You can park on Lightbown Road for free where there is plentiful parking.
Please avoid parking on St Mary's Road, it disrupts our neighbours and ticketing is common where obstructions are created, thank you.
Stadium
With the exception of the row immediately behind the dugouts and those for away directors, there are few seating restrictions in place but we have kept the stickers in place in case they are needed again, so you can sit where there's an 'X' sticker on the seat.
Policing
Please note that for this fixture there will be police horses outside the ground. This is a training exercise. They will be present for all remaining pre-season fixtures.
