Thought i'd post to see who else is going to the match and/or drinking in Huelva on Friday.

Had a look at the seating plan and we've sold over 200 tickets.

Don't forget your suncream!

It's more like 300+, as one of the blocks is fully sold out, so it's not showing on the seating plan.

Fantastic support really that. Wish I could have afforded. Hope you all have a Huelva time. Apols I'll get my coat.

Yes, there are some Benalmadena Clarets going: I'm stuck at home with acute tonsillitis and am on antibiotics for two weeks, so count me out.

Get well soon! Hope you're being well stocked with ice cream!

Amazing coincidence Zizkov, I've just put a couple of spoonfuls of ice cream on my portion of Mrs Vino's home made apple turnover!

Where are people meeting/drinking on Thursday and Friday before the game?

1989_claret · Post by **1989_claret** » Wed Jul 26, 2023 8:53 pm

Exactly why I started the thread. Be good to get a group of us meeting in the same place but had a look and doesn’t look great for watering holes except the Red Lion.

Looks like there’s lots of very small bars dotted around the city, but doesn’t seem to be any squares with bars on or whatever.

Flying to Faro tomorrow evening, will be Huelva for midday.
Really looking forward to a mini European tour.

My ticket is on the south side at the halfway line. I’ll just have to enjoy it quietly.

Grahamjack · Post by **Grahamjack** » Wed Jul 26, 2023 11:28 pm

Currently sat in Silken Al Andalus palace hotel with my son Hugo 100 yards across from Real Betis ground in Seville. Doing a tour tomorrow, driving down on Friday.

Hugo in his Seville shirt going down a storm!!!

Not sure if Andrew Walmsley reads this board. But if he does would be great to meet up for a beer if you are popping across to the match

I’ve stayed in that hotel a couple of times. It’s where the Betis team gather before a home game. Last time I was there it was the Seville derby at Betis and there were thousands outside the hotel chanting for hours !

We’re in Manilva and driving across in the morning? Is there any specific area to head to for a drink before the game?

WarringtonClaret · Post by **WarringtonClaret** » Thu Jul 27, 2023 6:20 pm

After having a walk around, I have found a square in the city centre - Plaza de las Monjas, which has lots of bars and cafes on it. It’s a 20min walk to the stadium from here.

Brilliant effort

Well done clarets.

Sadly I won’t be one of them. Nothing more I’d have loved than to go and watch us in Lisbon and then travel down to the south coast of Portugal/Spain for another match - but by the time it was all announced a combination of cost/work commitments made it too difficult.

I really hope the club give us more notice if they’re doing this again next year.

Have a great trip if you’re going. That square WarringtonClaret has found looks great

Been in The Red Lion this afternoon - end of Av. Martin Alonso Pinzon
Good bar.
There's not really a lot around and looks like it it could be really busy tomorrow.

Chatting to a few other Clarets this morning and they said people are meeting at The Red Lion pub this afternoon. Know a few went last night and we had a couple in there late on too. An ok pub to be fair.

Hats off to all of you making the effort to get there.

What a great time to follow our 'little' club!

Red Lion it is then! See you all there!
According to Google, it opens at 3pm.

It looked like there were bars that open at 8 along the waterfront for after the game but as 1989 says, nothing for before.
