Gainsborough Trinity (Northern Premier so 3 divisions below us) charge £12.

Cleethorpes Town in the league below them charge £8.

You seem surprised that Salford City FC play in Salford and that it's nearly 3 miles from Victoria station?


Hardly in the heart of Salford though is it? I genuinley thought it'd be much closer to actual Salford, absolute nightmare to get there looking at it. No trams or anything!

Salford supporters may say the same when they play us in Cleethorpe.

You’re in luck. Greater Manchester has another option. A new invention called a bus. They’re a bit like trains and trams, but there’s only 1 carriage and they have rubber wheel and go on the road rather than rails. And some even have an upstairs!

????

From elsewhere.

From Victoria Station approach you can catch First Bus No: 97 or 98 along Bury New Road towards Bury. The journey time is around 18 minutes. More information can be found on the Transport For Greater Manchester website.

The nearest Metro Tram stop to the Peninsula Stadium is at Crumpsall, which is approximately one and three-quarter miles away to the east and would take about 35 minutes to walk.

FROM MANCHESTER PICCADILLY
Use the X43 Bus.

FROM MANCHESTER VICTORIA
Use either the 93, 97 or 98 Buses from Shudehill Interchange.

FROM SALFORD CENTRAL
A 5-10 minute walk to Trinity Church (Stop NE), then use the 93 Bus.

Went to Salford during pre-season and caught tram from Victoria to Crumpsall. It took about 20 minutes to walk so not too bad.

Anyone checked out the chances of getting the train back after the match.... as far as I can see it doesn't look doable?

Not a chance back to Grimsby. Last train leaves Man Picc at 21:18.
