Mr Marshall,

The 3 of us had booked with the others to go to Lithuania when the provisional dates were announced. So we're going from Vilnius with Lithuanian Airlines to Kiev. We've booked into the Sports Hotel, cheap as chips...here's the website we used..... www.hotelsukraine.com When i booked the other week though they only had single or triple rooms left.

Alright Mr Heed!

Try www.estonian-air.ee/ (Estonian Airlines). You can get a flight from Tallinn
to Kiev for less than £100 (2,191.00 Estonia Krooni = 96.9143 GBP)
The same airline fly from london to Tallinn, or ofcourse our trusty friends
easyjet do. Might sound like a long way round for a short cut but direct
flights from london to kiev are around £400 now! This isn't how I'm getting
there because we'd already booked to Lithuania for the provisional game! Costing
us a damn sight more to get there.. would have went down the Tallinn route otherwise.

The sport hotel in kiev looks pretty reasonable, cheap as chips, close to the airport and
seeminlgy not far from the olympic stadium where Ukraine normally play.

Let me know how you go!

Cheers
Ross

Ps- tried to email you, didn't work- think I've your old address.....

Aint I glad I said where Ukraine "normally" play.

Hopefully game will still be in Kiev. No idea why they think it could be played in Donetsk- 'the super stadium' there aint expected to be finished for another 3 years!

The problem in Kiev seemingly aint the stadium- there building some euro 2012 info centre next to it which blocks access to one corner of the stadium.. Although this is seemingly in the process of being sorted.

However Ukrainian FA General Manager has said "We will wait until the last minute before announcing the venue for the match against scotland, which is 60 days"

Fcukers!!
