[butchy]

Does anybody know if its on this year?

 

[surrey jim]

i hope so, and lets make it a weekend this year

Will be good if it is because there's a new ferry route direct from Newhaven to Le Havre this summer. LD Lines I think it is.

how long will that take

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

how long will that take

7 days

how long will that take

1 hour longer than the current newhaven-dieppe route apparently, which takes anything between 3.5 and 4.5 hours on a good day. starts early may i think

6 hours or so to get to le havre.

ok is the place good? because me and some chaps were planning to do a triangle trip from dieppe, to le havre, to rouen and back. but we were warned off le havre by a french classmate.

is there much to do?

I went 2 years ago when the game was played on a saturday. There were about 1,500 albion there and had a class weekend just doing the bars and a few clubs.

Dont go just for the site-seeing though!

When Paul Camillin has been healed by Malcolm Stewart, it might be worth asking insider about the fixture.

Le Havre have pulled out of the arrangement because our training facilities are so poor.

By all means go to Le Havre and have a good piss up, just don't expect to see the Albion playing.

Looks like foot passengers not allowed on this. It takes 5 hours.

I also went in 2005, with a few people who post on here. It was a great weekend (apart from the result). There are quite a few decent pubs and one or two clubs.

is that true ? what have our training ground facilities got to do with it. I thought it was a England France bonding exercise more that training with each other

where did you hear this?
The 2005 trip to Le Havre was a good one and many of us hoped to go again.
