    Is it true that Oldham doesn't have a railway station in it anymore or in fact anywhere close? What's the best way of getting to the ground other than car at the moment?

    We stayed at the ramada on portland street about three mins walk from Manc Piccadilly and that cost us £160 for two twins for two nights so £20 a head per night!
