Would someone familiar with the Russian language please interpret the words in this FPGeeks "fans" smiley. I recognized РОССИЯ but not the rest. I can only speculate.

First rough translation PMed to me: "Ole, ole , ole! Russia, go ahead!"

So hacking has climbed down to that level?

I seem to remember this coming up before - the best I can do (bearing in mind it's been about 25 years since I lived in Russia) is:

OLÉ! OLÉ! OLÉ!
OLÉ!!!
RUSSIA!!!
FORWARD!!!

I think it's to do with hockey...
(and has been in the smiley list for as long as I can remember)
