I dont understand they the Dragons would want to move away, they have a solid fan base over there now and they sell the Wigan game out every year. Doesnt make sense.

Fairly sure they dont have the same health and saftey policies over there, if they did, we would never be allowed in to watch the game after 600 pints.

No, it's further from Perpignan, more like a trip to Hull.

I've made the point before though. They are a regional side as opposed to one based in Perpignan and have always played games on the road in places like Beziers, Narbonne and last year Barcelona.
But I think the reason may be more Montpellier wanting Catalans than vice versa. We Wigan fans will make the town (or is it a city?) a fortune by swelling the hotels and eating and drinking them dry. It wouldn't work if it was a smaller club who's fans didn't travel. Catalans will be rewarded with investment.
Same reason why the Premier League talk about playing games in foreign countries. It's all to bring in investment.

| Isn't it more about proving a point to the Languedoc-Rousillon government?
Catalans show that they can draw a large crowd and the local government extends the stadium and helps them out more.
That's what I was told anyroad.

That sounds about right. The ground is too small for big games.

| If this game does get moved now its disgusting.
I could not care less about the arguments being put forward the simple point is that they have left it too late.
Which of these arguments have only just sprung to mind?
The Dragons missed the boat, simple as that.
If they want to change it for next year thats no problem, so long as its done before the fixtures are released no one can complain.

| If your right...
That stadium only holds less than 13000 people anyway.
How would that demonstrate the NEED to expand your own stadium anymore than another sell out at your own stadium?
this continues to be a farce.
It'll take some spin to explain how whoever this character is seems to be better informed than Mick Hogan if he turns out to be right though

How does the change affect you if you are stopping in Barca? Have you booked a hotel in Perps for the day of the game?
Personally I think it would be farcical if they did switch it after so many have booked their flights and accom.
It would make the feedback our club asked for like a token gesture. Bit like when the government says "we'll listen". They listen they just don't take any notice of what you're saying.

| If the stumbling block is really the transfers from Perpignan to Montpelier they have missed the point entirely! people have made different arrangements around this date and venue according to thier own circumstances and sorted thier hard earned summer hols around it!
You can not mess people around like this if they do change it now it will have a knock on effect for years to come
