We always catch a bus from Portland Street or Piccadilly to Old Trafford.There are three or more services go past Old Trafford.It's incredible how empty the buses are.

After the match we always walk to the Crescent and New Oxford pubs in Salford.

Both ways it is better than being crushed on the tram.

Thanks for that, I had been looking at the bus as an alternative, am more likely to take it now.

IIRC, there are millions of buses lined up after the match to take you to Central Manchester to help you celebrate Wigan's great victory

Careful, they might be leaving ten minutes early!

I had to pick a friend up in Barnsley. Left Barnsley about 3-15 travelled over Woodhead and parked at Brooklands Metrolink accompanied by part of the usual large Hull contingent, we were at Old Trafford Cricket ground by 4-30.
Coming back, we took the wrong road from the station and couldn't find the car Found it at 9-00, back in Barnsley at 10-00 and home at Morley 10-30 I thought that was pretty good. There's a lot to be said for travelling on the Metorlink the opposite way to most supporters
