England Match on Thursday
« on: June 10, 2016, 03:05:02 pm »
Been asked by one of the guys coming with us this year whether we'll be able to see the England match anywhere next Thursday afternoon??

I'm sure I'd seen it in a chat somewhere on here, but can't remember for the life of me where....football not been high on my priority list lately.

I vaguely recall someone showing an England match on Maison Blanc back in the early years of my Le Mans trips in the 90's or was it 00's????

Seriously, I expect this being held in France, they will be showing the kickbag on big screens around the village.

There used to always be one at the top end of the paddock road for previous events - near to where the womans exhibit thingy was last year / poo bar.

Or there is always Tertre Rouge bar.

Last time there was a footy event, think it must have been Euro 2012, there was a large crowd watching the England game on a big screen opposite the poo bar.
I tested negative for patience.

We watched the England v Italy game in the last World Cup on a big screen in the village.
This year taking a satellite kit so hopefully (if it works) we will watch it on the campsite at Tertre Rouge.
What have the romans ever done for us?

Thanks all.

I've not been since 2008 - kids/house etc. so knew I'd get an up to date response from here.

Time to log off now and go practice liquid refreshment consumption...have a good pre-Le Mans weekend all!
