Hi all, good contingent of stokes in o'briens last night too.. Tried to go to vodka bar but due to ONE bloke being smashed they refused entry, called the police and then an english bloke who lives here and was drinking with us had to pay a 400 hyrvinia bribe for the police to leave them alone. Anybody got a master plan for Today?

Mark, we were walking behind you and at some point you disappeared out of sight! so we then started roaming the city in search of Dean's apartment coz he didnt know the exact address lol... anyway, everything's great... glad to hear you got to your place safely.. obrien's sounds much better than my boring office, i envy you at the moment

Loads of stokies on the Heathrow flight this morning. Arrived a little while ago with scousestokie1 & 2. Looks great, just about to go off and meet up with the gang. Kiev is fabulous, really love the view from the hotel, fantastic old buildings etc.
Really looking forward to the game tonight.

Great to meet Den, and Igor, and friends and to share a beer both before and after the game. Made the experience so much more enjoyable.
Loved every minute of today, despite scousestokie1 emptying the minibar in my hotel room!!!!! Den has been an absolute star.... we must come again.

What a day!!! Good morning, Stokies!!! It was something! Thanx to all the guys, who came to Kyiv! We really enjoyed this Kyiv-Stoke party all day long! It was so great to see you! I felt like I know you for years! After all our "oatcake-meetings" Volvic with his friends - hAppy days - good times Robinredcoat - your coat is really red! scousestokie1 & Vicki - the Hudson-shirt is just WOW! Thanx! andystokey - we talked a little, so you should definetly come back! neckendnick - I hope you enjoyed LOTS of pubs on your way Pricey - specialist in Kyiv geography! (I hope you & your mate found Olympic stadium!) Krisstoke - thanx, mate, I m still thinking you should have taken a day-off and join us at the pitch! Lee - the tea was great! & ALL THE GUYS WE VE MET WITH - YOU ARE GREAT! Maybe, sthg went wrong - I m sorry! It was just not enough time to enjoy the communication with all of you (on the other hand, Stoke City should be happy that they have SO many great supporters! I d love to see you, guys, again! & I hope Dynamo & Stoke meet in Europe League final in Bucharest P.S. The supporters match was AMAZING! Great strikes, strong defence, brilliant saves (we had such a great goalkeeper!!!), photos at the pitch & 3-3 at the end with Stoke-side last minute equalize! P.P.S. Later at night our teams (Dynamo & Stoke City) almost repeated our match-scenario, but visa versa

Yes I wish we had more time to be able stay here. it has been great all round.
enjoying a nice breakfast in my hotel (and what a breakfast it is) i may get time for another little look around before heading to the airport.
please give our apologies to Igor, after we left Sushiya last night we were going to meet him again at Lucky bar but we had a drink in the hotel bar then got chatting to some people in there and we didnt get to Lucky bar.
good luck to Kyiv for the rest of the season. i hope you manage to beat Shaktar and win the league.

Hi Den,
Would have loved to play but also had an appointment at the American Medical centre got some issues with my back\neck
The hospitality has been amazing here your Kyiv people are a credit to your country and I really hope one day you can sort out your politics issues.
I must also congratulate your Police no sign of any force or bribes etc. like some country’s I’ve been to. We were even having some friendly chatting on the way back into town with them
Viva Dynamo Kyiv
