Mikhail Markosov is supported by Russian football club fans

The fans of Russian First Division football team, FC Ufa of the Republic of Bashkortostan (Bashkiria), Russia, have expressed their support to the club’s Armenian striker Mikhail Markosov, whom a traffic police officer had fined for driving with dirty license plates, Sovsport reports. 

“It is not a great secret that some Bashkiria officials and their underlings decided that [ice] hockey is above everything. [But] don’t be sad that you dealt with such idiot! Play such that you may find yourself in the Premier League. In that case, he would not have fined [you], but rather asked [for your] autograph,” the FC Ufa fans wrote to Markosov on social network.
