Great. Thanks Pooch.
I was once in Istanbul working for a few days when Galatasary played, Fenerbache I think. The noise and excitement around the city was amazing. The Turks should really be European champions, their enthusiasm for football is overwhelming. Though they seemed friendly they were a little suspicious of an obvious foreigner like me, until they found out I liked football. A delight!
I suggested on the friendly thread we ought to play Darmstadt, our twin town, too. It couldn't be bad to form links with a newly-promoted Bundesliga club ........ easy loans and even transfers within the EEC are just one aspect of a link.
Get Turkey in the EEC and we might raid the Galatasary youth team?
