All day long that tune has gone round my head!

Can only agree with all the comments on here, had a great weekend with the fans that made it out, here's to Catalan away again next season, we'll find a bar that's open next time!

I'll tell you what mate,not being patronising to you lot but the Eagles try was pure magic,probably as good as any of the Cats efforts I was sat in front of Menzie as he neatly offloaded to Vinny to sprint to the tryline - great stuff !

How did it go ? I can't remember.

Wires at home in the next round

Many thanks for that sanjunien, i'll be checking out that bar Although the map on the link is incorrect, it points you to Rue Carnot, whereas the bar is on the more central Place Carnot, which is linked to Rue Victor Hugo where there is an Irish pub (according to my good friend Mr Googlemaps)

I'd fancy you to beat anyone on your own patch.

I fetched a few programmes back - well, I stuck them in one of the kitbags, anyway - so contact the club if you want one.

For some reason, they're all in French, but they're a decent publication - glossy, A4, more pages of French than I care to read at one sitting.

thanks for the article mate - it saved me a lot of work

are you going to Carcasonne with the others ?

i'm hoping the Carcassonne game will be at about 15OO and the Toulouse game at 1900 which is their usual ko time then I can get in both games with the two places being about 45 minutes away - assuming both games are on the saturday that is...

I'm going.

ESO is going.

Hillsborough Lad is going so long as he doesn't let one of his co travellers get involved wth the actual planning of the trip.

You'll have met HL in Toulouse Sanjunien.
He's got short dark hair, shouts and bounces up and down

We're flying Bournemouth to Carcassonne, we've booked an apartment thing as we're there for three nights and there's four of us so it was more economical.

Looks like there could be a few more going out to Carcassonne than what went to Perpignan. Can't wait!

Yes hotel in Carcasonne

Yes, I do have to come, the amount of money me and my friends will spend on beer will save the French economy!!

ESO is this the same as what you grabbed for me?

It would save the whole of Europe...

No it's not didn't see anything like that, just the official RFL one but it was only a couple of pages, think Liam has it by the way.

in that case, send him over.....

Two programmes, this is enough to send me grey.

P.S - can you pick me one up from the Leigh and York games? I'll buy you a pint (in England)

Ok.

I have come to the conclusion that you lot are a bunch of raving alcoholics !!!


re - programmes : there was only a double sheet special for the Sheffield game on saturday available in the club shop - i'm going down for the Hudds game saturday (hopefully) so maybe I can grab a few copies if I find some and send them on / take them to Carcassonne etc ?

Thanks for that sanjunien but somebody grabbed me a couple of these at the game. Maybe see you in Chez Felix for un grande bier?

I am looking forward to Carcassonne for a cultural point of view as well as the game and social part of the away trip.

Toulouse is a nice city but a lot of us have done it 3 times and some 4 for an international game I think? I think we have just about seen everything that there is to see there.

Perpignan is a nice town too and great if you can get down to the coast too but not a mega amount of things to see and do.

The supporters in both Toulouse and Perpignan have been a good bunch and we have all had a great time but have behaved well during our breaks abroad. It's just another attraction of the great game that you meet new people and despite not necessarily speaking the same language we have a lot in common.

I remember the first trip to Toulouse and my wife was wearing a Penrith Panthers polo and was approached by a lady who was thrilled to see us as she was a big fan of Penrith and in broken English and French we had a great chat. We also bumped into her and her husband in the Sports Hall after the game and again exchanged views around the match. There are lots of English supporters who don't agree with the French teams being in the English leagues and I think myself that Toulouse XIII has more to offer to the French League rather than the Championship at the moment but I'm in favour of an Anglo French comp at a lower level than Superleague and all I ask is better organisation please from the RFL.

Yeah i've done Toulouse 4 times. Did Avignon for the International last year which was lovely and from pictures i've seen i'm looking forward to seeing Carcassonne too

yeah hopefully - can't say yet for sure that I will be going as I may have to do a report for the paper at the Toulouse game so it depends on when the KOs are ?

they do a fine meal iat Chez Felix as well at lunchtime but you have to get in early to get a place - the RL team shirt will help you get served more quickly...

sorry to be picky but it's 'une grande bière'


bottoms up !
