Hey, just wanted to see if any of you guys could help me out here. I'm going to be in Paris for the weekend of the 13th. I see that psg is playing Le mans away. Does anybody have any idea if I could get to that match? Also, if not, are there places to watch english soccer in paris? Like, oh I don't know... the Arsenal? I'm not really a fan of the french league, but I do love the game and would like to see something during my short stay. Thanks.

Hit the Raileurope.com website. It's only 90minutes to Le Mans by TGV. It'll run you $125 RT but you could do better purchasing a ticket in Paris. I've given you a link to the site but look around, you could get a better fare:

Go to the PSG store on Rue de FDR near Place de Concorde. They should have away ticket info and could possible get you in touch with a supporters group (The Ultras) that could be making a road trip to Les Mans.

Make sure you take some pics while you're there and don't stare into a flare once it's been lit!

Check and see if any of the other clubs are home, not the Paris clubs - just any clubs.

Also check RyanAir. You might be able to get a cheap flight to Marseille or some place.

Also, you might want to throw a post in the travel (http://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?daysprune=&forumid=692) forum, to get some more opinions of traveling in Paris.
