Mike7077 Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Kuban Krasnodar are a newly-promoted team at the point at which the game starts. They're an unfashionable team and it's a hard job keeping them up. FC Krylia Sovetov are one of the better supported non-Moscow teams. They have a very passionate home and away following, but they haven't really had any success as such. "Krylia Sovetov" means "Soviet Wings". Andrei Kanchelskis ended his career there. If you manage them well, you could theoretically challenge for the title, but you'll never have the resources of the big Moscow clubs or Zenit.

thefox69 Posted December 19, 2009 Author Share Posted December 19, 2009 cheers mate krylia sovetov sounds like a good challenge than being the usual big russian teams, whats the foreign role policy in russia? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harryohh Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I'm with Zenit. It's good.Lot's of money to spend. There can be no more than 6 foreigners (non russians) in the first team and also there must be 1 under 22 Russian in the match day squad (i.e the first 11 or bench). Also Russian Citizenship is gained after 6 years in Russia. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike7077 Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I believe you even have to have at least five Russians on the pitch at any one time. This makes substitutions tricky! I recommend this book for anyone interested in Russian football - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Football-Dynamo-Modern-Russia-Peoples/dp/0753515717/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1261181904&sr=8-1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefox69 Posted December 19, 2009 Author Share Posted December 19, 2009 We should have that rule in England to be fair Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suggy33 Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 You can have upto 7 foreigners on the pitch from my experiences with Rubin Kazan. Krylia were alwys my bogey team, but usually finished around mid table. I\'d really reccommend Rubin Kazan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
