    Default Fixtures 2019

    When are the fixtures released?

    Well it appears that the Pies already know they'll be playing Catalan in June at the Nou Camp......

    Just read about this. Surely this won't happen?

    There is a stadium over the road that Barcelona B play at that holds 15,000, surely that would be the venue for any RL match. The Nou Camp is bloody huge I'd be surprised if they opened that up.

    "Incredible but true, the Catalan Dragons enter the sphere of FC Barcelona: they are invited to play a Super League match at Camp Nou."

    "The president of FC Barcelona has indeed proposed to his counterpart of Catalan Dragons, Bernard Guasch, to receive Wigan, in June 2019, on the mythical lawn Camp Nou. A stadium that only recently received rugby matches on one occasion: in the Top 14 final between Toulon and Racing 92 in June 2016."

    They paraded the cup at the Barcelona v Girona game today apparently.

    Pretty sure they've played there before, but this one definitely scheduled for Nou Camp

    If we can get Catalans away in the Summer months, I’ll delighted. Having a few weeks notice because of the Super 8’s fixtures has been a nightmare.

    Pretty much a Catalan political gesture. With the Dragons and two Catalan teams in Barcelona and Girona.

    I think it was Warrington played in Barcelona, but pretty sure it was at the Olympic Stadium.
