Background
History
Salford City moved to Moor Lane in 1978, but it had been a venue for other sports for many years before; Manchester Rugby Club played there from 1908 until 1969. In 2016, renovation work began, which saw its capacity rise from 1,600 to 5,108, including 2,246 seats. In 2017, the renovated stadium was reopened by Alex Ferguson, with Peninsula Business Services as sponsors. In 2019, the stadium hosted a semi-professional international fixture between England C and Wales C. The record attendance at the ground is 4,591 on 03 February 2024, a 3–1 win against Wrexham A.F.C. in a League Two fixture.
