Would love to go to kaliningrad (Konigsberg) to see England v Belgium - a Russian enclave between Poland and Lithuania, formerly part of East Prussia until annexed by Russia in 1945 after Nazi Germany was defeated. Looks a good one. On the radio they were suggesting that there is very little accommodation there and most fans will probably have to stay in Poland/ Lithuania and travel over for the game. Apparently the Russian's are putting on free trains and local transport for all 'official supporters' If I was an England fan I would stay in the wonderful city of Gdansk in Poland. About 100 miles from Kaliningrad and crucially, not in backward Russia.

If you stay in Gdansk I can recommend going to the speedway if you get a chance. Never been there myself and the racing's supposed to be a bit dull compared to other Polish tracks. But if the atmosphere is like other Polish tracks it's a crack and a half. Can be a bit like football in the 70s over here.
