Belarus V England

Im travelling over from england to watch this game.

I have bought a ticket in sector 18 which is in the home end. Our fans are in sector 12.

Do you think i would be able to walk round to the English section %26amp; sit with my fellow compatriots or would the security stop me???

Also which end do Belarus %26quot;hooligans%26quot; sit? I wouldnt fancy sitting with them with my England shirt on ha ha

Finally im staying in the hotel %26quot;belarus%26quot; %26amp; need to travel to the hotel %26quot;sputnik%26quot; how far apart are the two?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Regards

Dave

Dear Dave,

I cannot tell about walking to the England sector, although possible. However, I am not sure what they do with the tickets they fail to sell in England.

You should cross the Pobeditley Avenue to where buses 1 and 69 stop and travel 3 stops until the turn to the right - GUM Stop. Then take 100 for 3 stops until %26quot;Gastsinitsa Spadarozhnik%26quot; and you are there.

I count on heavy presence of police in all sectors, especially sectors 18, 25 for one particular reason, which you may guess. Besides, there will be a couple of officers on rows 27, 28. I will see to that personally.

I will be located at Sputnik on these dates.:)

Any questions - shoot at once.

Sector 16 levels with the line of gates, 17 and 18 are behind it. Walking through 5 sectors might be tricky. Although sectors 13, 14 are closer.

Do you really think English sector will be safer?

Bus 1. I don%26#39;t think it stops at Independence Square - it takes a turn to the left after Minsk Hotel and goes to the Railway Station - final stop.

PS. And with the rate of re-selling going on right now there will be more than 20 your fellow countrymen in sector 18 - you have my word for it.

Siarhei, could you please tell me where did you take pictures of Academicheskaya and Ursula Hotel that are currently on your site?

They look a lot like those I took myself this winter.

Thank you,

Andrei

bought a ticket from black market dealers. cost me 20 euro. prices vary from 20 to 80 euro. but the tickets are plenty. i think even if someone arrives on the day of the match he will find a 80 euro ticket.

So there are still black dealers. And what sector was that if I may ask? 20 euro doesn%26#39;t seem a central part?
