Vitriol: Kassai

Thumbs up...

To the enthusiastic young Ukrainian stadium volunteer who begged me for an English coin just because she desperately wanted to own something with a picture of the Queen on  it — another example of our monarch’s global appeal.

Thumbs down...

To the unscrupulous hotel racketeers of Donetsk. In a city with not enough hotel rooms to go around, those that suddenly appeared on the market were going for an unbelievable £450 per night. This — surprise, surprise — is not money that will go back into the Ukrainian economy.

Quote of the day

‘(Cristiano) Ronaldo has shown his countrymen that he deserves a statue in Lisbon.’

Argentina legend Diego Maradona offers an opinion on a subject that actually has absolutely nothing to do with him. No change there then.
