Disaster of a draw. Couldn’t have been worse. Long trip and hardly a big money spinner.

Only good thing is it could be a great weekend jolly on the drink down in the south of France 🇫🇷. Decent weather. Nice local beer and wine. Hopefully the club will arrange a chartered flight and hotel package and we get plenty down. Sounds tempting  ;)

haven away to london the week after also 2 long trips and costly.
born and bred haven.

anyone intereseted in going to the south of france.
Get yourself to lloret shaun then bus over to perpignan flight to barca no too pricey either, flights to perpignan airport can be pricey but you could walk to the ground its that close to airport.

Players seem happy about it lol if we make a quid out of it still better than nought! We have had two Home games which could have been away. We have nothing to lose

Also do we still have the connections with the Catalans that were built up a few seasons back when we got the likes of Louis Jouffret, Sisi and Ugo Perez over here?

These could come in valuable if we do

What’s the prize money for reaching this round .?

A director told me in total so far it's £7.5k. it's not as lucrative as you think

That's still a lot for us, and shouldn't be an amount that has been budgeted for.

That's true, but it's still money we didn't expect.
