Game switched to Albi apparently - no immediate reason given. (it's not even on their website yet!) Still, according to Toulouse, Albi is only 75 km away, and the train service is good!
Just how many quality stadia are there in Toulouse to select from? I seem to remember us having a game switched to another stadium in the city, a few years back?
A bit like the other overseas' team in the Championship, it looks like they can do what they like - having already opted out of the Challenge Cup, to focus on the Championship!

And it’s got a running track around the pitch.
Great.

| I know of quite a few Leythers who have already booked hotels in Toulouse and thus lining the coffers of the Toulouse club considerably by travelling in huge numbers. They are currently far from happy at this state of affiars.
I trust the French club will do the right thing for these fans and lay on complimentary transport to the many Leythers now stranded 50 miles from the match venue, as a gesture of goodwill?

Their average attendance for 2017 was around 2k. Switching venue to Albi will attract 5k/6k of locals.

Thanks Atomic! I'm with you now.
Although, from what you say, maybe Albi would be a better proposition for the second French team in SL?

No, Maurice doesn't do buses - he'll be going in his private jet, from Westleigh International. Is there an airfield at Albi?

| Not possible to get info on trains planned for the date but if same as this Saturday one train to Toulouse just after game and another 2.5 hrs later. That’s it probably about 3 carriages for home and away. Hotels in Albi more expensive than Toulouse. Maybe Premier Sports could televise the game?

Bet they'll be televising Toulouse's game at Toronto! Oh, hang on, that's at Newcastle, isn't it? And SKY will be covering that, won't they?

Lesson learned on that one, had to go through the courts to get my money back from that shower near Blackburn - more of a " fekk em I'm alreet"type these days. Thought I would be on an episode of that get the bailiffs in show at one point but I would advise anyone owed money that the process through ccj online is very easy to do
