It was all a bit... meh

Konyaspor 0 - 0 Genclerbirligi

At the beginning of the week I thought about a day trip to Konya. Jump on the fast train, say hello to the whirling dervishes and then head off to the stadium (sans alcohol) and then just on the fast train back home.

Two problems with that. The last train from Konya to Ankara leaves at 9:15pm, making that bit impossible. Then also their wasn't a single ticket available for the Ankara - Konya first leg. Seems like lots of people had already booked to make sure they were home for Sunday's election.

Not to worry... as having watched parts of the match at the Red Lion made me very pleased not to have made the trek.

Yep, a nil-nil draw. Some nice football but most of the time it was just "meh".
