You never know, the game against Yugoslavia went ahead in Belgrade in the Euro 2000 qualifiers while they were being bombed out of it by Nato.

Then again the game against Georgia was moved to Mainz for less.

Why wouldn’t the game going ahead? Even if things escalated can’t see it not going ahead in a neutral venue

Because if theres a full blown countrywide conflict, then flying a load of lads out of Kiev to kick a ball around in another city somewhere may not be too advisable, not too high up the list of priorities for the Ukranians.

A neutral venue is being looked at here. As mentioned, potentially another Mainz situation.

FAI person.

Like even if this game is played in the Ukraine, it will most likely be restricted. I see videos there yesterday of tanks being brought into the Ukraine to help defend the border. There's no hope of a warzone hosting a game with fans.

Poland wouldn't surprise me as a potential venue. Somewhere like Krakow perhaps

Poland you would think would be the most likely option. Stadium in Krakow isn't up to much and Poland play in Warsaw the night before so Wroclaw could be an option. I'd have no issue with that as it's a decent city.
time is the stuff that life is made of, don't waste it.

very hard to say. can be anywhere around 4 hours to get through the border. 

this is a handy website to monitor border crossings. it doesn't seem to have any data atm for the poland / ukraine border ...although look what brexit has done to dover... currently a 10km tailback Dead

The rebels then, I just remember the place being a warzone  in the papers and media with the game in big doubt leading up to it. If I recall it wasn't shown on the tele either.

All our away games during the campaign were shown live on TV3. The one in Belgrade was their first ever live game.
