i normally parked on iceland car park, its a 5 minutes walk from the ground with a few pubs along the ways
i wouldnt advise it tho as it can be confusing to find, i only park there to get a quick get away and avoid the traffic threw the back streets onto princess parkway
you will easily find a private car park, usually around £4/5 and secure

dont pay for parking,if you have sat nav aim to park somewhere off davyhulme rd,which is just off chester rd in stretford,10 min walk to the ground its free and you wont get stuck in any bad traffic after the match as long as you get back to the car sharpish,been parking there for donkeys years goin to the match and never had any problems whatsoever

the ticket will have the stand ie west stand, east stand ect, gate number to go inside ground, then a number for entrance to stands, then row and seat number all on your tickets..... sorry if that sounds a bit of an idiot guide
you could park on the white city retail park but will risk getting clamped unlikely tho, try where eddie said
