| We parked on the airfield car park. Delighted to find a really comfy bar there £10 for 4 pints and free food at 7pm ( loads of sausage butties!). The walk wan't to bad but crossing the dual carriageway is an accident waiting to happen. There is a definite need for lights and a crossing.
The stadium is in the middle of no where. The away stand was OK and bigger than you think but for me the away fans should be put in the seats opposite the main stand. It would look fuller and what a waste of seats.
Overall a favourable experience but the ground is nothing special.

| I totally agree its million times better that the Willows. Its a sign of the times that I can compare now it to all the new RL stadia this side of the pennines and thats why I am able to make such comments based on that. Salford fans should be delighted to have such a great facility but my comments about it being in the middle of no where and the unused stand opposite the main stand are justified.
I don't think my review was unfair and when there are more facilities built in that area my comments will be even more favourable.

| i was a little disappointed, when you turn the corner and see the main stand for the first i couldnt believe how good it looked and think it might be the best looking stand in the league, everything else is nice....but come no where near the same standard as the main stand. the lack of money was made well knowen and it really does look like the case.
its a very 'nice' groud, but if i was a salford fan i would have been gutted walking into Langtree park and seeing what i could have had

| We parked at Eccles RLFC , a brisk 15 minute walk to the ground, car was safe and proceeds to the amateur club.
Ground was better than it looked from barton bridge.
Person who served me at the bar couldnt speak a word of English !!

| After watching the shalacking they just dealt out to Wire, that place deserves to be full every week.
The Barton Globetrotters are playing some good looking rugby. They'll be hard pressed to keep it up next year if they lose both Patten and Smith next year.
