The stadium has a total capacity of 76,000 and is located in the neighbourhood of Old Trafford, in the South West of the city of Manchester. Old Trafford stadium is made of 2 long-side stands (The Sir Alex Ferguson Stand and the Sir Bobby Charlton Stand) and of 2 short-side stands (West Stand and East stand). The stadium has an elevation of 4 tiers on the Sir Alex Ferguson Stand, 3 tiers on the short-side and North corners, and only 2 tiers for the Sir Bobby Charlton Stand.

Old Trafford lies southwest of central Manchester, a short trip away using the A56 or the A57 and Trafford Road. Fans arriving from the west or south are able to avoid Manchester City Centre on their way to the ground, if desired. A 0-0 draw, but it was pretty much end to end so it wasn't a bad one to watch. The stewards were friendly and the facilities were good. Plus, thanks to our bookable driveways, you’ll even skip the post-match traffic jam leaving the stadium. We have been getting some brilliant results at Old Trafford recently, like the win last season or the 1-1 draw the year before. With a recent upturn in fortunes on the pitch and the fact Charlie Austin was set to make his saints debut, there was reason to be optimistic.Old Traffordis an immense stadium, absolutely massive. The away end was a little cramped but I've been to far worse. Concourse was adequate but a little on the small side. Can't remember what they were selling pints for… don't generally drink in the stadiums but the stewards were good enough. No trouble. Fans who want to visit the Salford Quays area before the game might want to take the Metrolink towards Eccles instead, and get off at either Exchange Quay or Pomona. Although Pomona is closer to the stadium, the best bet when leaving the ground is to use the less busy Exchange Quay. From the Salford Quays area, the stadium is visible, and access is either via Trafford Road or over the foot bridge next to The Lowry Centre and Imperial War Museum. Another option is to park in Eccles, and get the Metrolink to either Pomona or Exchange Quays, which will take around 15 minutes. There is free secure parking available on Eccles New Road, and you are right on the doorstep of the “Drinking Capital” of Eccles Town Centre.

The closest railway station to Old Trafford on matchdays is aptly named ‘Manchester United Football Ground Station’. This is served by Manchester Piccadilly railway station, and the exit is immediately outside the away fan entrance. The replacement of the cladding at Grafton Court is scheduled to be completed in September, and we would like to thank our customers for their patience, understanding and cooperation as we move towards completion.” Read More Related Articles Got the train without hassle. Getting to the ground was a doddle albeit the tram from the city centre to the ground was quite busy. Not that you mind that after a few beers on the journey up! I’m sure getting there earlier would see lesser crowds on the tram. Directions to ground: take any eastbound service towards Manchester Piccadilly, before taking the Metrolink to the stadium using the above directions. We were going from Preston, so travelling towards Manchester was fine however once we started to come within 10 miles from the ground the match day traffic certainly did build up. So I would advise others to leave in fair time and give yourself a bit of a cushion.

Spurs had a dream start with Jan Vertonghen playing a one-two and dinking a goal inside five minutes. We continued to dominate with the brilliant Gareth Bale grabbing a second before half-time. I stayed in my seat during the half-time period. The second half was more nail-biting: for United, Rooney came on for Giggs and they looked a different side. They got chance after chance until Nani scored impressively from a Rooney cross to make it 2-1. However a minute later we countered and Jermain Defoe was at the other end; he crossed to Bale who forced a parry from Lindegaard, inviting Clint Dempsey to tap the ball in and send us into delirium. Kagawa then finished off a good move two minutes later making it 3-2. And, despite United’s total dominance from then until the final whistle, the scoreline stayed put. Spurs had finally beaten Manchester United away for the first time in nearly 23 years! Directions to ground: take the Metrolink westbound towards Old Trafford. Then, follow the instructions above. The ground is impressive and at its best the atmosphere is great. Most of the game was fairly subdued as Man Utd aren't having the best season. The noise when new signing Bruno Fernandes was announced was, however, deafening from the home support! The Wolves fans were in good voice too.
