For those of you thinking of going by train to this one...don't !

The nearest station it seems is Godley, and the only train back after the final whistle is 22:49...which gets back to CMK at 06:59 the next morning, with 3 changes (Manchester / Crewe / Birmingham). Which makes for a journey of 8 hours 10 minutes ! :lol:

So, own travel arrangements by car or official coach only for this one.

Are you sure?

The nearest railway station is Newton for Hyde, which is around half a mile away from the ground. It is served by regular trains from Manchester Piccadilly. It should take around ten minutes to walk. On exiting the station walk down the hill down the bottom of the road. Cross over Sheffield Road and go straight up Castle Street in front of you (please note that both Sheffield Road and Castle Streets are both back streets in an area of industrial unites). At the top of Castle Street turn left onto Commercial Brow which becomes Halton Street, after crossing the motorway bridge. At the end of Halton Street at the T-junction turn left onto Mottram Road. Then take the first right into Grange Road North. Then take the next right into Miles Street and the ground is down at the bottom of this street.

Newton for Hyde is marginally closer. When I took a look earlier on Google Maps I did a quick scan, bit having now measured it in Google Maps, yes Newton is closer. But maketh no difference....you still will not get back until 7am on the Saturday morning !
