Salford get stadium go ahead

Salford have been given the green light to press ahead with plans to build a new 20,000-seater stadium just off the M62 motorway.

Salford City Council has approved the Reds' ambitious proposals for the ?32million stadium, along with a hotel, shopping and leisure facilities, on a 30-hectare brown-field site near junction 11 of the M62.

Salford have played at their present ground, The Willows, for the last 100 years.
