Anzi Away

Anyone doing Anzi Away?

Can't miss it after Maritimo, Brugge, Bordeaux & Kharkiv.

I'm going through the process of getting an invite, visa forms & flights.

Complicated but hoping it all gets sorted in time.

London to Moscow, thinking over Wed, back Sat.

Let me know anyone keen!

 

That will be some hike, my missus whinges when I go to St James and that's only three miles away

 

Working for minimum wage attempting to get out of a post-uni overdraft - I can barely afford Morpeth never mind Moscow!

Fair play though, nothing but respect for all the boys who make the trip!

 

I'll be going.








.....to turn the thermostat up, feeling glad I'm not in freezing Moscow. Don't deal well with the cold as it is!

 

If anyone is going to this game, NUFC.co.uk have uploaded some information which is beneficial to you.

I've heard it's quie a lot of hassle getting in and out of Russia.

 

especially out

 

They're looking for people for the salt mines and they've heard that Geordies are good miners.

 

I do not wish to go to Russia to listen to our players get racially abused, thank you very much.

The Russians are racist bastards, and I bet they'll have a field day seeing how much Black players we have.

I hope we beat the bigots.

 

Something else on the NUFC.com page about the game.

From what we can gather, United could be backed by as few as 50 fans travelling from the United Kingdom, in temperatures that are currently between -7 and -14.

If you're feeling super-confident about our chances of progressing in the competition make sure you apply for a multiple entry visa, to avoid going through the same ball ache if and when we encounter Rubin Kazan or Zenit on the road to Amsterdam.

There's also a warning about pickpockets operating in the area.

I'll be settling down to watch it on the box.

Have got my ticket and travel booked for the Wigan away game however.

 

Dropped visa application in today. Hoping it comes back tomorrow so I can book my flights to Moscow!

 

Best of luck.

 

...and you can bet that if it was an English club guilty of racism they'd get kicked out of Europe and banned.

 

Buzzing... Visa came back, flights now booked!

 

lol am I the only one that finds this ironic?

 

Best of luck mate!

 

Anyone know of pre match boozer for Thursday in Moscow?

Also anyone going PM me and we can sort a few of us to at least meet up!

 

Tash isn't being racist, just xenophobic

 

Nope

Tash you cant label all russian fans as racist, Thats descrimination, Just like you cant label all people from sunderland mackems, lets face it some support newcastle and smoggies.

But i do agree that there seems to be a lot of vocal racism from that end of europe and i beleive it comes from the football FIRMS¬!!!!!!!<_------- (just remember these firms are like our old firms from the 80-90s. Racism was one of least worrying things then, Violence is just as bad.

NOT the fans.

Never the less, I hope our mutli racial players dont get abuse. A black man is still just a man.
