Spartak Moscow away

Don’t know what he was saying but let’s say we got the gist of it and didn’t want to push it as a night in the cells wasn’t an attractive proposition. As I said before as much as it was disappointing to miss the game we had a fantastic trip and the guys we met on the metro that took us in to a Spartak bar couldn’t have been more welcoming.

A scunner to hear that - the stewards and security folk were spot on that I came across just shows how one cunt on a power trip can spoil it for folk. Like that arsehole bouncer Who picks at random who gets in or not - fuckwits playing god for a day.

I didn’t have any colours on just in the off chance there was some over zealous prick trying to pick out Rangers fans - I’m assuming you weren’t wearing colours / scarves etc either?
 
we were in D121, right at the back corner, the SM fans were fine with us and we were not OTT.

We did have a passionate nutter type, well he was just loud, but he joined his mates at half time, being at the back corner mean we were pretty unobtrusive.

The extra beer at the Krapiva and the hike from the Metro meant I was the only one of the 4 of us to see our first goal.

The 2nd, 3rd and what should have been 4th were 3 of the best goals I've seen Rangers score.

It was worth being in the home end just to get out at full time!!

No colours and both in our fifties just wrong guy at the wrong time. On reflection he was probably telling us to gtf away from the Spartak end as we got off at their station after being in the bar but who knows.

Exact same thing happened with my 2 mates. They got to come into the away end with us.

Still on it. Holiday is in for tomorrow (which I'm now dreading). Heading home now. Worth it for the game though. Brilliant performance and a great result.

Might need to hibernate until Vienna.
 
Just had confirmation from Air France that they will be paying compensation of £348 within the next 30 days

Were you on the 1615 to Paris? Somehow we managed to miss the flight. Pretty sure we were there on time though!!

No, the 12.50 that got delayed then cancelled resulting in us getting a flight to Amsterdam, then Moscow and into Moscow 7 hours later than we should've.

Seemed helpful on the email. We were waiting in the line to be rebooked but were near the back so just done it through the app. Boys a know got the later Moscow flight and didn’t get in to 6am on Thursday.

The 1615 Moscow to Paris on the Friday was an hour late but they changed the gate number. I don't think it was by much though, perhaps 43 to 39

They did announce it quite a few times as well. It's a sore one though having to wait another 16 hours.

Be aware, the compensation you should get offered will be two different amounts. You will get a higher offer if you accept a voucher to be used on future flights with SkyTeam members - it should be 350 Euros for the voucher and 250 Euros for cash (this for under 1,500 km journey)

I claimed I never September for a cancelled Paris to Aberdeen flight, accepted the voucher and got it emailed to me within a week.

Take it they put you all on alternative flights for free also?

Glad to see you all getting a few quid back

Yeah, split everyone up but we were all on flights for nothing.

Moscow 5.50pm
Moscow 8.45pm
Paris to Amsterdam then Amsterdam to Moscow.

That was the 3 flights our group were all split up on.

Believe some were put on a 11pm flight to Moscow which would’ve been extra shite.

I was on the 18.55 which got into Moscow around 12.40 am all local time.

I didn't mind the wait at that time of night given that I would get 400 euros back :D

I was on 23:25 out of Paris! Got into my scratcher at 7 in morning.

400 euros softened the blow of waiting!
 
My Warsaw-Vienna flight was cancelled in March, got put in the business lounge for 4 hours and got EUR250 compo for flights that cost EUR200.
