Viva España

Glad to hear that marra, my filthy mind had her.... sorry, shouldn't go there. Hope alls well.

 

I have known of her previously, but thats not happening anymore. Anyhow you going to Benidorm?

 

No, I was just searching this thread to ask the same question of anyone posting about going.

Anyone going?

 

I'm going,booked up about 4 weeks ago for 6 nights,staying in benidorm.

 

Well done marra, I look forward to your tour updates

 

Word from some mates in Murcia, is that may well be playing in pinataar which is basically the mar menor, about an hour by car from Alicante airport, much closer to corvera airport but you can’t get decent flights unless you live in our capital. I lived ten minutes from pinataar for 3+ years not a load of bars for a pre season tour, not really a resort type place, so let’s hope my infos wrong and it’s nearer Benidorm, (which by the way is about an hour and a half away). I’m still going no matter where the **** it is, and I’ll not whinge just get on with it and drink.

 

What dates you there mate? 16th-23rd for us

 

We are there 17th till 23rd,hopefully take in both games.

 

That’s certainly the plan! Hopefully more details on location/opposition soon.

 

6 weeks today until we fly. Still no idea where the games will be played or who we’ll be facing

 

I don't care who we play,just like to know where and when....

 

The venue would certainly help for planning Never mind

It's fine keeping who we are playing a secret but surely the when and where should've been announced a long time ago?

 

Of course it should’ve, not like they give a **** though.

Update on preseason games in Alicante

Wait a minute. Is that ground an absolute mile away from the centre ?

 

Three hour round trip from Beni.

Sooo glad I didn't bother.

 

What an absolute joke that is btw. People will have paid up. Flights and digs then you simply don't expect a 3 hour round trip.
