You are only ten minutes walk from the ground.
Leave train station via main exit road towards town centre.
Turn to your left at the first roundabout, past a school and towards
a row of terraced houses. Then turn left, under a railway bridge.
St Mels Park is in front of you.

Keep an eye out for the floodlight pylons, they are clearly visible.

Ya only 5 minutes away.
When you get off you'll go down hill.....kepp to the left and it's about a 5 minute walk from there.Very easy to find.
Anyways the hundreds of United fans all around the ground will be heard from miles away.So just listen out for the Galway boys!:D

Just when you get to the roundabout after leaving the station, take the SECOND arm off it. The first one will bring you out of town altogether.
