Blues fans heading for Toulouse

IT’S not just football fans hoping for success this weekend.

More than a thousand Cardiff Blues fans are making the trip to France to cheer on Dai Young’s men in the Heineken Cup showdown with Toulouse tomorrow.

The Blues Supporters’ Club have organised events for all the fans travelling to Toulouse with a karaoke night planned at De Danú Irish Bar, which is partly owned by former Toulouse star Trevor Brennan.

For fans unable to make the trip, the game, which kicks off at 3pm, will be shown at the Arms Park clubhouse.

Families and junior fans are urged to come down to see the game in the Top Lounge to support the team at the home of the Blues from noon.

No tickets are required and it’s free to come along, with face painting and balloon modelling for young supporters in the clubhouse and with the Members Lounge also open for those over 18 with membership.
