I'm taking the Mrs and was looking at parking as near as possible using her blue badge, she had a stroke last year and she isn't great on her feet.

So we have to park at 1pm at the latest Two hours before the game if you manage to find a spot that is?
If they're all gone by 1pm it's back to town to park up and jump the bus. I'm not sure the taxis will get too close to the ground that's if you're able to get one. I've drank in town for years before going the game and getting a cab in Dale street has become nigh on impossible after 2pm, as town will now be the preferred option for thousands more good luck to anyone trying to get one.
