The veiw of it from Barton bridge is excellent. I can't wait to get over for our game with you next year.
How far is it from the Willows? Will the move of location be much of a problem for the fans or will the better transport links of a new development help make it easier for them?
It's about 2.8 miles from the Willows and most of the fans that I have been speaking to are already making different arrangements on how to travel there.
The club are carrying out a survey on the move and its transport implications at this moment.
From where I live its slightly further away but by car I can get there quicker and initially I know some people who will drive in and park at the ground with a season car park ticket but be looking towards using public transport once we have settled in.
From where I live the public transport is no different going the Barton as it is going to the Willows and either involves a bit of walking.
The new stadium has 600 car parking spaces and 20/30 coach spaces but initially there should more space available for parking as no retail units will be built when we open.
