Hi guys, i am yet to visit your wonderful new stadium, and am coming on the 11th Nov for the international final.
Has your parking problems been addressed yet? If not, any tips on where i can park please?
Many thanks.

I don't think the access problems will be fully addressed until the new road is built (if ever). If, as you name suggests, you're coming from Warrington, and don't mind paying to park, you're probably best off parking at the aerodrome on the A57 and walking over the road.

Today's the last day to get 2 for 1 tickets for this game by quoting Sal241 at rugbyleaguetickets.co.uk - you can't argue with two tickets for £12. Looks like it's selling reasonably well, I could only find 2 tickets together in the East stand towards the Northern end, and the central few blocks of the West stand looked full too.

Thanks, Iain. I am travelling from Northwich, but i am a Warrington fan. I believe there are some places to park for free, about a 5-10 minute walk away though?
I got my tickets yesterday , using the 'MEN241' code that was advertised in the Manchester Evening News.

A 5-10 minute walk away would be Brookhouse. Although free, leave your car there at your own risk!

Anyone know if the shuttle buses will be running?

I can't speak for Brookhouse, but I know that by the end of the RL season, streets as far away as the Unicorn in Peel Green (15 mins walk) had "residents only" signage at the entrances.

I've only been once (for our semi) and parked on the amateur rugby club just under the motorway bridge. It was only 3 quid and about 10 mins walk. There were a couple of other car parks on the main road just before the stadium for a bout the same price.

That would be Eccles ARLFC then maybe you could ask one of your players what he knows about the place.

As Iain mentioned A57 is the best bet and park at the airport.

Thanks for all the feedback Guys.

C'mon spill the beans. What's that all about?

Bloody hell you don't know your players very well do you?
Try Wikipedia or google

Moz played for Eccles

Knew he was from Salford. Didn't know who he played for though. Thanks for enlightening me.

I wasn't trying to patronise you mate

you do KNOW what patronise means, don't you.

Yes and i wasn't asking for an internet spat either

Parking problems havent been addressed, and its carnage around the car park and on the A57 around the M60 roundabout with 5k on the ground when a fair percentage use the match buses or walk. The RFL are expecting a crowd near to capacity and I would imagine 95% of fans will be driving to the game from outside the local area. If your travelling from Warrington I would recommend the A57 Irlam/Cadishead bypass route. Just after the makro lights there is a lay by, if you get there early enough park in that area for free or just further up use the Airport car park or Eccles ARLFC. If you use the latter (supporting a local amateur club who last season opened their club house and bar) you can use the motorway route. Stay in the left hand lane coming off the motorway and you will avoid some of the match day congestion.

Games been promoted well. I know that rugby union playing schools in South Manchester have been offered free tickets.

Will Salford RLFC have to suffer the indignity of having thousands of RL fans, and potential new fans of the game turning up to the stadium only to see the club shop is 100% Sale Sharks stuff?

Whilst I agree with your sentiment it's not worth getting het up over to be honest.
I'd be more worried about the amount of familys that get turned away from that crazy stadium company based on the fact they dared to take their offspring in a pushchair to a "family sport".

The Club on their facebook page did say they have somthings planned not going into great detail but would be interested to know what lengths they are going to go to promote salford on the day everyone keep their eyes and ears peeled

Club shop for Sunday is 'to the right hand side of the main entrance of the west stand' according to facebook which I'm guessing will be in the fans bar area? Some decent stuff lined up for Sunday, none of which appears on Salfords website (why am I surprised?): Get your photo taken with the RL world cup from 3.30pm. Gaming stations set up outisde the stadium from 3pm giving people the chance to try out the new rugby league live 2 computer game before it goes on sale. Morley signing his new book in the club shop after the game. Not many tickets left according to this: therfl.co.uk/news/article/26581/ ... leased-for Should be a good day. Good to see international RL creating a bit of interest for a change.

If anyone wants a ticket in the West Stand (good seats too), cheaper than the face value price, drop me a PM. viewtopic.php?f=20&t=540078&tsmp=1352488981

Looking forward to this game,is there any world cup tickets on sale Sunday i wonder? Would`nt mind buying a few.

Does anybody know if the shuttle buses will be running from the trafford centre?

I enjoyed that last night, although it wasn't quite the "close to capacity" crowd that was being touted by all concerned.

Still, was good to see a decent crowd on the ground and to be on the "right" end of a rout for a change!
