    Are you driving? And are you still dry?

    If I were heading up from the south like you I'd park in Alty and get a tram in. Have a few beers somewhere.

    Media City is good for beers but you'd be going past the ground to get there and then back again to go home. Easier on the the tram though.

    I'd walk from Salford Quays if I parked there probably mate but take your point about going past the ground.

    Presuming Alty is Altrincham? And yeah driving and still dry.

    Yeah, you could walk from there but it's a **** to park, unless you're very early.

    Alty is indeed Altrincham. Easy tram ride from there and just off the motorway for you.

    Indeed, easy for all United fans as they head north from Surrey and China.

    Just had a look and didn't realise it was that close, definitely a good shout that and it avoids driving into Manchester which was a **** for the City game and that was a Sunday.

    Do you still drive the M6 every week? ****ing 50mph limits...

    No worse than driving.

    Depends if you're in a rush or not.

    Personally, I walk to Media City, have a couple of beers then **** off 'home'.

    Probs doesn't apply to Libby though.

    Do I ****, I avoid as much as possible.

    Only been doing it recently as my old man is ill. Be doing it next week, then a couple of weeks after for Watford game.

    Not looking beyond that.

    Sale Waterpark then get tram to Trafford Bar. Always less crowded than Altrincham line and easier to get on tram on way back.

    Dead handy from M60 as well.

    I always park in official car park 2nd exit off off Europa Circle on Westinghouse Road near freight terminal - easy walk to ground and good to get away. Costs a tenner though.

    We all know you’ll concede early and lose comfortably.

    Aiming to get to Wembley for about half 9 - 10. Enough time to sink a few beers in preparation for what could be another ****-show if we play like we have in our last two games.

    Enjoy it mate. OT is a fabulous ground imo, when it’s rocking it’s hard to beat.

    You’ll lose like obviously, but still. <laugh>

    Looking forward to that one, should be a decent game. I fancy a score draw today.
