Moscow

[twistnkuyt]

Depends on what type of invite they are able to provide. If it's a tourist visa then usually your confirmation of booked and fully paid hotel accommodation, plus proof of return tickets (your Tourist Voucher) is enough for you to go to the Russian Embassy and apply for the T.V.

if it's an invite for up to 3months single/double entry then you will not need any proof of accommodation or tickets.. This type of invite is arranged through an accredited company here and a telex with the invite number is sent directly to the Embassy. All that is needed is the number of the invite.

Best contact them to find out what is what regarding the invite..But 18 pounds is a good price for an official invite. (I've paid much more)

Right as regards Hostels.. I know that these are now available here in places, but I'll be honest I wouldn't stay in one.. Better off with a cheap hotel.. I can have a look at a few in the centre of Moscow and get back to you with some ideas (let me know what sort of budget your willing to spend?)

Cheers for that Ray.

We have already booked the Napoleon Hostel for the accomadation, looked alright on the website we went through and had good reveiws.

Though i did feel a bit strange watching the film Hostel last night.

The stadium will probably be fine.

The streets, the airports and even on the planes going and coming back run a very very hugh risk of brawls. Lets not forget, of both sides will be travelling from the same airports, booking onto the same flights. Do you think they can be trusted to all behave? I dont think so. It only takes one for a lot of people to get involved. It being in moscow just adds a greater risk. If the final was at wembely there would still be violence. Its not like when we go there or they come here because someone is out numbered. In moscow it will be an even split of thousands. The police wont be everywhere. It'd be folly to believe there would be no trouble.

There wasnt any real trouble in Cardiff the couple of times we played them there, the airports after the game would worry me though, especially if it was won controversially either way.

21,000 allocation from UEFA. We have 26,000 seasies...how many will have ticked the Auto Cup box?

After the furore last year I can see the club going to seasies first. Anything left for FC holders with all 6 to scrap over.

The club wont go to seasos first, they have not changed the policy from last year.

[Red Star]

The club wont go to seasos first, they have not changed the policy from last year.

I hope they don't but surely they won't want the same uproar as last season?

[Hass]

I'm sure the same discussion was brought up last year.. Not going to Athens if the Mancs get to the final blah blah.

Boys, sit tight and see the results first and then worry about who's in the final later....

So you have to have an away match on your FC to get a ticket.

Anyone reckon there will be any left for 5 credits? I only have the homes.

[Craig_H]

They're not counting the Chelsea Semi Final then??? Why the feck not??

[Craig_H]

That's fecked up - the Chelsea game is sold out, so they KNOW who has purchased a ticket for it, they KNOW who will have the Semi final recorded on their fancard so why cant it count?

[Red Star]

I think, even if they did count Chelsea, they would just have said 7 credits needed, so everyone would still need an away credit to get a ticket.

Pissed off, 'cos when I first read it I thought 6 credits inc. Chelsea was the requirement. Then I read closely and realised I have very little chance even with 6 credits.

Basically been arranged like this to placate the season ticket holders.

[Craig_H]

I wouldnt mind so much if there was any proper chance of GETTING a ticket for a european away, but they're now sold based on the previous season's away attendance, so either way, you're fecked.

I wonder how many of those on the first tier of criteria eligibility will actually take a ticket. I suspect nearly all will take a ticket but plenty will sell it on for a huge amount and wont even go. I doubt they'll be cross-referencing names on tickets against passports at the ground.

[Red Star]

I think Marseille and Besiktas went to all-FC holders but as I couldn't go I didn't buy a ticket.

Remember all the empty places in the Reds section at Porto?

Travel prices are sky-high, so that may put a lot off. Thomas Cook are saying £850 for a day trip and £1200 for a one-nighter. Officially!

It didnt go to all FC holders, because i kept an eye out and remember that it didnt.

Marseille defo did, as I was so tempted but couldn't take the time off work. Wish I had just bought one now

I'm pretty sure Besiktas did too.

I'm pretty sure they didnt mate, as i would've definitely gone to France for the Marseille game, it was the decider and we needed to win to go through.

[Red Star]

Marseille did, I would bet big £ on it. I saw they were available and even picked up the phone but the price (£45?) put me off as I wasn't sure of the days off and would have to try and sell it on.

Sure Besiktas did, too, but not 100% on that.
