It looks like the game with Le Havre will be either on the 8th July(Friday), or the 9th(Saturday). Liz Costa is trying to arrange a coach for anyone interested. 
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊

If that happens I'll be looking very seriously at going.
Just had a quick look at the Le Havre web site, www.hac-foot.com
Features a little profile on Mr Byrne, who looks like he was the guest of honour at a recent home game, and a campaign called: 'Un nouveau stade pour tous'. Sounds strangely familiar...

Is Liz going to moan if anyone stands up though?

Sounds cool, shame it coincides with Wimbledon, means we get to play in Europe and I love England VS France fixtures.

Le Havre is one of the biggest holes in Europe, it makes Middlesborough look scenic.

Dieppe is 77 miles from Le Havre, and last ferry was at 8.00pm last summer.

Best ive seen so far is £249, but they are not doing daytrip prices as yet - this is for a 5 day return

Bear in mind the Pompey ferry is slow - there is a fast catamaran to Caen or Cherbourg, both around 40 mins away

Foot passengers on Hoverspeed from Newhaven only cost about £10. Get the train then from Dieppe to Le Havre. (You may have to go via Rouen, but I am not sure - the SNCF website wasn't working properly earlier.) Trains in France cost sod all. I am guessing here, but I cannot imagine it being much more the £10-£15 to get the train. Total journey time? About 3 to 3 1/2 hours.
I have never been to Le Havre, but assuming it's a shithole, I understand Honfleur on the other side of the the Seine is very nice. I have friends who have a house there, but have yet to visit them there. And it's home to the Erik Satie museum...
Just one thing though, I understand that this is a tie up / love in with Le Havre, but what does each club get out of this? More specifically, what does the Albion get out of this?

WENT TO HONFLEUR FOR NEW YEAR.
VERT PRETTY, QUAINT, AND IT KNOWS IT IS,
OPPOSITE SIDESIDE OF THE SEINE TO LE HAVRE, VIA EUROPE'S SECOND LARGEST BRIDGE.
IF I WAS GOING I WOULD CONSIDER THIS OPTION.
ACTUALLY DISCOVERED A RESTAURANT THAT DID A PROPER SET MENU FOR VEGGIES. SACRE COUER
