How F@%king bad?????????????????

Just got in, Over an hour to get out!!!!!!!!!!

Nice ground good location, but how can you build something that close to the motorway and have ONE road out.

The queues have been bad enough in the previous home games. It was obvious that when we get a good turnout it would be a nightmare getting out of the ground.

Having to pay a fiver to the stadium company and sitting in traffic before and after the game is not a good experience. I would suggest to visiting fans to park at Eccles RLFC, about 10/15 mins away.

As for the one road out, companies like Peel Holdings (who own the stadium) seem to have no problem in developing land and getting the planning permission without spending sufficient money in the local infrastructure.

Seems we got lucky then, we were on our way by ten. The stadium does seem to have a few problems, nice ground but not sure why they had a system of having to get a ticket before going into the ground, only to have a person on the turnstyle scanning the tickets.
Will have to remember the Eccles advice next time we go.

If you want to spend a fiver to park, we parked at the Aerodrome about 7 minutes walk from the stadium. No problems getting out at all.

Now there's a word you don't hear often outside of a 1950s time warp.

We only waited 10/15 minutes but then we got there about 5.45 and parked in front of the West stand.
Nice new stadium just a shame the locals don't seem to think so.

Only took us about 15 minutes. I thought it was pretty well stewarded. I didn't realise how many were behind us after we got out.

Quite liked the ground, but it did seem to have that lack of character typical of new grounds, all of which appear to be virtually the same construction once you're inside.

What surprised me more was the lack of home support CS i'm sure i read somewhere they need a home average of 8k to break even yet only 6k+ last night and i say at least 2/2.5k were Leeds fans.

All the grey breeze-block inside is a bit depressing. Couldn't they ask some local graffiti artist to do a mural or something?

I haven't found the supporters car park at Headingley yet and I've been going 30 years!!! We've only had a handful of games and of course there will be teething troubles. As for a lack of local support, we have not got a winning team. If we start to win a few more then more will come. A new ground will not just bring them in.

You've won 3 and 1 of them was against a top 8 Hull team plus you went well for 50mins against ST's and if you need 8k just to break even i'd of thought the new ground ,best squad you've had for a while would attract more fans i'm not having a dig btw i just thought it would be a "new era" appraoch from all connected to the club rather than "we'll wait till we win X amount of games".

The car parking at the stadium does seem to be an issue.
I took the advice of the poster who recommended the Trafford Centre Park 'n Ride.
We got there early did some shopping & ate at Carluccio's (fixed price menu good value @ 2 courses for £9.95).
I then had a wee bit of bother finding correct car park for the shuttle bus.
Got there at about 6.50.
I became worried when the Reds fan we talked to there said he'd got the bus there at 7 at a previous game & missed the start of the match since it took over an hour to cover the 2 miles to the ground via the Barton Bridge on the M62 & the single lane road into the car park.
However, the bus reached the ground by 7.20, so no worries.
The fan had also said we should leave about 5 minutes before the end to get an early shuttle bus back to TC.
We didn't & just missed the 1st bus.
Again I was concerned at the numbers gathering for the next bus with no queuing system or stewards to control it.
But the bus came about 10.15, we nearly all got on using the japanese tube tactic of just shoving till we got through the door onto the bus.
We arrived back at TC just after 10.30, straight in the car & back onto the M62 over the Barton Bridge again.
Despite the extensive 50mph limit on the M62 I got back home by 11.25.
You could see that the ground car park was still very full even so late after the end of the game so we'd made the right choice.
But it did cost £1 each way so for 4 passengers it would be dearer than the stadium option, ideal for 1 or 2 in a catr though.
Next time we go I may well try the Aerodrome option provided that the parking area is hard standing & not grass.
I agree with all the other comments about the size of the crowd & the appearance of the stadium.
Finally, I do think that Salford would make more money if they allowed away fans to purchase seated tickets from the away fans home club.
