Uwdi Krugg Posted September 13, 2019 Report Share Posted September 13, 2019 Heads up for anyone going to Bodmin for the Vase game. There's a charge in the top car park which most spectators associate with being free. Best make sure you get a ticket from the cash guzzling machine. The club put the info out on their twitter account. Not sure of the reasons for the change? Isn't as though Bodmin is busy with shoppers or business dealings on a Saturday afternoon (or is there some big event on)? Always appreciated the humble free parking for football supporters. Strange (abrupt) change in policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Jones Posted September 13, 2019 Report Share Posted September 13, 2019 The top priory car park belongs to Bodmin Town Council I’m assuming. So It’s the council that decides the charges and not the football club. Is the actual football club land owned by the town council too? If so how much is their rent likely to be?

Bobjfh Posted September 13, 2019 Report Share Posted September 13, 2019 From the Bodmin Town Council 2019/20 annual budget: Priory Football Pitch & Clubhouse - £3,850.00 Thats a lot of money before they even kick a ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldy Posted September 13, 2019 Report Share Posted September 13, 2019 It has changed from last season as far as I know. Went there 10/08 and didn’t see the new signs assuming they were there. Next visit, definitely saw them and paid. It’s free from1500, so arrive late if you can’t afford £1.50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvon Posted September 13, 2019 Report Share Posted September 13, 2019 Why not pay for the car park and subsidise it by not having a cup of tea at half time, simples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uwdi Krugg Posted September 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2019 I'm fully aware Bodmin Football Club don't run the car park thank you, my post was to warn unsuspecting people attending the match that the free football parking had stopped and they could end up getting a ticket. As for the patronising remarks about arriving late if you can't afford £1.50, that is uncalled for. If that's representative of the attitude on here I won't bother next time.

Totally agree this game promises to be tasty. Falmouth have a supporters coach coming and lots coming by train. So make sure the bar is stocked up for after the game!

paul pearce Posted September 16, 2019 Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 You have spoken to the same bloke as I have Monsoon. It is only free after 4pm. His remark was pay 30 pence in bottom car park for a hr then it's free. Trouble with that is ud have to miss at least 5 min of first half for this to work. I take it players/management will be reimbursed for their cars on match days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shots Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 Compared to some other clubs of similar standing Bodmin rent is OK. Don’t forget those facilities can provide income. Yours in Sport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
