Hi guys, Harriers fan in peace. Looking forward to our game on Saturday. As mentioned above we have cut down the number of seats given to away fans to around 300 but im sure this will be more than enough with the large terrace available too. As mentioned above its £10 to get in whether you wish to stand or sit. Those who are after a quick pint should be able to use the Harriers Arms or the Harriers social club which are both right next to the ground. Pubs in town like the Swan and Seven Stars will take around 10-15 minutes to walk. There is also a decent chippy on station hill called Captain Cods which is only 5 minutes away, although our food which includes the famous Soup, Pies and chicken curry is some of the best in the country according to most away fans. Personally I'm delighted Burr has decided to turn down Forest Green's money and im sure the players will want to put last weekends defeat behind them. After our struggle past Bradford PA I expect another close game and a decent crowd of around 2,000. Thanks Pricey - it's good to renew old acquaintances! Looking forward to a cracking game (with a repeat of the first round in 95 ) - with 2 in form teams like ours, it promises to be a cracker

What's parking like at the ground? From their website... "Car Parking is available at either end of the stadium, at the South Stand Car Park (£5.00 per car, £10.00 per mini bus and £15 per coach), and Stadium Close Car Park (Free on a match day). No other parking around the area of the stadium is permitted. Read more at www.harriers.co.uk/tickets/visiting_aggborough/#rYpbyA1qX5HK8W6v.99"

looking at the kiddy forum looks like most of them have written us off! Lets hope that we can capitalise on this! First game of the season for me as i live to far away to get down to sutton every weekend so hopefully it will be a good game and the right result obviously!

As mentioned above OS you get 300 seats but also a large terrace behind the goal which holds around 1,500. The car park behind the away end is £5 however the larger car park behind the opposite stand is free, spaces do tend to fill up by 2-30 though so don't be late. Hope this helps and if you need any more info then let me know.

No. The car park behind the South Stand is where all the players, officials, some directors and other celebs park.
The £5 gives you the chance to park your car next to Anthony Malbons Ferarri and Steve Burrs Porsche Cayenne.
