Great trip, was surprised how many Fax fans went over, hard to say exactly how many but a lot for all that way and expense, 300 at least probably more!

The camaraderie was great, okay it helped we won well but everybody was very really up for some fun and boy did we have some, it was after 3am when I got to bed and we had started out in the afternoon broken by some food and the metro up to the ground.

I bet Toulouse made a bomb on the bars, we stayed for an hour after the game ended and there were loads of Fax fans still there.

Any of you know if the mark us Leythers stamped in the Melting Pot is still there? The Leythers on Tour flag?

We were the first to visit (Sheffield don't count) so it should be retained as an historical artefact

Yer it is pinned up on the ceiling, we gave them a Halifax RLFC scarf and they said they would put it up to go alongside the Fev scarf.

Totally agree Matt.





The Melting Pot staff certainly turned over a lot of money that weekend!

They must have made a killing on Saturday night as well, it was rammed.

We left after 1.30 (am Sunday) and it was still full.

we,ll see

They were undecided whether to open for you lot or risk it and just buy a load of bolts.

They then proceeded to say "except the Leythers" in French

For their crossbows hopefully.

Awesome trip just spoilt a little by having our Halifax RLFC flag ripped from the stand it was tied to and stolen towards the end of the game when we were stood at the opposite end.



Getting over the hangover(s) and already saving for next year!!!
