Day: August 1, 2013

This morning, I had the privilege to visit the Roudourou stadium. It is the home of En Avant de Guingamp, our local football team. We were initially told we would only see the changing rooms of the visiting team. But a member of Staff turned up and showed us around En Avant de Guingamp’s changing rooms and facilities. It was nice, but sober. There was nothing extravagant about the equipment. But it was fairly comfortable.

It is fascinating to think that a small club in a small town like Guingamp , with a small budget, is going to face teams like Marseille and PSG. One interesting fact is that there are more people with a season ticket than inhabitants in the town (7281 in the latest census)
