Or is it just a case of getting the normal adult tickets and just going in through disabled turnstile? Any info will be appreciated.
You will need to have a wheelchair and carers seat, which are usually the front row as the disabled platforms are usually pass holders and are full. If you are seated in the front row you can access the ground via the big entrance tunnels (you won't need the lift unless on a disabled viewing platform). If you need a parking pass then give Sue Smith a call, the disabled car parking is full but Sue is very accommodating and will try to find you somewhere, and as pointed out in the info from ccs if your friend is in receipt of the carers allowance part of DLA you can have a carers pass free of charge, but you will need to go to the ticket office and produce evidence for this.
I'm on the front row of East Stand for the derby as I'm in a Wheelchair right now. PM me if you need any other info.

Thanks a lot this is really great info, you've answered all my questions, enjoy the game!
Tucked away in the story about Talanoa's new deal is news that 15k tickets have been sold, so 20k isn't unreasonable with a week to go, but of course a win for either or both sides on Friday would help sales along!

Unbeaten at home since 2007. However, that was when we had a front row. I'm certainly not playing the injury card, as other squads are much more depleted than ours, but all our problems are in the same position. Not all injured either, 1 retired, 1 suspended, 1 injured & 1 AWOL.

Saints are -8 at the bookies, lump on.
It's my full and sincere belief that you will win. "Best halves in the league", first choice three quarters all available, Lunt the inspirational hooker and home advantage which has been telling for seven seasons in a row. Saints have arguably flattered to deceive so far.

Cronk & Thurston would look like the Chuckle Brothers behind a pack as badly beaten as ours will be tomorrow night. Watch it back on Sky when you get in from Cas, it will cheer you up.

You nearly convinced me that you were been sincere there for a minute
