Looks like they are moving grounds to the AJ bell end of Mcr.

Won’t be doing them any favours, they’ll just end up with much the same issues as Salford RL in as far as playing in the arse end of nowhere that stinks like shit. Only with a much less dedicated fan base.

Can't make sense of that, seems weird to watch the move be a disaster for salford rugby league then do exactly the same thing. When I left prestwich couple of years ago was starting see salford city shirts about and they were going into schools etc as local club.. be middle of nowhere now getting caught in united traffic if matchdays collide. Be a terrible away day at new ground

I said a while ago that this was on the cards and based on the experiences/thoughts of Matt & GW, I'm quite happy they're moving.

Just the general traffic around that stretch of the M60 would be enough to keep me away.

My lads currently playing for their under 9s they’re at the moment trying  to get academy status but  have no permanent training  facilities. Every site they have been looking at in Salford is owned by peel Holdings and they’re quoting a million pound an acre. I hope the get the AJ bell from a selfish point of view

I've had some dealings with Peel Holdings. Truly one of the most obnoxious, self-absorbed bunch of shysters it's ever been my horror to deal with. 

The Neville sisters would match well with them.

My lad gets freebies so he has to show willing. He’s also been training with Rochdale Academy so it was his chance to see who he thinks are the best 😂. A 0-0 didn’t do to much to persuade him either way! 

I assume you wore your Wanderers shirt and was doing Wanderers chants the full 90
