Greetings to all Rosenborg fans from Saint Petersurg, Russia.

We'll be glad to play in 1/16 UEFA cup with you. It is quite cold in both Russia and Norway, so we will most likely meet u in Krasnodar, Southern Russia. Do u guys have any information about the field (city, country) Rosenborg is going to play its home round game?

We will of course play at home. Lerkendal, Trondheim. We always do...

When will the venue be decided?

I have to admit that I already have booked flight tickets to St. Petersburg... Embarassed

Is it decided that the match will be played in Krasnodar?

If so, how is the possiblities for me getting from St. Petersburg to Krasnodar in the afternoon of Wednesday 22nd and back again on Friday 24th in time for my flight at 14:25 local time?

It seems like there are now nonstop flights. Do I have to travel via Moscow?

What about travelling with the RBK-charter?

Yep, that's the easy way! But the originally 2700 NOK trip from Trondheim to St. Petersburg is very much cheaper than the aprox. 7000 NOK offer from Rosenborg/Peer Gynt Tours.

Hi guys,

Don't hurry with plans on trip to SPb - game might will take place at Krasnodar. At least there are some flights but it will cost additional 200-300 EUR.

Regards,

Yes! I managed to cancel my Economy tickets at SAS. Very Happy

Now I'll choose the Rosenborg charter instead. Is Krasnodar a big city?

About 750,000 inhabitants 2mas! Smile

Thought actually so. Unknown cities in Russia is like Norwegian metropoles!

According to Rosenborg, Zenit will decide the venue next week. Zenit say it is 50/50 weither the match will be played in St. Petersburg or Krasnodar.

Are there by the way any Zenit forums to discuss the draw?

At 2002 it was 791.354 inhabitants. Now might be more a bit.

Babelfish translates Russian - English pretty OK

Babelfish is one of most funny things I've ever met. Nothing about translation as we understand it but it creates great laugh Smile

Candyman · Proff Joined: 05 Jun 2005 Posts: 314 Location: Trondheim

Yeah, Babelfish is not perfect, but it makes it understandable Smile
