I think we should be told
Has anyone else noticed the similarity between Douglas Reynholm, son of a meglomaniac Denholm Reynhom who according to Wikipedia was "always ready with new and often ridiculous initiatives", and Ahmet Gokcek, former Ankaragucu chairman and son of I. Melih Gocek whose new and often brilliant initiatives have included recreating Hollywood in Ankara, a Disneyland for the city and the really radical idea that a metro system would be good for the capital. Are they in anyway related? I think we should be told.

Lots of Ankaragucu news today:
ReplyDeleteas well as Aydin throwing in the towel (do we believe him?), MP Aylin Nazliaka (CHP, Ankara) launched an appeal for donations and said she was giving a month's salary to the club. She said 200,000 liras needed to keep it afloat to end of the season.

Apparently I'm the lone kanka in Maraton, but we're being well outplayed by Gençler... Lots of snowballs being thrown at the pitch. Cider Kanka John
ReplyDeleteHalf-time update: Gençler 1-0 up, fantastic throw of a snowball just caught a bending-over policeman on the back of the head, prompting the loudest cheer we've had from Gecekondu so far...
DeleteThanks for keeping those of us who couldn't make it today filled in, Cider. I guess if you can't see Gucu score a goal, seeing a policeman get beaned in the back of the head with a snowball is the next best thing.
ReplyDeleteSecond half précis (I'm sure the Gençler boys will have a much fuller report from their side)... Gecekondu stripped off in the freezing weather and waved their shirts around at the start of the second half - later chants focussed on how Gökçek and Cemal Aydın resemble vaginas, and worse. After about the 70th minute we had 3 or 4 decent runs, but Gençler were a different class and made it look simple to take the ball off us. The slide continues.
DeleteAnd eventually the police got so fed up of being hit by snowballs they set up a security camera...
