You don't know what you're missing mate. ; )

Good points. Security is something that would have to be considered. A cycle lock up bay, much like those I see at uni and at various train stations would be fantastic. Even better if there is 24 hour CCTV coverage of the area. I presume there was CCTV in operation at the new stadium?

A mass cycle through Salford?

Positive thinking.....

..... love it!

As anybody thought about parking around the Peel Green Rd area, or maybe the streets near to Eccles rugby league club, and then walking the short distance to the stadium.

The other thing that I think will need addressing is pedestrian crossing/access from inside the M60. Cars fly round the Peel Green Roundabout - if there are hundreds of people crossing it on foot, many who've had a few to drink, it's an accident waiting to happen.

It's a concern of mine i must admit....

Ah well it prove's again how logical the Salford bosses think out these wonderful idea's for us supporters. You can imagine the discussion by Montgomery Wilkinson scratching his head to Mr T, Hmmm how can i get more money out of these lot, with them still thinking i'm the messiah.

I know that we are in between Christmas and New Year but can you please translate in basic English just what you point is?

Can I request that the club employee a full time ball scratcher so when my balls get itchy during a game I don’t have to put my pint down?

go to irlam social club or tiger moth ,cadishead cars are putting on mini buses,for couple of quid return,you can have cheap pint and plenty of free parking

You had your bike nicked? Really? Why not mention it on about 10 other threads to make sure everyone knows?

I do hope that wasn't a bike that santa brought for you Mich me old mucka.
I have a couple of spares if you want to let me relieve you of some hard earned cash.
I personally prefer my motorised two wheel version complete with tracker that way you know where the theiving buggas have put it.
Don't suppose i'm getting an invite to the Mich red household new year bash am I ??? Well if not happy new year to you oh and happy bike hunting.

?? Was a valid point as the stadium would in effect be rellying in the council to provide security for things like bikes left at the Stadium, if things happening in the real world annoy you then feel free to join us in it.

I'd be very surprised if the club is making any money out of these services - in fact, I'd go as far as to suggest that these may be subsidised to the extent that they may be loss making.

It's not the stadiums responsibility to ensure your bike is safe its yours. Now if your gonna use a ty couple of quid bike lock it will be off in seconds. I wouldn't dream of leaving my bikes anywhere unless it was with a kyrptonite come lock. It'll cost you about 50 quid minimum, but that's the price yiu pay for security and peace of mind

Dude, you're such a wind-up merchant.

My best guess is that the Stadium Management company don't want money changing hands. I suppose it eliminates the risk of a Car Park attendant being tempted to pocket a few of those fivers for him/herself. If it is this reason it could be counter productive and cost the Stadium Management a small fortune in lost parking revenue.

I have just had a reply from the customerservices@ticketline and there are no car park season tickets for the stadium.

It's all on a match by match basis.

That doesn't make any sense at all. It must surely be in their best interests to have the £65 up front rather than having to pre-book 13 times over several months! That's' ludicrous it just makes things more difficult and inconvenient for the supporters (Customer)



Is this a wind up?

Your forgetting the 13x booking fee's they'll miss out on

When I got my tickets for the Leigh game from the Stadium I asked about Season Tickets for the Car Park and was told lots of people had asked and the issue would be discussed at the next meeting of the Stadium Management Group.

I can't imagine the corporates/sponsors being too chuffed about having to pre-book parking when they have spent a few grand on a hospitality package can you? If the hospitality includes parking then I'd imagine that season ticket holders would feel extremely discriminated against if plenty spaces are available and fans want a buy a season parking pass .

Surely it's in the Stadium Managements best financial interests that Salford attract as many supporters as possible to Barton. Blatent profiteering (13 x booking fees) and inconveniencing fans will only deter people from coming.

I think common sense will prevail when they put their thinking caps on.

I called down today, was surprised to say the least that the ticket office wasnt open



That big stand does look sexy, much nicer than the LSV, still a lot of work going on though, the reception ' leccy ' doors didnt like the windy weather either

not taking sides but reading all these many threads on car parking Just like to point out :-



It's in the outline planning that the Stadium have to manage the site to encourage arrival other than Car parking.

it's in the planning permission that they have to encourage off site park & Rides, and they have sorted park & rides from the Willows & the Trafford Centre at nominal costs

For Michigan Red !

it's in the Outline Masterplan we need to remind them of this !

They have additional leeway other than the existing 600 spaces for additional parking albeit hardcore or permiable paving sited near the retail site, I believe this will happen in time for the early part of the SL season


of the newer RL stadiums not many have an abudance of Car parking available. I think Leigh's ^ DW Stadium are the exception.

Hey, ney mind Michigan Red. It was me that suggested the inclusion of cycle stands.
