Kyiv is an hour ahead of Saint-Petersburg and Moscow (which are three hours after GMT). Could be that that's simply where UEFA have decided to draw the line.

I thought it was agreed due to the freezing temperatures that you can get over there in the later hours and it was a safety decision

Whatever the case may be regarding kick off times in Russia it was wrong that our game in Kiev was on so late. Finishing games just before midnight is ridiculous, can't be good for body recovery after a game

Must love seeing Cahill, worth a tenner every time. Chelsea have ben given a footballing lesson over 2 games, BT are worse than anyone for BS. You can guess already the script for Thursday night will be this could be CL final at clanfield.

Thursday night, is something happening?

Yeah I've got a golf lesson Beefy!

Actually, I am aware of the different time zones.

It is simply that i wanted to point out that it is ok for the Moscow game to go ahead early, but City not only play late at night(exacerbating the problems we have with so many games, injuries, recovery times after w*nk FA Cup matches, that become meaningless cos we play juniors) ,the fans are eventually allowed to go to the game(and find out about two to three weeks in advance !), which kicks off at a god awful time, leaving little chance to fly back to the UK in any reasonable time . Meanwhile the 10 fans from Lisbon get to leave Moscow at an early time for them and probably still get home around midnight their time !

The 'mother of all games' aka ' the has been cup'.

I like football so I think I'll tune into Spurs/Dortmund tonight.

Who are you up for.
The Prussians or The Spuds.

Spuds with a couple of key injuries for me.

Edit: don't give a toss about the other pair, as long as they kick the fcuk out if each other.

I am in the camp of City and fuck the rest. I couldn't care less about supporting other English clubs in Europe. Never have and never will. Winning is a habit and a win for spuds breeds confidence whereas a defeat will dent it. The more the other English representatives lose in Europe, the better as far as I'm concerned. A knock to Lloris or Erikson wouldn't be cried over either

Pure self interest here Notts.
Hope they get a bit further with the injuries you mention and meet the least worst of the other pair, who hopefully have knocked lumps out of each other also.
Then let them and rags/scouse knock the shit out of each other again.

Looked up what borussia means.
Apparently a derivative of Prussia.
He's to busy watching Reus put his second of the night in to comment anyway.
