Champions League travel problems for Brits

As the Champions League gets closer and closer it’s apparent that this whole event has been hopelessly thought out. For a start I don’t believe for 1 minute that anyone thought two English football clubs would reach the final - that was their first mistake. Now - why in the world would they put the final in a country where if you don’t carry your passport with you at all times, you get arrested!
I know a lot of Chelsea fans and one of them bought 2 final tickets in the hope of selling one on. Instead of making a profit, he’s actually taken about a 70% loss. Why? The main reason would be the flights to Moscow - They cost a hell of a lot and it seems you have to either spend 5 days before or after the game to even get out of the country again.
I hope the game goes without a hitch and good luck to both teams!
