Does anyone know yet where the official supporters coach(es) will be leaving from for away games next season...will it just be from the new ground or will they be picking up from nearer the willows (or both)?

Don't really fancy having to get from Salford to Barton at about 5pm on a Friday as the traffic is usually at its peak at that time and bumper to bumper...I'm sure a lot of the fans that use the supporters coach don't want to have to drive over to Barton as well as the whole point of going on the coach is that you don't have to drive, i wonder if the club will let the fans have any say in this?

I'd presume it will be from Barton. Not that it really makes a difference as we only take an ABC minibus anyway. Most travel by car or train.

would be difficult having mulitple pick ups in various areas how do you know who will be picked up where?

It would be easy bobby. Thy could have 2 pick up points with a pick up time one in eccles and one at the precinct. When booking you say where to be picked up. The club person on the coach has a print out of this. If your not there on time to be picked up the coach goes without you. It's that simple!

You get organised and have a list.

IMO it makes sense to have at least two pick ups.

good point !
more importantly , will they charge us £ 6.00 to leave our cars at Barton when travelling on away coaches?
surely a better plan to multi pick up , like Willows- Trafford Centre - Barton, think 2nd game is to be Saints away , 3rd game Widnes away so we'll find out soon enough .

Its not hard when we go to united on our mates coach they pick up in 2/3 different locations (Mcr City Centre, Old Trafford and Stretford) Salford could do Barton/Eccles, The Willows and maybe The Windmill or somewhere close by as its near to the start of the motorway over to Yorkshite.

If a certain non-league club's away match coach, run by a volunteer, can organise picking up at 3 or 4 different places en route to games then I'm sure a professional Superleague club with paid staff can manage it.

Yes 3 pick up points and then a break down 50 miles from the target ground

I can see where you going with this but remember most of our away games will be on a Friday so having to drive through rush hour traffic with multiple pick up's will be a nightmare what time would the coach leave barton 4pm? Last pick up somewhere 5.00? Needs addressing ASAP
