| It's NOTHING to do with the club!
The Post Office give you your postal address - the post code is a Manchester one - the only thing they might do is leave it as Eccles, M30 7EY

It's nowt to do with them either. All the addresses in Salford outside of the centre have Manchester in their address. I grew up in Irlam which is Irlam, Manchester, M44....
I now live in Swinton which is Swinton, Manchester, M27.....
And so on. Even the Council uses Manchester in the address for Council Tax and used to when there were such things as council houses

| What's the bleedin fuss folks ?
Salford postcodes are long gone.
Even The Willows has had a Manchester postcode for many years.
As for it reading 'Eccles, Manchester' well so what. Why are people getting uptight about such a small detail. What did you all expect ?
Listen, if you want to go to the new stadium, then go. If you don't, then feel free to give it a swerve.
Weaste, Salford, Barton, Eccles or Manchester, it'll make absolutely no difference to what's on offer.
I just don't understand why folk really care about such trivial info.

| There is a slight problem that when you use that postcode in any of the search engines for bus routes and what have you it isn't recognised.
Just doing a bit of research and getting to and from games looks a piece of cake from Eccles and the Hope area as the 67 runs about every 15 mins both ways until 22:40 and then goes to every 30 mins.

| Did you know that Manchester Airport has a WA (Warrington) postcode? Geographically the Manchester postcode area (Square Miles) is one of the smallest in the North of England and if you took Salford out it would be about only two thirds the size it is now. The simple fact is despite Salford being a city it isn't geographically big enough (37.5 square miles) for the Royal Mail to warrant giving Salford it's own postcode area.
Interestingly the Manchester postcode population is 498,800 and Salford makes up 229,000 of that figure. (46%)

Innit.
Plenty of individuals and businesses put Salford as their address, regardless of which part of the city they're in. Surely the address for one of the biggest assets the city of Salford has should be Salford, not Manchester?
Of course, it's a trivial fact, the club can do no wrong, it's moaning for no reason, etc. etc.
Dripping tap.

| Fair points - you can write Salford rather than Manchester, as long as the post code is right it will get there. I do think there is a difference between postal addresses and talking about where something is though, it's the latter that is most important.
I do find more people from West Salford (Eccles, Irlam, Swinton, Clifton, Walkden) saying they live in Salford rather than Manchester and people are definitely becoming more proud of being associated with our city. I guess part of that is that it takes a long time to form an identity. I grew up being told that Salford Council had ruined Irlam by underfunding the summer fair and building the "new" estate (even then 20 yrs old!) for their overspill, yadda, yadda, yadda. I was one of the few who really associated with the city of Salford, mainly because I followed the rugby team. People tended to say they were from Manchester or Lancashire rather than Salford.
I think though with the improvements in recent years, the BBC, the stadium people are definitely more positive about the place. Even the magenta rebranding is part of that, giving Salford a distinctive image despite the controversy at the time.
Anyhow not sure what this has got to do with the original posting but just thought i'd share it with you
