troopio Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Russia are quite possibly one of the worst sides ive seen in years at a tournament. I think even Scotland would give them a game and that is saying something....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogmc Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Genuinely wouldn't be surprised to hear match fixing allegations about this mob in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Co.Down Hibee Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 They'll need to improve drastically for the wC or get a piss easy group to prevent them being punted earlyfrom it,awful side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanky_ffc Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 They're getting slaughtered - and rightly so - by most major newspapers, including Russian ones. Words like 'embarassing' and 'humiliating' are being banded about and there's a real worry about the state they're in with a WC only 2 years away. I can't say I agree with them being awarded the tournament, but hopefully they can get their act together as there's always a bit of downer if the host nation goes out very early.

Tournament is going to be horrendous anyway. Going to be night and day from this one in regards to atmosphere etc (wellllll maybe there will be some fighting too...) just struggling to see how this is going to be any good at all. Really can't see fans travelling in the same numbers. Yet to see what the host cities are but I imagine there'll be a fair few shiteholes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record, Moscow, St Petersburg, Kalinigrad, Kazan, Krasnodar, Nizhny Novgorod, Rostov-on-Don, Samara, Saransk, Volgograd and Sochi are the host cities.
