Anyone think the club will be putting any official trip on as me and a few others wouldnt mind going to cheer on the dons and of course my cousin KYLE BRIGGS even though we are rhinos fans..

Any help appreciated

Believe the club may be looking into something-

Jet2 fly straight to Toulouse from Leeds--
-did the trip for the Cup a couple of seasons ago--a cracking weekend----- apart from the result that is..

Is the game to be played at the same stadium ? I think from a drink induced memory, it was called the Minimes or something like that. Doesnt tell you an awful lot on the Toulouse website.

Not 100% sure but believe the stadium is not the same this time around.

We did Stanstead - Carcasonne then caught the train last time round, this time we are driving down and making a long weekend of it, last time we were there it was open air bar and barbecue inside the ground, great atmoshere and great day had by all aprt form the result.

Etap hotel is where we stayed last time and have booked with them this time, reasonable price and only five - ten mins walk from the train station and about 20-30 mins from the ground by foot.

Their home ground is the stade des minimes but ive read somewhere that they are playing a few games somewhere else as french tv are showing some of them live on orangetv.

Ill have a look again and come back on later.

Yes, we did Stansted to Carcassonne and then train to Toulouse. Unfortunately our big mistake was booking the hotel in Carcassonne and there was no late train back from Toulouse to Carcassonne or else we would have also gone to the football, as Toulouse were playing St Etienne with an 8pm kick-off. Damn it !!
