This next trip to Russia sounds like a trip I to the unknown. A team that's only 10 years old that end up 6th in the Russian league and to cap it off they play on an artificial pitch. Sounds tricky.!

A team that went bust and reformed 20 years ago. Celtic fans will live that.

The worst part is that it is right in bandits country / the middle of nowhere. Some trek getting there sure its about 2 hour flight from moscow.

Lads, I have worked in Russia before and the place I worked was about 400 km east of Ufa in a place called Chelyabinsk . outside of the modern parts of Moscow, Russia is a very grim country. Hell of a trip for the players as well as they’ll likely fly to Moscow and then a further 2.5 hours to Ufa. Our saving grace is that it’s not quite winter yet and therefore temperatures will be similar to home. One things for sure is that if we continue in Europe and play every Thursday and Sunday, we will need a big squad.

Could have done without the away leg right before the Celtic game.
