Anyone thought about getting to Leigh early to watch the Catalan game there ?

300 is a paltry amount of tickets - we are not Huddersfield!

I'm on the waiting list as well as had to bite the bullet and forget the train dream.

Really had to get my act together dispite my morning wavering.

No Catalan game for me

and that could be just as exciting for us Trin fans as the main event no doubt wil be.

Thanks to the guy from leigh for his public transport info but the return journey looked a non starter (does that bus finish at 5 to six going to manc?) i've seen a few comments from Leigh fans and they have done themselves proud so far. Hope to see them there to for the spectacle.



Looks like we're going in massive numbers

so loads of true fans!

TOGETHER WE ARE STRONGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hopefully not.

I was looking at train and took just short of 2 hours £25 return

The X34 bus possibly does stop running around 6pm. There are other bus services from Leigh to Manchester after that time. The 12 and 26 services. Atherton train station is only 3 miles from Leigh. Trains from Manchester to Atherton leave from Manchester Victoria. Takes around 25 minutes to reach Atherton. Then take the 582 bus to Leigh bus station. Enjoy your day.

Which is quicker mate. Train to Atherton and then 582 or X34?



Presume way to LSV is sign posted from Leigh Bus Station and is not too far away?

Yep, that's what we plan to do.

Train to Atherton from Manchester takes about half an hour and then a 15/20 min bus ride on the 582 to Leigh, so not much difference on time, the issue will be which station in Manchester you arrive at, if Piccadilly get the X34 as that leaves from Piccadilly bus station, if you arrive at Victoria then the train to Atherton could be the better option as that also leaves from Victoria.



The X34 does stop at 6 so the return leg option would be the 26 this takes about 1hr 15mins from Leigh to Manchester. or the 582 to Atherton etc if thats the way you came.



As for signs in the bus station for LSV I honestly have no idea

but leave Leigh bus station with the George and Dragon on your right and the Goose on your left, turn left past the Goose, go over the canal bridge, and take the second street on your right Etherstone street, follow this to its end, this will bring you out facing Leigh East and the start of the Sports Village, you'll see the stadium on your left. 10min walk from the bus station although you'll pass or see plenty of pubs so it can take quite a while longer than that.

Buses from manchester to leigh X 34 Piccadily to leigh. 12 hourly from piccadily bus station to leigh. I think the 26 and 25 goes from picc to leigh (not to sure) your best bet is getting the train to piccadily and finding your way to the ground by bus. Not very helpfull i know but leigh and buses isnt by strong point. Good luck saturday. If anyone deserves to make the play offs its wakefield.



One last note . Leigh bus station is about a 5-10 min walk to the stadium.



And we all know this saturday dilema is skys fault.

Basically search gmpte journey planner. That tells you all you need to know.

Leigh will welcome the Wildcats to the one of the best stadiums there is.



Enjoy your day in Lobbyland.



If you are in the South Stand, enjoy. 3 sides are seated. The North stand is the only terraced area.
