Anyone know Perpignan?

Trojan

I believe they are playing Agen at home at 19:00 on Sat 26th. I'll be flying into the local airport at 16:40, God and Ryanair willing.

Has anyone been to a game there - is the ground far from the airport? Any advice? Tickets hard to get/pay at the gate?

I think a french league game (in a green jersey ) would be a nice kick-off to a weekend break down in the south of France...

Cheers,
Al.

To be honest, I doubt it, at least until the tourist or grape-picking season starts, which isn't for a good few months yet. If he doesn't speak fluent French (or Catalan) his chances are even more reduced, but I suppose there's always a chance of some bar work, although I wouldn't count on it.
It's in a fantastic spot, close to the sea, the mountains and Spain. Best of luck to him.

Sorry for derugbifying the thread.

grape picking makes great money, bar work is like 3 euro an hour at best, your screwed over big time with bar work
