[size=150EASTER SUNDAY 12TH APRIL 2009
VENUE: ILLE SUR TET - STADE JEAN GALIA[/size

[size=150Coaches will be leaving the CASTILLET PERPIGNAN AT 1045AM and will cost €10 per person return.[/size =redWe have spaces for around 80-90 people so please us know in advance if you require seats !!!! (note coach price changed from last topic it was €5 each way not return)

For all those who are staying in Canet, there is a public bus that leaves Canet at 9am Sunday morning and costs €1 per person.

Coaches back will be at 530PM

Ille sur Tet is the home of Jean Galia, and a little statue is erected there for him just inside the stadium there although it's not the best commemorative artifact in France, its a nice little aside to the game being in the stadium there.

He is the father of French Rugby League, the union man who switched codes starting it all of in France.



Food/BBQ will be available at the game and also you will be able to get yourself a beer for €2 during the afternoon. Soft drinks etc will be available.

After the game, the local Catalan Supporters club will be putting on a mini celebration in only the way the French can!! Music, drinks, food, wine etc.

Easter Sunday in Perpignan is generally a quiet day with many bars/shops/restaurants closing. So what a great time to get out of town to watch some ARL and enjoy a few drinks.

A FUN DAY OF RUGBY LEAGUE IS PLANNED.

We of course welcome all supporters and hope you come along for a great afternoon!

Many Thanks

Can i have two places please

If there's any left!

No problem, what name shall i book you under



Cheers

I'd like to book 4 of us on, just not sure if we'll be there in time though. Flight only lands at 9.45. Is the ground far from the town centre? Could jump a taxi if its not too far, then get the coach back.

The coach actually leaves at 11am, 1045 is the meeting time. If your flight is on time then you may just make it. Otherwise a taxi will be your best option and we can book you on the way back, will just be €5 per person.

The coach can always hang on 10 minutes if we know you are on your way. Maybe you can text/phone when you know if your going to be on time.

Hope that helps. Will book you 4 seats no problem.

Craig only four of us going now.

Cheers, amended

For all players, we shall we wearing this kit when playing next Sunday:



And yes, they are very tight fitting

socks provided or will we need some black socks?

have the club provided that kit or do you happen to have 17 spare 07 kits?

A catalan kit???

We have a full kit, but the shorts are white.

We purchased the kit from JJB earlier this year.

Is Higham Playing? Good to see he's found his level!

If selected of course!

He's been dropped so I can play.

I hope those jerseys s-t-r-e-t-c-h.

I'll be wearing the moob tube version.
