biffer Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 SKA-Khabarovsk were promoted to the top tier of Russian football this season. If they qualify for Europe, that's a bloody long midweek journey for someone. It's a few hundred kilometres from Vladivostock, on the Chinese border.

wanderer Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 They have actually just been promoted from a league where their furthest away game was Baltika Kaliningrad.....I think Zenit St Petersburg is their furthest away game now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaggycoo Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 A return flight from Edinburgh would set you back a cool £2.5k. Would how much the train would be?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Trans-Siberian Express from Moscow is something like £400 one way....... you get stories of car loads of fans traveling from St Petersburg and Moscow to the furthest East game, then the car breaks down and they get a lift home on the official club charter plane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
