Why do so many people stay in Calella?

Because its alot better and friendley than perpi, nice town,nice beach and nice beer/pubs

and a bit cheaper perhaps

Cheap flight transfers to Gerona, not far from Calella.
Short drive by car to the ground.
Close enough for a trip to Barca.
Great Beach.

I meant in Calella rather than some of the other Costa Brava towns. Anyroad, safe flights for all and enjoy your time in Catalonia

Don't forget all of you that are staying in Perpignan that the Dragons supporters clubs are arranging a pre match grillade in Les Allees Maillols, which is in the centre of Perpignan opposite the Castillet cinema. We have ordered 12000 snails so come along and try some.

For the less adventurous we also have sausages, black pudding and chops. Fruit and cheese is also provided as is red and rose wine. All is included in the price of 15€. Starts at midday.

It would be useful to know how many of you are interested.

Wouldn't be a french meal without chucking some fruit and cheese in there. Still remember our after match food after we played there - piece of gammon, a tangerine and some cheese. Think that was also the same trip the chef decided put a fried egg on my pizza. Weird

Got my ticket today for catalan and just incase fans dont know the kick off stated on the ticket is wrong as it says 1730 local time when its 2030.

9 days to go

Flying from Leeds on 30th with Ryanair to Carcassonne. Staying at the Victoria Hotel for 2 nights before the next 3 on the beach at Keycamp in Argeles Sur Mer (a Sun newspaper Holiday). Flying back on Monday 5th from Girona to Leeds, booked the frog bus from Perpignan to Girona.

Cant decide whether to hire a car or try the public transport, i've heard that the trains are very good for getting from Carcassonne to Perpignan, not so sure about getting from Perpignan to Argeles Sur Mer. Has anyone any experience of the bus service or taxi's.

There's a train service from Perpignan to Argeles Sur Mer.

Are Taxi's expensive, as i need to get to the 06:30am Perpignan to Girona frog bus from Argeles Sur Mer. I have been told its about 10 - 12 miles.

Are we playing them at the same ground Catalans played Wakefield this weekend as it just basically a building site.

They played Wakefield at their own ground, Gilbert Brutus, but we'll be playing them at Aime Giral. It's the home of the USAP rugby union club and where they played their first ever Super League game... against us.

Get the sun cream ready as the long range forcast for callella is 31/32oC for 1/2 july GET IN

It has a different look now though, great little stadium. It's a shame they couldn't have shared it really but I guess when they have their own ground just as good it will be worth it.

What was you expecting it to be like in July? Snowy?

Only managed an hour on the beach today and had to come back home


Bring [iplenty[/i of suncream.

Is anyone doing both Quins and Catalans in one round trip? I know big mike is....

What [iis[/i a shame is that the local council weren't a little bit more accommodating. Think of your average Latics bandwagoner running Wigan council

I am...with Big Mike

Explain...

Do the two clubs work together? Do they have a good relationship? Surely they could help each other...

Yes went with them to play off game, one of the few organised trips because it was such short notice, no problems at all.
Is everyone trying this BBQ on match day, reckon Saturday night in Calella is going to be good, any particular bars ?
Gerry are we having a South Stand raffle for a jar of Uncle Joe's and quiz for crate of beer ?
