    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!

    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.
