Fans' Feedback

Liverpool fans have visited the French city twice in the not-too-distant past, including most recently in September 2008. Those who'd visited before will have already been well-aware of the poor facilities at the Stade Velodrome, particularly the toilets.

Thankfully for them, though, on this occasion the weather remained dry, which seeing as more than three quarters of the ground is uncovered can only be a good thing. That wind can whip in off the Mediterranean, however, and of an evening the Velodrome can be a pretty cold place to be.

Despite having something of a dubious reputation domestically, we found very little evidence of any trouble between the two sets of supporters on either trip, and there are enough bars around the old port area for fans to keep themselves to themselves.
