Quite pleased about the catalan game then, get to have my birthday in France
Why should it need essential maintenance when we moved out last season for 6 weeks so it could be relaid??? (its on tv tonight v Everton)
Its crap getting there tho' we've booked going Sun - Wed flying to Toulouse no direct flights to Perpy.
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Hence the coach option.
And they're not direct either, cheapest I've seen are £306 via Paris and changing airports so a flight that should be about 2 hours from Manchester is 5 3/4 hours going and 7 3/4 return

every july and early aug is where our hardest fixtures are always played. And it is in them months when we loose our form. Going off the last two seasons. If you also add the fact we could be playing the semi of the cup on the first week of aug then it is these two months that will again make or break or season.
The fixtures are a big improvement IMO. H/A/H/A cycle is far better. Hopefully Wiggy wecan get the points in the bag before those crunch games so there is less pressure upon us. Wakey. Happy we start even earlier lol The reasoning ah well. I guess working with Wheln is never going to be easy.
You need to follow the link and it gives CC fixtures as well as elimination playoff ties
