Maybe try Just Park for a nearby driveway.
Looks like you should be able to find somewhere for about a tenner

I'll be there too. I'm over for the weekend, and watching the men's game on Saturday. Not often that you get the fixtures fall like that so I decided to take advantage and treat myself. Tbh, it's more the women's game that brings me over - the men, I could turn off at half-time! Nah, the 'match day experience' and all that. Yonks since I've been to the KP. In fact, it wasn't even the KP when I last went.

Indeed, I have an AWFC season ticket, cost me about £80 for 11 matches at the Emirates once I'd used some Amex points against the cost. I might try to get to a couple of away games, eg Villa Park and Anfield to see the grounds

Having been to the KP several times (though not an LCFC Supporter), there are quite a few residential streets within 15 minute walk of the stadium. Two of my mates have been season ticket holders there for decades and, to the best of my knowledge, never pay for parking - they always park in Brooksby Street LE2 7PF. A 17 minute walk to KP according to Google Maps

Have you seen anything of Eddie Beach, good, average, poor?

On paper, poor, having shipped 6 goals in the two league games he's started recently, but that doesn't tell the whole story.
He was chucked in at the deep end when a health check up forced our main man Stryjek out due to an underlying health condition. First game against Hearts he had very little chance with any of their goals due to our defensive ineptitude.
He was more culpable against Rangers, particularly with their third. Then he was dropped for an emergency loan, Oluwayemi from Celtic, who shipped three against Falkirk, and then another against Aberdeen.
Oluwayemi can't play against his parent club on Sunday so we've been scrabbling around for another emergency loan because other than Beach our option is one of our kids, who I don't think is even eligible because he's only 15...
It's a mess.
Beach looked solid enough in the League Cup games, albeit against considerably lower league opposition. So I guess a fair summary would be that the potential is there, he's just not at top flight level, and I hope that the incompetence which has led to this situation doesn't knacker the lad's confidence completely.

@Chislenko - Celtic put four past us today. The first was a comedy of deflected errors, but the second and third were both on Beach.
The second his positioning was decent enough, but the way he dived meant his angles were all wrong and he practically dived over the ball. Third was at his near post and he really should have had it covered. Neither shot was hit with particular venom and he didn't see them late so no excuse really.
Fourth was as stupid a penalty as I've seen anyone concede. The game was done but our defender decided that hauling their forward over was a good move. It wasn't even subtle.
That's us with the second worst goal different in the league now, level with Livi on -9 with only Dundee behind on -13. More worrying is the form in the last 5 games...
Lost 5
Scored 2
Conceded 14

One small thing made me guffaw during the Albania England match...as Kane scored, the camera panned over what looked like the Albanian fans...and at the same moment caught (i assume) an Albanian fan giving the 'bras d'honnoure' air punch, hand clapped in his elbow to the England fans...with true vigour
I can just imagine what was going through his head .it was almost comic book.

I'd not heard the phrase 'bras d'honnoure' before, though I was pretty sure I knew which gesture you were describing, and bloody hell, it's got a lot of names
