BigTone Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 Afternoon all Bordeaux is the nearest half decent team to where I live in France and I fancy taking in a few games. Are there any other fellow Reds who live near by who fancy meeting up for a game one day ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The council realised that the vast majority of Bristolians SOTR actually had a life-long affinity with a little known town in the Hollandlands. So for those of the red persuasion, we're twinned with them, Fergie's mate and the former Shakhtar Donetsk player. It's a foregone one that the new West Stand will only be slightly renamed to reflect this strong bond that each and every City fan feels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NiceRed Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 Used to have a season ticket at Nice when I lived there ten years or so ago. Mostly because it was very cheap (about £70). I enjoyed the Marseille games which were a bit mental but struggled to get into the others, probably as I didn't care too much. I've got a ticket for a Euro 2016 game in Bordeaux - they're building a new stadium I think? Also got tickets for Marseille at the Euros - can't wait to get back to the Velodrome after the latest redevelopment they've done of it. I went to a Marseille game years ago and it's the best atmosphere I've ever been in - it was a really dull 0-0 against a small team (Troyes) with no roof on the ground, so god knows what it'll be like for a big game now they've put a roof on.

Portland Bill Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 I went to Bordeaux first home game of this season, they lost 1-2. If it helps you, Bordeaux were shite!! But the new ground was fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stadium is up and running, and it's fantastic. It's a bit out of the way,for anyone who is driving to the Euros, the car parking is excellent, over 8,000 free car parking spaces.
