Definetely ran against Saints I got on at Oxford Road

Be surprised if they are not running on Saturday but you never know with the brains trust who organise public transport

See my edit

I'm pretty sure when we played stains it was only those 2 stations. I come over from Leeds & the Leeds/Manchester train goes to Piccadilly so maybe with no Yorkshire team playing they deem it unnecessary

Jeez, you lot really are fooked whne you leave that sleepy little hamlet of yours aren't you?



75,000 get to the ground week in week out to watch Utd games without too much hassle you just need to use a bit of common sense. If you're getting the tram from town either get on at Piccadilly Train station or Piccadilly Gardens. The Mosley Street stop has gone now but if you try getting on at St Peters Square or Deansgate you've got feck all chance of getting on. Alternatively, if you're boozing in the Printworks area get the East Didsbury tram from Shudehill. You'll need to get off at Trafford Bar but for the sake of an 15 minute walk it's worth it. Otherwise, there are 3/4 bars at Salford Quays (Chiquitos etc) which tend to be popular on match days but you'll need to catch the Eccles tram to get there. It's a 15-20 minute walk to the ground.

After the game I'd recommend going for a couple of pints down at the Lowry complex and wait for all the crowds to disperse. There's Lime Bar and The Beefeater which shouldn't be too busy.

"Special" train times:-
Trains leave Piccadilly at 1611, 1642, 1711 and 1742 with extra trains from Oxford Rd at 1635 and 1701.

Trains back are at 2019, 2050 and 2110 with Trains to Oxford Rd only at 1955 and 2035

Legend!

Shame you can't book them before the day

Myself and the missus will be turnout early and blagging it, I'm not really bothered if I have to walk on my hands all the way from Manchester City Centre to the ground to be honest!
I think a lot of people will just be blagging it on the day too, following the masses. that's what I've experienced in the past - so if you are a bit clueless, just look for the cherry & white shirts and follow them like me!
