Russophobia

[dublin7]

When you have to watch your back because the cops are looking to rob you at every opportunity it isn’t a good sign.  I just felt sorry for the poor Japanese tourists who they were robbing blind.

I went over to Moscow for an Ireland match a few years ago and the local police were robbing Irish fans everywhere. They were asking fans for their passports/I'd and then demanding money from them before they'd hand it back.

It's a crazy country and I won't be going back.

I'm sure the Russians are devastated.

I’m sure they are glad you’re their champion on all things Russian, you created a thread about it and Putin was saying on Twitter the other day that his comrade from the sticks of Tyrone, or worse Strabane, has got his back!

You’ll be awarded the Order of Friendship medal and bestow you with a plot in the Karatayka district, the GAA board 6 have chipped in for your fare, so three cheers to them, whoever they are.

I know a good few Ireland fans who were over there in 2002 and/or 2011 and most had similar experiences

There are parts of the country are fantastic but the hostility and the looking over your shoulder all the time for me also mean that.

You will never see more beautiful women than you do in red square though. Even the £7 pint in 2010 was worth it.

Russia is unique in that it is apparently the only country in the world that has no gay people

Amazing stuff
