[RVclaret]

These are some decent opponents for pre season who will play football more on par with PL sides.

I take it there will be another game the weekend before City?

[jedi_master]

Tempting that….

[Nonayforever]

Do we know date and time and which ground ?

Nice trip to Faro for a few days, pop across the border to watch the game.... sorted (without wishing to start a brexit diversion on the thread).

It's a shame they aren't actually playing at Betis' stadium because Seville is a stunning city

You could fly to Malaga and get the train for around 200 quid inc flight.

Always the plan to play there.

And I’ve just merged my thread with Dan’s. Think we were both posting at the same time.

Watch out those that are going because the ultra group of Real Betis fans called the "Supporters Gol Sur" are a nasty bunch

Club have confirmed date, time and stadium but no mention of open to public. Or have I missed it?

Well they said ticket details to follow so......

[1989_claret]

Yeah hoping them saying ticket details to follow means we can go otherwise I’ve jumped the gun

Gonna be seriously hot in Huelva late July

[criminalclaret]

Just recently done the trip from Faro (via Heulva) to Seville on the bus. FlixBus (green) ones, cost about 15 quid and was a breeze.

Heulva looks a dump though so definitely try to get to Seville as it is stunning! 4th biggest Spanish city and lots of Moorish/Arab sites as well as umpteen million tapas bars. Not many speak English (which I didn't mind) so a bit of basic Spanish/ Spanglish and you should get by.

It's gets VERY hot there, was 44+ for a few days when I was there, I expect it to be boiling in July.

Enjoy boys!

Have you tried Olhao?

[NickBFC]

Tavira is lovely if you want to stay over the border. Not far from Huelva, hour or so drive.

Will remember to take my selected head covering

[Bullabill]

Which head are you taking?

[mybloodisclaret]

In the 40's!!!! Talk about warm weather training. Would love to go on this one, but with family holiday coming up in mid August (fly out hours after we beat City) I just can't afford it.
