Celtic vs Villarreal Football Match 30 September 2008

Travellers planning to be in the area of Villarreal in the province of Castellon, Spain, are advised that a Celtic vs Villarreal football match will be taking place at the end of the month.

Celtic fans are advised to leave plenty of time to get to the Madrigal stadium as access is likely to be slow due to body searches and ticket checks upon entering.  The doors will open ninety minutes prior to kick off and at the end of the match Celtic fans should be prepared to be asked to stay in the stadium for half an hour to allow Villarreal fans to leave first. 

Fans should read up on local laws and customs and comply with instructions given by Spanish police and remember that it is illegal to drink in the streets in Spain.  Those ignoring the law could face arrest.
