Disco Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Why Is the game being played behind closed doors? Racism for Lazio and fireworks for Fenerbahce. They're not playing each other btw. Lazio have Stuttgart & Fener have Plzen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maybe_next_year Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 isn't that a bit harsh on Stuttgart and Plzen fans who have already booked travel etc? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leffe186 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 As an American Anzhi fan, I'm really excited to play an English-speaking club Anyone who can make it to Moscow will be well-met by Anzhi fans. If the weather is reasonable there should be at least 15,000 there (though Luzhniki holds 76,000). There are a lot of Dagestanis who live and work in Moscow, plus the general football fans that want to watch good European competition. If you have any questions about Moscow, the team, fans, Russia, etc. feel free to ask me. I've lived in Moscow and Dagestan in the past and watch every Anzhi match. If anyone's interested in meeting with the folks from Anzhi's fan club, the Wild Division, before the match, I can get you in touch with them, too. A number of them speak English, so communication isn't a problem. Looking forward to the tie, though it's going to be a tough one. I have a question. In the bogs in one of the pubs in Kharkiv there was a sign saying you weren't allowed to w***, bum someone, rollerblade or skateboard. This really affected my enjoyment of the Ukraine, is it allowed in Moscow? If it's the same I might not bother. http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/5765/nowanking.png For some reason it's the man pissing away from the toilet that got me. It's his stance more than anything. Was about to post the same thing. Might have already been mentioned, but what's the one three down on the right hand side? No putting soap in toilets?

Guest Geordiesned Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 So if we get through we don't want Lazio or Fenerbahce in the next round or none of us would be able to go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowlingcrofty Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Anything more than a one goal defecit from the away match and we're knackered. If Hatem is going to play anytime soon then I'd prioritise him playing in this over the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leazes.ender Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 So if we get through we don't want Lazio or Fenerbahce in the next round or none of us would be able to go. Fenerbahce only got a 1 game ban if i understand correctly which is their home leg this week. They got a suspended sentence of being banned from Europe next season if it happens again.

Stifler Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 To be honest the only teams I fear at the moment are Spurs and Chelsea. The only other team I fear is us ourselves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowlingcrofty Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Spurs will win it imo. Probably. But we should have no reason to fear them. In the two league games vs them this season we've effectively drawn on aggregate. If we get past Anzhi Makakakakakakakakakakala then I'm hoping for Basel in the next round.

Nothing like getting ahead of ourselves ! Seriously who is left? Fenerbache? A tough away game but we should beat them at home and tough away games against Metalist and Anzi show we are up to the challenge. Lazio? Spurs managed to contain them. Inter? Probably not going through but Spurs hammered them and could have and should have beaten them by a bigger margin, certainly beatable. Benfica? An ageing squad. We have came through some of the toughest tests so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 If we get through I'd like anyone other than Spurs or Chelsea even if it meant it was a more difficult tie. Want a proper European team not a team we play twice a season anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the away leg second, becaue I wont get time off work to go to the away leg if it's the first leg because of Financial year end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
