 But more than 1,000 fans will still back Blues in UkraineEVERTON are ready to pull the plug on their official supporters trip to Ukraine for next week's Europa League clash with Dinamo Kiev.But that does NOT mean the Blues will be without fans backing for the Round of 16 second leg. More than 1,000 supporters are expected to make the 3,000 mile round trip to Kiev. But the delay while UEFA deliberated over the punishment to hand out to the Ukrainians for the crowd trouble which marred their victory over Guingamp meant that most fans had already made independent travel plans by the time Everton could finalise arrangements for an official trip. The draw round of 32 draw handed Everton a tie with Kiev on February 27, but it wasn't until March 4 that UEFA ordered the Ukrainians to partially close their stadium for the visit of Roberto Martinez's side on March 19 after fans invaded the pitch and clashed with security staff against Guingamp. Dynamo were also fined 70,000 Euros after the crowd trouble caused the game to be briefly halted. Everton have received an allocation of 1,500 tickets for the second leg of the Round of 32 tie. The first leg is on Thursday at Goodison Park. By David Prentice / Echo |
