Villareal away rollcall

[bluesmith]

6 of us booked flying to barcelona from liverpool £57 for flights

same here. liverpool to Barcelona on the 1st Nov 08:20. Same flight?
Any ideas on how to get from Barca to Valencia mate?

Yes same flight 9 of us on it now. Train is looking expensive, cheapest option is hire a car, you can rent one for about £20 a day. If there is a few more on that flight might be worth looking at booking some sort of bus.

Does City provide a package where accomodation/ travel is included?

If you hired your own car it would be a TWO HOUR drive from Benidorm to Villarreal. A bus would take longer a lot longer.

Villarreal is a ONE HOUR car journey from Valencia too if anyone thinks you might be able to stroll over there or just nip on a bus.

you´re right - been trying to explain that Castellon city is a better bet - trains are regular and take 7-9 mins to VR

whats the crack with flying nearby?

Tempted to go to this one. I have got family who we visit each year over near Alicante so I am tempted to book a few days there then make a trip up to villareal which from looking at the map takes about 2 hours in the car, or I could try and get a train

Just got this off the Man City aways website, I was thinking off going here but looking at the proposed ticket prices I might wait before booking anything. I was thinking of going from Barcalona Airport but the train is looking upwards of £75 and over 3 hours, the train from Alicante looks like its about £60 about an hour an half!

Bit of a bastard to get to by all acounts, as its a tiny town and still an hour away from Valencia by train!

Tickets:When Manchester United played there in November 2008,they got 2,800 tickets priced at an eyewaterin £58 and the view was restricted by a glass plate at the front of the stand,

way up the Spanish east coast,seven miles south east of Castellon,38 miles north of Valencia,133 miles north of Benidorm,188 miles south west of Barcelona and 256 miles east of Madrid.

Few of us booked to Alicante on the 1st, stay either there or benidorm that night. Train next day in morning to valencia or castello. Buzzin.

The only problem with staying in castellon is that it is a business town which shuts down pretty much at night
