Some of the times on the website are saying 45 mins for some routes and some are saying 25 mins for other routes. MC12 has nothing at the moment. I don’t trust the info on there, it’s got lots of inaccuracies and needs fixing and for them to stop updating it piecemeal and only publish it once it’s all correct.45 minutes after the game is far too long!!
It's a nightmare getting out of SS3 after the game..it can be at least 10 minutes before I get to the exits..then trying to fight through all the fans heading towards Manchester.. definitely no chance of making it in less than 30 minutes to Connell College.45 minutes after the game is far too long!!
I don't use them as I drive in from the coast but I agree totally about getting out of SS3, I'm just over halfway up 315 in the middle of a row and it can take 10 mins just to get out of the view of the pitch.It's a nightmare getting out of SS3 after the game..it can be at least 10 minutes before I get to the exits..then trying to fight through all the fans heading towards Manchester.. definitely no chance of making it in less than 30 minutes to Connell College.
It would be okay if they were parked outside where 216 bus stop is lol..
That's why I catch tram back to Ashton...which isn't ideal but such is life
It takes me 10 minutes to exit the ground from CB level 3, walk to the bus going to Hale, and wait the 15 minutes or so before it sets off.It's a nightmare getting out of SS3 after the game..it can be at least 10 minutes before I get to the exits..then trying to fight through all the fans heading towards Manchester.. definitely no chance of making it in less than 30 minutes to Connell College.

After clapping off the players there is always a queue on stairs trying to get down from halfway down SS3..It takes me 10 minutes to exit the ground from CB level 3, walk to the bus going to Hale, and wait the 15 minutes or so before it sets off.
Connell College is a few hundred yards from the ground, perhaps a little further than the bus I catch, but it isn't going to take you 15 or more minutes to walk there.
The first time I planned on using the service last season, I thought along similar lines and was worried I wouldn't reach the bus in time.
It was a worry that disappeared the first time I caught the bus home, and it is, by some measure, my preferred transport home on a much more comfortable and reliable service than the tram.
Give it a go. You'll make the bus in time, and you'll never want to take the tram home again.
one of the reasons I fucked off back down to block 007 (107)After clapping off the players there is always a queue on stairs trying to get down from halfway down SS3..
If I'm lucky it's probably 15 mins after the final whistle before I get to the exits on ground floor and I have a problem with my knee so I'm not a quick walker and SS is furthest from Connell College added to congestion if away fans and our fans trying to get to town it would take me much longer than 20 minutes.
If bus left after 45 minutes from final whistle then I could make it but 20 minutes I have no chance mate.
It's a shame because going to the ground by match us is really good.
I would move but I really like the fans who sit near me.. great view too..mind you if my eyes get any worse I will need binoculars lolone of the reasons I fucked off back down to block 007 (107)
I used to wait until I was pretty much the very last person in the stand then start my way out.
yeah my eyes are fucked. Players looked like subbuteo figures. I was 4 rows from the back of SS3 on a value goldI would move but I really like the fans who sit near me.. great view too..mind you if my eyes get any worse I will need binoculars lol

Try from EL3 ! I stay and clap the lads off, but then it's a queue just to get to the concourse, a quick pee, down the spirals and because of the away fans have to walk down under the Nexen bridge on Sir Howard way to Alan Turing Way, then turn right and back on myself onto Ashton New Road and down to the Merc garage through the crowds to catch my bus. Can be a 30 min affair....all to stand on a packed bus !After clapping off the players there is always a queue on stairs trying to get down from halfway down SS3..

Apologies for the delay updating the website, its now fully updated, with pre-match times. The post match buses will depart 25 mins after final whistle.Some of the times on the website are saying 45 mins for some routes and some are saying 25 mins for other routes.
