We are the Rubin Kazan fans and we speak English.
You can write anything, ask anything and express anything.
Yet keep in mind that you're guests here. Welcome!

You don't need registration to post here.

No Russian! Никакого русского. Only English.

About the route to Kazan: There are some flights from some of european cities straight to Kazan (via Lufthansa for example) but it's no lowcost anyway. It's better to get to Moscow first, you can spend some time there siteseeing. You get to Kazan by plane or train. Plane prices begin with €110-130 (1, 2, 3, 4 - 90 min, transfer to city center ~€15-20). Train - 11,5-13 hours of travelling through the night for ~€12[sitting]-22[open space sleeper]-50-100[4 person coupé]-150-330[2 person coupé] (3 minutes from the railway station to the nearest cheap hotel, 6 min to the stadium, 10 min to the ancient Kremlin). Neither buses nor automobiles are recommended for the transfer, no sense.

Taxis whithin the city are cheap (2 hours of sightseeing for €10; situation might change by that time due to new legislation), you will need to use them as it's quite cold this time of year. Don't forget to take warm clothes, you can face up to -20C if you're lucky enough. Though the game would be cancelled or moved somewhere south if the temperature is -15C or lower. The temperature may vary from these negative numbers up to +15C, check the weather forecast before leaving.

About violence: You'll most probably not face it if you don't go to the suburbs late night showing off with your brand new Burberry, Rolex and tight wallet. Just like anywhere.

Speaking globally:
- Russians like Ireland and the Irish, heard something about IRA and Ulster, some listen to Irish folk music (drinking songs especially ) and celebrate Saint Patrick's Day. Irish pubs are quite popular though mostly they're expensive and are not daily visited. There are some in Kazan as well.

- Russians like England and the English, heard something about the Queen, know (and some even support) about Chelsea (obvious), Tottenham (Pav) and Everton (Bill). Russians like drinking tea which is claimed to be English, adore Beatles and Guy Ritchie, are sure that Livanov-Holmes is the best and confuse England and UK. English is the most widely spoken foreign language. Approximately 99% know that "London is the capital of Great Britain" as it's the first phrase to be learnt in schools =) Russian ultras and hools culture is based on British films such GSH and Football Factory.

Hello,

Kazan really is very, very far from Dublin. Do you think many of you will travel?

SRFC

Suleymanhill

Hello,
not many, I'm sure, what about you?

baralgin

I doubt if there will be many supporters going to Ireland as there are less than three weeks left, and it's quite difficult to get visa in time.

Rubin vs Rovers will be our sixth european trip this year, finances are streched. As we didnt expect to get into the group stage, most of us spent all our cash going to Talinn and Copenhagen. We took about 700 to Talinn, 400 to Copenhagen and 50 to Serbia. I would expect about the same in Kazan. Its a shame because Kazan would be a special european trip!

Maybe someone will win the lottery!

A L E X

May be Rubin's supporters can help Rovers's supporters with accommodation in Kazan. I mean accommodate for free. It should reduce the cost of trip.

Great numbers in Eesti and Denmark!
I'm sure the trip to Kazan would be quite memorable. Yet you have some time to
try your fortune in lotteries)

That's possible but it depends on the lads' number. Anyway there are some places (hotels and hostels) for 10-15 euro per night. That's not so much as compared with travelling costs.

Greetings kazanians, was thinking of doing the overnighter train from Moscow to youselves arriving the morning of the match and maybe having a short sightseeing tour around your city before watching the Super Hoops take on the Rubin's of Kazan.
tell us is there anywhere I could go for a bit of an oul pray the afternoon of the game.
Also whats the price of the beer there and what would you reccomend. not interested in spirits cos me Da warned me off that stuff and the cider when i was a youngfella as he said that was mad mens gargle.

baralgin

speaking about local beer, we'll show you couple of places with locally brewed beer. prices are about 2-6 pounds.
