How Do They Spend a Weekend

By: Ivan | February 17th, 2007

Moscow city hosts 6 big football clubs. Poor Moscow region (you have to realize that it’s bigger than Holland!) strongly differs from wealthy Russian capital but also proud to represent two teams in Premier League. One of them is FC Saturn Ramenskoe, curated by mighty general Gromov, ex-military advisor. Saturn is a planet so footballers of FC Saturn usually called “aliens”.

Saturn fansBut who are the real aliens? No doubt their fans are. Take a look at the meeting taken place at local factory “Energy”. Saturn old-timers surely knew what’s this all about and sent there a last year newcomer Oleg Vlasov. He met a bunch of really strange people.

Women in first row seem quite attentive to what Vlasov said. Men in the front enjoying free club booklet. Man at the far door preventing early escape from meeting. Club website said “people were forthright and wanted Saturn to win at least 5th place in next season”. Surely they try. Just to avoid THESE fans anger.
