  • QPR fans in Russia

    Got back last night after two nights in Moscow and three in Volgograd and was amazed how many QPR fans were out there and many fans of other clubs kept mentioning it to us

    Did anyone see the large QPR flag in the stadium Monday which belonged to a mate of mine Ellis?

    Anyway three days of work and I fly back on Saturday morning to rejoin the party

    Was trying to scan the flags during the game, but didn't see it .Also reports over here are saying the locals in Volgograd have been very accommodating.

      I'm over there for the Belgium game, how long is it taking to get into grounds with all the checks and how much for a pint?

        I will try and put a picture up later of the flag

        Locals in Volgograd were really friendly and great people who were fascinated by anyone from England and we shared many beers and loads of vodka without understanding a word we were saying to each other

        Beautiful sunshine and women and an England win of course made for a great little trip plus the cheapest beer 40p a pint in some places made it even better

          To be fair the organisation was excellent and you are in the ground in a couple of minutes

          Both ticket and Fan ID both get scanned to make sure they match

          Most beers were 200 Rubles each which is about £2.70 a pint but some places worked out at 40p a pint in the back streets

            Saw picture of you on twitter Paul in your England top with few others Rangers. Certainly seems like there are plenty Rangers in attendance based from twitter posts/pictures

            your hero travelling back and forth for the games stay safe

              Thanks, sounds like they've got it under control then.

              I'm only in Kalingrad for the day so probably won't have time to find the back streets!

              BTW, if you're going over to Spain in October there's still a lot of cheap flights available. I got a BA flight from Malaga for just under £35.

                I'm very jealous. Sounds fantastic and as suspected if putin says hooligans are not welcome then there won't be any, spending the rest of your days in siberia is not appealing !

                    Hopefully the atmosphere from the England games came across well on the tv

                    Loads of QPR in Russia plus Fulham funnily enough but we are divided by club not Country for a few weeks

                      It's only the youngsters and the Northerners who bring club rivalries up at England games in my experience.

                        That is very true

                        We always meet up with Luton lads as well and to be fair they are as good as gold

                            Ha ha, it;s true though!

                            The Youngsters turn up with an idea of how to behave at an England game they've taken from Green Street whilst the Northerners get pissed and aren't used to travelling to anywhere else other than Magaluf!
