I don't know about stops, but, the train leaves Central station at quarter to the hour and journey time is 1hr 09mins so a quarter to six will get in at just before seven.

It's the getting back that's the issue, as the last train is twenty past ten cutting it fine and even if you get a later train to Manchester the onward one at half eleven has gone

I am going!

Train will call at Birchwood, Oxford road, picc, poss stalybridge & Huddersfield

Looking forward to it. New ground and all that.
I am driving over, and i have 2 terrace tickets spare. £12 each, they are £15 face value. Post a reply or drop me a p.m and i can meet at the ground with anyone who is interested. Cheers guys.

Was looking forward to visiting a new ground but already got plans tomorrow night. Gutted it's not on the weekend.

I'll be driving over, have 3 spare seats for non smokers or pi55 heads, pm me before midday tomoz if interested, leaving cinny brow around 5.00 and coming back approx 45 mins after the end.

THE HOOF

We are going to risk the train, hope we can get a taxi from outside the ground back to the station or someone will drop us off lol

Mark your best pre booking a taxi , I'd use the following firm. Bywell cars 01924464646, get them to pick you up from shawcross industrial park, it's about 2 mins walk to the industrial park.( those of you driving there's not as much carparking space at the ground as normal due to a new housing estate being built right next to the ground.

I'm in the South Stand, where's everyone else?

Us too, you can walk through to the uncovered end from there as well.

Ah yes, I forgot it's a traditional RL ground. Is the South stand covered? I'm already in work and have forgot to bring a jacket

yes it's covered but behind sticks where the majority of Wigan fans went last year isn't covered

Here's hoping the weathers alright then!

id be more concerned about the wind, if that gets strong you'll certainly know about it.
