Are there any reports on Ukrainian ticket sales yet? Can we expect sell outs all around? And how much excitement is there in Ukraine for this thing? There's huge hype in Poland for it but it seems like in Ukraine no one really gives a fvck?
All tickets are sold out. Yes there is plenty of "hype" in Ukraine and people certainly very much "give a fvck".
How is this only 16 pages, it feels like it has gone on forever, at least since I first joined the forum.
Overall this thing went a lot smoother than I thought. There were certainly issues, but nothing of the major sort.
Yes, Ukraine were spared embarassment. Which is good. Luckily most problematic NTs were playing in Poland.
How would Croatian or Russian fans behaving badly embarrass Ukraine? The issue was racism and in the end the BBC was exposed to have taken a journalistic dive.
I suppose they might just embarrass the BBC. Although it'd be hard to prove anything I'd think. Ironically once Akmetov sued the Kyiv Post in London and basically just tried to bankrupt them by fighting the case as long as possible.
Are you two stupid or what? How would these problem teams be an embarrassment for Ukraine? It's all very simple.
Hypothetically speaking, how would say Russian and Croatian fans fighting be an embarrassment for Ukraine? It would be Ukraine's fault if some drunk muts get into altercations with one another?
I thought you would eventually understand the post you were responding to. Just for the dense (and you): Ukraine AVOIDED some part of possible embarrassment, because most of the problem NTs were playing in Poland.
So have there been counter reports that have shown how retarded the BBC are for what they did? Or do the English people still think Ukraine & Poland are wastelands of racists?
