Same as Central Park! In someone’s back pocket!
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Might be easier to get to? The last ground was awful for that.

Is it not partnership with Salford City? Salford City moving from the peninsula to AJ Bell, Salford Red Devils moving to the Peninsula.

Im almost certain thats the case and FCUM not involved
Your right Dan Salford City is the team going into partnership with Sale .Salford cannot afford the rent this has been brought up before .

Was at the AJ Bell last night for Sale. Hard to believe but since the new road has gone in its even worse for parking and getting to than it used to be!
Salford will be well rid of the place, one of the worst designed stadiums in the country. There were people who joined a food queue before kick off that missed the first 20 minutes of the game. Given the crowds Salford pull in the Salford City ground will probably do them nicely. Better location in the city nearer their fan base and better access links as well

People always complain about the access to the AJB, but you've have thought it would be OK, it's only a few hundred yards from the motorway, you can see it right there! But the couple of times I've been, I've gone on my bike, and it has been a breeze, And they let bikes park for free in the car park, which some don't. I can see that would be a bit more of a challenge in a car, though.

David Bradshaw - who if I remember was the club's commercial manager at that time

Never had to work again (and seriously who would want him) after what happened

Just under 6k space. It's a double edge sword really good enough for the current turn out and might help increase (better atmosphere.

What happens when/If Salford crow their crowd 6k doesn't allow for alot of growth.
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

They couldn’t grow and keep the crowd in the Watson years so 6 k will be plenty for a good while yet
