dark_horse Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 How many games are Turkey suspended from playing in there home soil? Was it 6? Or was it 4? :unsure: The reason I ask is because Turkey plays at "home" to Norway on March 28th. The following day they play the remaining 3 "home" matches after March 28th. Greece plays against Turkey (again) on October 17th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
js1000 Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 i think the ban was reduced to 3 games on appeal. greece will have to face the warm and friendly atmosphere of the welcoming turkish fans. also emre's ban finishes in time for him to face greece.

AEKGATE21 Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Dont worry i am sure the greek fans will be just as welcoming when the turkish team plays in athens ;) WELCOME TO HELL the date when the turks will be playing us is on march 24th one day before we celebrate our independance from the ottoman empire THIS IS PERFECT TIMING. :LOL: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you js1000, I should have know FIFA is up to there dirty tricks. Turkey should never get an appeal for there "barbaric" behavior, it should be all 6 matches banned in TURKEY! :angry: Don't worry, GREECE will take care of them! hehehehehe :gr: :gr: :gr: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark_horse Posted January 15, 2007 Author Share Posted January 15, 2007 I'm wondering how the Norwegians would fair by playing in Germany? B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
js1000 Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 its unfair on the teams in the group that have to play in turkey. the ban should be for all 6 games or for no games at all. a definate advantage for norway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evergreen Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Sorry but I disagree. I think a 6 game home ban was too much in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUDE Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Sorry but I disagree. I think a 6 game home ban was too much in the first place. File there were talks of banning them outright from the tournament. 6 match ban was lenient! They do this consistently it wasnt a one off incident.

jarvis1981 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 The part I most disturbing (and I believe my facts are correct but please correct me if it's not the case) is that it wasn't just the team and it's coaches that acted in an uncivilized manner but it was the government (i.e. Official authorities) that started the whole thing with Switzerland by detaining them at the airport for several hours. What type of message does that tell the rest of the world and I don't mean just the sports world. Turkish authorities should be doing the opposite and assisting visiting national teams and then put out bulletins to fans and the team officials that they want their participants to represent the country in a class manner. Isn't that the whole idea of international sports to begin with. To the best of my knowledge Greece officials treat visting teams well and sure fans can scream and yell all they want but it's up to the host nation to guarantee safe passage. Why would any country try to promote the opposite? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark_horse Posted February 10, 2007 Author Share Posted February 10, 2007 Here's my sign from what it will say during the match: "H ELLADA DEN PETHENI, MARTIOS 25, 1821!" Sounds pretty catchy don't you think? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark_horse Posted February 10, 2007 Author Share Posted February 10, 2007 It's offical, Turkey will be playing in CommericalBank Arena in Frankfurt against Norway. The other 3 home matches WILL be played in Turkey. I was hoping they FIFA would disallow Turkish fans to come to the stadium & play behind closed doors. :hypocrite: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just remember the date and tell the hooligans who talk crap all over the place about 1453 that 1821 was after 1453 and that's all that really counts.
