    Had to google bc outside of the 5 big international stadiums I have no idea where any of these grounds are. Its apparently GGL Stadium which is the ground for Montpellier Hérault who are a top 14 side so i’d assume are the Montpellier.

    Its quite a nice looking stadium (apart from the state of the pitch), but another opportunity to be shocked that a metropolitan population of 800k or so has their rugby team in a 16k capacity ground - that’s not much bigger than McLean Park which services maybe around 160-180k :)

    A reminder that even though there’s loads of money in Rugby in France and it is big, its not football big!
