Odsal - Always freezing, & no atmosphere.

Gilbert Brutus/Aimee Giral/Narbonne- Like all 3 grounds, friendly locals & great atmosphere. Only downside is the cost of the beer.

Racecourse - Easy to find, but need to sort out ticketing arrangements. Was better when you could stand up behind the sticks.

The Jungle - What an rl ground should be, good atmosphere & knowledgeable locals

Headingley - Nice ground, worse ground for parking though

Galpharm - How people can say theres no parking, when you have to walk through it to get to the ground is beyond me. Decent ground & stewards who actually seem to want to help.

KC - My favourite away trip, real rugby people & plenty of places outside the ground for a decent pint.
Beer & stewards in the ground let it down though.

New Craven Park - Certainly changed over the last season or two, & locals who now dont seem to want to kill anyone not supporting them.

The Stoop - Quality place to watch rugby, the friendliest supporters by a mile who have a laugh regardless of the score.

Halliwell Jones - Easy place to get to,cracking atmosphere & decent pubs around just getting let down by a few numpty's who have jumped on the bandwaggon.

DW - Terrible place to get to due to its location & stewards who wouldn't be out of place in the third reich.
But negotiate these & its all worthwhile.

Willows - Obviously having gone there to support salford for 40+ years has a special place in my heart but cant wait for the new ground.

Belle Vue - Hasn't changed since I went in the 60's with my dad! Good local pub's & I do have a lot of time for their supporter's.

Quote: Wellsy13 "Except for the huge fairground area next to it that can park thousands of cars, as well as the actual stadium car park itself.

Other than that, no. You can't park anywhere near the ground

Hey... I went there once.

We were told the best place to park was on the outskirts of the city (think it might have been on a tescos carpark... certainly a supermarket if it wasn't tescos)

There was a shuttle bus that ran backwards and forwards to the ground. If I remember correctly there was a bus station opposite the car park.

Heaps of others were doing the same thing.

I do remember seeing a carpark close to the ground but it was pretty full... and didnt look that big anyway.

Huddersfield.

Again... only went there once.

Followed signs to the carpark.

On arrival... big sign blocking the entrance saying permit holders only... or staff only.. or something. I wasn't driving and didnt really pay much attention. Fat carpark attendant was turning everyone around. We followed car in front... ended up parking down some side road near the ground... might have been some industrial estate thing.. it was pretty derelict looking.


There may well have been other carparks... I have no idea.

on that basis, if ever coming to salford, park anywhere off the M25 and walk, happy to meet you on arrival.

Salford.....


It's not going to happen.

I'm off to the USA tomorrow night... back in the UK midway through November.. then about 5 weeks until I go home to Oz for Christmas. Those 5 weeks in London will be spent packing, drinking, packing...and maybe a bit of work thrown in


Consider my touring around the UK done and done
