When opened the then Reebok was announced as a 25K stadium but they have seen 27K+ attendances. But, as Bongser keeps on pointing out, it is in Horwich not Bolton!

When I could afford to watch Leigh regularly and they didn't play Friday night, it takes 2 buses and 1 train there and the same on the journey back. 9 hours round trip with the game included. As I'm partially-sighted I thankfully get free transport in Greater Manc area. But I fully understand anyone's reluctance to rely on public transport.

I will definitely be at CC semi-final so long as it's not Headingley. Too difficult to get to on public transport.

My dad takes the 582 to matches from Atherton, and it's been so unreliable that he's missed two games as a result. I take my bicycle instead. The buses are so crap and unreliable that I wouldn't like to rely upon them.

What Salford should have done, was put on a coach service from the Willows to AJ Bell. That option has probably gone now.

It wasn't Marwans decision pal. Temporarily forget his name but the previous owner of Salford took a chance on the new stadium with Salfords Willows sold off for housing development & a 3 way (IIRC) deal or funding between commercial investors, Salford Reds & Salford City Council.

The problem still remains that it's on the furthest edge of Eccles on the way to Irlam & Cadishead & pretty much in no mans land !

Edit.

Previous owner didn't feel they had a choice under threat of the RFL & minimum stadium standards while Wakey & Cas just lied their way through it for what 15 years ?

Like Sept Sev says they should have put coaches on for the supporters. Unfortunately, most clubs would rather take from fans than give back. Those missing fans are lost forever now.
