My two mates. They’re both out there until the quarters but I’m out there for the duration or until we’re out. So there’s a distinct possibility that we’ll all be heading home before our original planned flights!
CJ I plan on going to second and third games. I'm going on my own so would be more than happy to meet up for the week. Don't know who you are traveling with but having gone to Brazil on my own it gets really expensive having to get taxis from airports etc if your on your own.
First bit of old tat.
My sister in law has excitedly sent over this little beauty and my wife has said that I must share it with all my friends here on the football forum.
A 2018 world cup football souvenir.
Only it isn't. It just says Volgograd on it and the rest of the writing is just the company that made it, so no mention of the world cup at all. Just a plastic football in a box with the word Volgograd on it.
Hope you are all as excited as I am.

Over 500 for the final ticket is pure cash flow madness though
CJ can you explain how the cap system works briefly, want to start getting into following england awayOne off top cap so applied for all 8. One for the credit card. Get it put back on there after Fifa have earned a nice bit of interest on the money for 6 months!

Are there a few CCFC goals of 98 season etc etc up on the shelf there too? B-)Lovely mahogany sideboard you’ve got there
yeah i have done tooJust booked the group stages off work. Going to be sloshed watching football for a week or so. Lovely
If dozens of fans aren’t killed this summer I’d be surprised.Looks like it's going to be lively out there, judging by the Spartak fans last night in Spain ((Bilbao I think) .
Police officer died of Cardiac Arrest while dealing with it.

I think a lot of that neo facist machismo bollocks is in the police over there. I hope you have a good one and are out there for a full month.Fingers crossed that doesn't happen. I'm more concerned about the law enforcement over there than the Ultras. Seen what Soviet police are like too many times.
Got conformation for our tickets yesterday. Sorted out our FAN IDs/Visas this morning.

Got my ticket confirmation today. Happy days. On our way. were on our way. Too Moscow, were on our way!
See there's some nonsense about Quatar in one of the papers this weekend speculating it might come here or the USA .
I don't know what prompted the article unless someone put out a whisper, but it was all the original doubts and evidence of worker abuse /exploitation, the new guy at the top was having non of it .I’m far from convinced that it will be in Qatar. There’s even a chance Qatar won’t exist in it’s current form by then. It should’ve been given to the States when it was awarded. Can’t see it going there in 2022 though as they’re going to cohost it in 2026 with Mexico and Canada. Germany is unlikely as there’s a good chance they’ll be getting Euro 2024. There’s a very limited amount of other countries that could do it at 3-4 years notice.
It's the smallest stadium of the 3 we have and we were only allocated 2k odd. There are going to be a lot there without tickets. I was gobsmacked in Brazil so many turned up without tickets. To go all that way without knowing if you can get to a game or not.Looking forward to it. Surprised the Belgium cap cut off was so high considering the amount we’ve sold for the other games.

- Got to get a team together first. All our keepers are in poor form, and players like Stones and Walker hardly fill you with confidence. When talk of injury prone Wilshire going to be in the squad we are scraping the barrel !
Like your optimism CJ. But I think Walker is overrated and looks like a League One defender, but Wilshire on his day is good. Carson is having a good season in goal but can't see him going.Walker is having a good season. Our best all round keeper is probably Heaton but he’s not been fit for most of the season. It’s sad about Jack as when he’s fit he’s a match winner.
