardroom....
