Officials of Biarritz Olympique have stated that agreement has been reached with the relevant authorities in San Sebastian and that their Heineken Cup quarter final clash with Munster will now take place in the Anoesta Stadium.

However, it still remains for ERC and the FFR to sanction the move and representatives of both those organisations plan a site visit to the proposed match venue tomorrow (Thursday) to satisfy themselves that all is in order.

In the event that they give it the go ahead them Munster supporters can expect in the region of 8,000 tickets to be made available to them.

Biarrtiz Olympique are anxious that those travelling to the game will make Biarritz their base and they have promised to leave no stone unturned in an effort to accommodate the Munster supporters even pledging to organise coach transport to and from San Sebastian on match day.
