It amuses me how they try to create tension on social media for the release of fixtures; I anticipated that WT would play a SL team in the first round, and every round thereafter, and that every other SL team would do the same - and lo and behold, I was right.

Really enjoy kicking the season off with an attendable away fixture. Should be a good following to Hull for a Friday night opener. Straight from work and then a free weekend to look forward to.
Memories of the Widnes away game for their return to the top flight.

[quote="Sandal Cat"]We were there a few years ago in February and we were sat outside in shirt sleeves but it can also be on the cool side.

Anyway 4 of us all booked.[/quote

We usually fly from Stanstead (Ryanair) but, they dont fly that often in Feb

Booked flights from Manchester to Carcassonne - Friday to Monday £31 return with Ryanair.

About an hour transfer to Perpignan from airport.

Is that a minibus transfer and who with and how much?
Our party have gone on the train previously.

The only flights I could find flying out Friday and returning Monday is Ryanair flying Manchester to Carcassonne. Return flights for under £35.00.

Went to Carcassone in February to watch Jordan, bloody freezing on match day.

Carcasonne airport is one of the hairiest landings you'll get
Perpignan can be very cold in Feb (well up to end of May) if the wind is still coming from the east then you better take an extra shirt
We've always hired a car when out there, €100 for 4 days hire just walk across road at Carcassonne airport and a straight drive to Perpignan
