Which stand will we be in? This will actually be the first time I've been to the Stoop and I'm assuming half the ground won't be open with not a huge crowd expected...?

3/4 of the ground won't be open. We are all in the East Stand with Salford fans in the two sections farthest to the left AA & AB(as looking from the pitch). These two sections hold 900 odd, so you should be OK for room

Thats not very encouraging shutting 75% of the ground, for the match, that surely cuts capacity to less than 5,000



Will we be able to amble to the other side of the stand depending on which way Salford are playing.

Plus is there space to lie down after our journey

Harlequins RL squad



Clubb, Dorn, Gafa, Gale, Golden, Haggerty, Heckenberg, Kaye, Mbu,

McCarthy-Scarsbrook, Melling, O'Callaghan, Purdham, Randall, Sharp,

Ward, Wells, Williamson, Bryan.





Salford City Reds squad



Wilshere, Henry, Littler, Walton, McGilvray, Smith, Ratchford,

Cashmere, Alker, Spencer, Adamson, Sidlow, Swain, Paul,

Sibbit, Leuluai, Nash, Fitzpatrick, Myler.

The official line is that we are all bunched together for games that "the club don't expect a big crowd for"

Movement to an unallocated seat is frowned upon by everyone except the stewards, who basically turn up and .........wel, that's it.



The East is allocated seating only and to avoid being beaten by old people with umbrellas, stay well clear of the mid sections. The Season ticket holders get quite indignant about "away" fans sitting in their area





Safe trip to all who come down!

Just one other travel issue for Saturday, it's Crickets 20/20 finals day at the Oval, now I know the oval is a fair distance from Twickenham and 3 of the Counties involved won't be on the same route as us but I'm sure the traffic will still be making it's was to the M25 at some point

Cheers for the information







Bit more details on team news [url=http://www.salfordadvertiser.co.uk/sport/rugby_league/salford_reds/s/1131396_craig_bannedhere[/url.



Myler is to remain out of the squad according to the Advertiser, which I'm fairly happy with. If we're sticking with Ratchford and Smith as a half back partnership next season then we're better off helping them build it in the few games before the end of the season so they have can get used to playing together.

It's at Edgbaston.

Ahh fook so it is

Still the motorways will be busy just not in our direction

Can anybody tell me what the various ways are to get to the Stoop? Tube, train etc



How long will this take?

Travelling from Central London?

Trains run from Waterloo every 10 minutes to Twickenham station (20 minute journey). Then it's a 10 minute walk. Out of station, turn right.

If you arrive very early, turn right out of the station and there are a few pubs 100yrds down the road including a witheryspoon for cheap ale!!!Safe trip
