From the BBC about the Champions League final:

'United supporter Jim *******, 43, from Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria, complained that Moscow authorities had not done enough to help travelling fans.

He added: "Nobody speaks English and there were no signs in English, on the underground or anywhere else." '

Good Lord. It's like they are in a foreign country or something.

Do they speak English in Barrow?

Well in all fairness, the Russians are hosting however many English fans.

It's not as if they're just turning up out of the blue and expecting them to provide free food and drinks is it?

''Do they speak English in Barrow?''
No they don't and they pronounce Barrow "Barrer".
