Hello. I'm new to this forum, and have a question. Despite living in Poole for over 60 years, I've never been to a PTFC home game. In my teenage years I watched the Pirates speedway team. However, I now want to support the local football team.
Thing is, I have limited mobility now, so if I come to watch a game - where do I park which doesn't involve walking more than about 20 yards? Is that even possible?

Hi...I suggest you contact the club through Pippa Daniels. The normal parking area for fans is in the adjacent school car park but that is a lot further than 20yds away, however there is a restricted small parking area on grass just outside the ground. Maybe the club would give permission for you to park there, no harm in asking. Hope to see you at Tatnam soon.

Welcome, what's taken you so long!? It might be possible for you to park in the car parks of one of the industrial units on Stanley Green Rd as a number of them are shut on a Saturday afternoon, I know a number of people do use these to park for football. There is a turnstile at the North West corner of the ground you could then use across the road which is also the turnstile closest to the seated stand after you enter.

OK, thanks for the replies. I've got an e-scooter (totally illegal on the road) which helps me get about, so what I'll do is drive down to Stanley Green Road and have a scout about to see where I can park this Saturday. The next home game is Tuesday 7.45pm, so I'll have a look at Oakdale Junior School car park while I'm there, but I'll need to be seated for the game, as my left leg doesn't work and I can't stand for two hours during a footy match, so I need to get to the North-West turnstile as mentioned by Welsh Dolphin. Hope to join you on Tuesday 27th for the match against Plymouth. I'll be wearing my Dolphins shirt!!
