Lionheart10 Posted 15 June 2016 Posted 15 June 2016 Before this tournament I would have, but following the events in Marseille and being in the main square when it all kicked off, I've got my doubts I will now. There's rumours of a Leicester fan seriously injured after the events on Saturday and hopefully he will recover ASAP It is true unfortunately,he is in a coma at the moment,there is thread in Euro 2016. We are all hoping he makes a quick and full recovery.
Bayfox Posted 15 June 2016 Posted 15 June 2016 There is no reason to be afraid if you take the Braunstone Massive with you FB_20160615_18_43_58_Saved_Picture.jpg Still reckon that's Joe hart at the front.
Manwell Pablo Posted 15 June 2016 Posted 15 June 2016 Don't give a Fck where it is if I'm lucky enough to get a ticket to any away game I'm there.

promised land Posted 15 June 2016 Posted 15 June 2016 Being honest, having see the levels they are willing to go to. No won't get me out there now. Same here, was all set to do every one of the aways but if we draw one of these ill pass on that one. The home game won't be much better either.
Guest Bilo Posted 15 June 2016 Posted 15 June 2016 I wouldn't fancy it at any rate, but I imagine it's quite unlikely we'll meet a Russian side.CSKA are in Pot 1 with us, while Rostov have to get through two qualifying rounds as an unseeded side who'll need to beat sides like Ajax, Shakhtar and Porto to make the group stage. I'd be more worried about Napoli away to be honest; it's a dangerous city to strangers without football, leave alone the famously stabby ultras.
zealot Posted 19 August 2016 Posted 19 August 2016 Hey coatsworth999 Rostov had a great result in Champs League... In Amsterdam the other night against Ajax they drew 1-1. So I'm hopefully they will win in the return leg. Then City'll have a chance of travelling out to the Don to see them. Again, I'm probably one of the only Leicester fans that seems to want this to happen though. I think most are cheering on Ajax for the possibility of an Amsterdam trip... Additionally, with my Silver membership I'll probably have more chance of getting a ticket to the Away game if we play Rostov than Ajax in the group stages...
boots60 Posted 19 August 2016 Posted 19 August 2016 Cant see a problem with obtaining tickets to Rostov if they get past Ajax. I'm praying that they dont. A 12 hour trip from heathrow including a 3 to 4 hour wait at Moscow airport to go to a City on the edge of a war zone in one of the most corrupt countries in the world with unhinged hooligans will not have the same appeal as a couple of days chilling in Amsterdam. And for the weather watchers among you I believe it gets a bit chilly.

Rostov would be a horrid trip, wouldn't be keen on Beskitas either, and then there is the boredom of facing another trip up to Park head, Pot 4 looking a bit of a minefield at the moment.

It's comfortably mid-table in corruption rankings... Rostov is not the same proposition as Moscow in terms of hooligans. In fact there are strong parallels between Leicester and Rostov in footballing terms.

After waiting all my life for a crack at the champions league, like every other City fan I just want the whole experience to be enjoyable & memorable for all the right reasons & a trip to Amsterdam sounds a lot more appealing than Rostov.
foxy boxing Posted 19 August 2016 Posted 19 August 2016 i won't be russian to get tickets for any match in that country

Because there is no history of Russian hooligans traveling to different countries to let alone another part of their own to beat the shit out of innocent England fans. Nope, can't remember that happening.
Grewks Posted 19 August 2016 Posted 19 August 2016 Why anyone would want to go to Russia is beyond me. Moscow? Pre-war, no hooligan issues, sure, wouldn't mind seeing the Kremlin......but Rostov? Rather take my chances in Naples with a Ranieri Roma shirt.
Benji Posted 19 August 2016 Posted 19 August 2016 Instead of a scarf and goodie bag hopefully the owners will supply travelling fans with a metal chair.

That would be a waste of time though, all the videos I've seen of thugs throwing chairs couldn't hit a barn door with a banjo, they went nowhere near where they were supposed to go one thug even threw one and it went up the side of a building, like standing on the first tee and slicing it straight into the hedge.
Russell sprout Posted 19 August 2016 Posted 19 August 2016 I wouldn't go meself, but there's a stigma associated with English football fans,I think wherever we go well be targeted
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 19 August 2016 Posted 19 August 2016 Wot! Those bloody Russian toilets are a no-no. I don't want my penis cut off, and served up as a Capitalist "Hot Dog"
