To see the players arrive you will need to be there 5 hours before

As Weaste said, Its opposite the trafford bar metro tram stop, Im one of those "wonderful" (please not the inverted commas ) people that show up there every week, usually we sit on the wall on the outside

There was an awful picture of us somewhere, Im sure someone would drag it up for you if you ask nicely in the General Forum...

If not... when you come out the tram stop, turn right... in front of you is the Tollgate, if you follow the wall which surrounds it, theres a gap in it so you can walk into it off the street, we usually sit there (under the tree(s) )

If its raining however, we usually end up inside but its not often its done that * touch wood*

Anyways, hope this helps you a bit more - more than welcome to meet someone off the caf

Yours,

I thought it was decent seats when I was over last year for the Villa-match... As in most stadiums, it can of course be a bit difficult to see what exactly is going on at the other end...

- But I can't compare it to anywhere else on OT, as I've only been over once!

Damn right I am Im just kinda wrapped up in my own little world at the moment (which isn't really a change for any other time I suppose )

Just kinda busy with course work and what not, but Im online watching the forum, just not posting - almost like Big Brother, but in a smaller sense
