Last year we drove to Stansted (with overnight hotel stay en route) to get a flight into Perpignan but the journey to/from london was a bind.

So, this year we have booked flights from LB to Montpellier and are staying there for 2 nights before catching train to Perpignan ( about 90 mins journey).

We spend 3 nights in Perpignan before travelling back to Montpellier for 2 nights.

Apart from no driving, staying it means we can get to see Montpellier - which I understand is a nice city - and some nearby places such as Carcassonne & Narbonne.

Looking forward to a much better performance by the team next season - this year was awful, although did seem to be the catalyst for our great run to the GF.

I've bought a rather clapped out camper van to make the trip in. We're heading to Marakesh afterwards id anyone's interested in coming along.

Perfectly possible to do it there and back in about three days total via Eurostar and Sleeper trains ....

Anyone sorted anything out yet?

Just looking in to now...

Spoke to Andy Walsh, he's said because it's so close to Wembley they won't be running a trip.

First time going out this year and I'm a bit stuck already!!

We went to Carcassonne last year for a few days first, beautiful city,particularly the old walled part. Narbonne was pleasant enough. Only snag with Perpignan was we didnt find much nightlife really, just a big Indian curry house by the river and a not very inspiring Aussie bar. Leeds were dire in that game but we did enjoy the trip

Perpignan on a Sunday is also pretty dead as most of the shops and restaurants are shut. We flew in and out of Girona last time and that is similar to Perpignan but livelier. If there is a an evening do at the Catalans training ground on the Friday evening that is usually pretty good, with food and the Sky Friday match on the big screen - only a short taxi ride from the centre.
