I believe that we have an angel as 12th player and she gets in to the play at the last minute Posts: 2591 | From: **Ex Oriente Lux** | Registered: Jan 2007

Shahrazat, mabrook! Can you please tell me how this succes is celebrated in Turkey? Let me tell you how they do that here: I was in the towncenter at the moment the match was finished. At that sudden moment I have to hurry to get in my car because I know the center will get blocked with Turkish young men again. They all jump into their cars 2, loudly horking, big trukish flags on it, and they all hurry to the big squares where they unite and are blocking the traffic. In the meanwhile they are making noise and start to fight with everybody who is not Turkish and accidentally is on the wrong place, at the wrong time. So, there are even people killed... It hasn't has to do anything with celebrating, they are not celebrating but provoking and intimidating, they are agressive, and they don't have an eye for rules and regulations, it's bad. That's what I meant earlier in this topic.Even the Egyptians are hoping that Turkey will be out of the tournament, because all what they get is trouble instead of celebrations... A Turkish security guard asked me why I left in such a hurry, and I explained. You're right, he said, but aren't for instance, Germans and English doing the same???? Does that make it less bad????

I hate to say that but the ones in your country are not the type I like.... Here it was like a real carnaval. And unfortunately those kind of people do the same thing in Turkey as well.
Turkish people may exaggarate the celebration but generally they dont fight with other people.
We have enemies in our own nation. Too many PKK or Al Qaida fans living in your country with Turkish passport. And they never miss a chance which may hurt Turkey. So some of those people may be the ones I mentioned...

Wow, extremists? I think it's just youth with not enough manners...I fear that it also will go wrong in germany, because then there are two opponents in one country...

Police said that more than a dozen fans were hurt in the city center but that they were still tallying the precise number following attacks by Turkish fans on Croatian supporters in the final minutes of Friday's game.
Although some unruly Croatian fans were seen shouting Nazi slogans and giving „Heil Hitler“ salutes, police spokesman Christian Stella said the violence „was not hooliganism, but more of a beer brawl.“

Please know that ?????, your such comments little bit hurts...really....
I wish you could also discuss the manner of Italian referree on the match. His showing 3 redicilious yellow cards in order to not make those good players play with Germany, if we pass to semi-final. You know his mother is Croatian, did you realize that how he hold the Croatian players with a very sorry face? Did you notice that how he was against us? I m not the one who talks about this as a Turk. Word press is infrming this as well.
A few crazy boys' manners' nothing when comparing the referee's trying to change the fate of a NATION.
We have to discuss those things ?????.

To use the word "fans" is so far of the mark. Reality is they are thugs who are out to cause trouble. England had a big problem with this, which ruined things for the genuine fans, because they all got tarred with the same brush. Hopefully the trouble is going to be an isolated incident and that the only winner is a successful and enjoyable tournament.

I didn't see the match, Shahrazat, I had a company-dinner, and that ended at almost the same time as the match did. But I told you this wasn't the first time this week, so how bad the referee might have been, I don't think this can be used as an excuse to misbehave (again). I understand you don't like to talk about this,just like the security-guard said: The Germans do it too, but I think the Turkish people themselves should bring out their negative opinion about the behaviour of compatriots, instead as remaining silence. You know, every football-nation has their own hooligans. In Holland it isn't as bad as it was, because of all the attention they got. If somebody misbehaves, their fellow-supporters are correcting them right now. At the moment there are more then 100.000 Dutch supporters in Basel, and in a very pleasant atmosphere. At 18:00 they united to be silent for 1 minute because of the death of one of the players just born daughter. 100.000 supporters are silent for 1 minute en masse, that is impressive. You can impress in a positive and in a negative way, and it should be nice that everybody would understand this. You're saying that my comments are hurting you, maybe, when there should be enough Turkish people who feel offended by something like this, they could spread it out, so that the bad ones FEEL what they are doing to the repuattion of a nation...

Well, Shahrazat...the one who laughs at last... Turkey is the one who is playing that half final, and Holland wasn't half what they were before. I promise you that I will support Turkey in the next game, and I will keep my mouth shut... 150.000 dissappointed supporters in a town, without a place to stay, have to spend their nights outside. I hope this won't bring problems...
