Even shorter journey for me! Just a tram ride away so I will be there along with several uni friends who are coming to experience some proper football.

Me & 5 or 6 other mates are going as usual, hoping to make an atmosphere in the away end :) This season we are in a different stand, the Manc Road end.

For a 1 hour journey I'd expect us to take atleast 250.

You are probably better getting the bus, which drop you off near Gigg Lane. From memory the metro station is about 15-20 minute walk from the ground. Not only that, the ground is situated in terraced house suburbia and it would be quite easy to get lost.

We'll be there from East Lancs. One of the shorter journeys for us, about 25 mins. Big stand we're in so it would be good if everyone could congregate in't same area to make a bit of a racket.

It is quite a distance from the metro station, we only just found it in daylight, i'd imagine it would be alot harder at night.

We also celebrated gay pride in Manchester last year when we was there.

Ahhhh.....but when you went last time had you spent the whole day in the student union bar downing snakebite? This will be more challenging! ;)

Good advice. But when you get there if you see a big sign with Trafford Centre on it then rotate and head about 12 miles NNE. Should do the trick :arrow: :arrow: :arrow: :arrow: :arrow: :arrow:
