Long distance away fans, to Elche, Spain
We were in Spain last weekend and took in the La Liga 2, Elche v Sporting Gijon game, tickets €10. I was impressed that a reasonable number of Gijon fans had made the near 900km journey from the north coast of Spain, to the Alicante region. I presume most had flown as the car journey would be 9 or 1...

Re: Madrid City Break/Real Madrid tickets
Hi Padiham We went to Madrid earlier this year, and like yourself had wanted to visit the Bernabeu for a long time. I managed to see a game in the afternoon and Atletico in the evening.
