Read what he said, they were hold people in the tarmac car park up, last year it was only towards the mid to back end of the season they through together that temp car park, before that we were either lumbered on the Tarmac or the bit of gravel behind the Tarmac, it's ok when there's only 2000 fans leave but when you get 6000 like we did last year it's a ball ache!

We'll agree to disagree then and leave it at that.

I thought this post was about info on the new roads.
Not about getting out of the car parks, which, we all know about

I think the message we need to promote is that the situation is totally different from last season.
You can now pay on the day and the stewards are more organised and working to better instructions.
Nothing like last season at all.
Far better

I park at Asda and walk to the stadium. Its about 10 minutes which gives you time for a cigarette!

10 mins? Do you walk quickly! Lol

was thinking the same when i read it must of ran lol

New roads are needed.
I drove to the Wigan friendly game prior to last season and it took 55 mins to get off the car park. Been twice since for the league games and parked both times at Eccles RLFC. Far quicker to walk from there.
It used to take 55 mins from the Willows to home so I wasn't impressed with what went on.
I do think that when new roads are in place to make exiting easier the far more people will attend games than now.
Your good Dr can talk all he wants about raising the cap but he's got to raise the crowds as well.

The new road will make traffic flow better around the area, and egress will improve because it looks though there may be two road exits from the car park as opposed to one, but there will still be limited parking close to the stadium, and as the site develops, it will get more limited.

A metrolink extension into the site would be a massive boost, but is probably at least a decade away.

There's plenty places to park around Peel Green or Brookhouse and it's a 5-10 minute walk. The only people who should be parking on the stadium car park are people with walking disabilities or health problems, players, match officials, club directors or corporates who leave an hour or so after the game. If people want to be bone idle and then moan about being sat in slow moving traffic that's their own self inflicted problem.

One thing that is glaringly obvious about the location of the stadium is the lack of pubs and take-aways en route. However, I think the Reds have done a great job in marketing the 'fans bar' inside the stadium which works out great because the money is being put back into the club rather than Holts', JW Lees etc.

If someone opened a chippy on Liverpool road they'd make a small fortune... even if they only opened on match days!

Not sure I fall into any of those categories,other than possibly bone idleness,and call me old fashioned but surely the ability to drive to the ground,park up and walk in is the preferred option.
I could do that at the Willows so not to do it here would be a backward step.
Far more importantly,the Clubs aspiration is to attract many new fans and they won't want a long walk in p***g rain.

Get the team winning and challenging for silverware and a lot more will come regardless of parking proximity and traffic issues. I wonder how many would whinge about having to walk down Wembley way?

My Grandad once told me he used to walk a 12-mile round trip to watch Salford in the 1930’s.

None of that is relevant.
Your modern sports enthusiast wants 21 st century facilities.

And that were starting from a cardboard box in't middle of t'road!
