    As much as the Saudi’s sportswashing is galling, the Turkish Football Federation have been idiots.

    Not sure. I’ve seen a video with fans wearing them (assume they were the same) but dunno if they’re wearing them all season or just for this game

    I feel sorry for the fans who travelled
    The ESL would be expensive for fans: time off work, flights, hotels, food and "refreshments"

    A friend of mine had been on a few days break in Belgium
    She turned up at the Brussels airport to return home and had to wait in passport control for an hour and missed her flight back to Leeds/Bradford
    She had to get a coach to Brussels, train to Calais, ferry to Dover
    She's going to stay overnight in Dover and her boyfriend will drive from Bradford to collect her and drive her home
    Can you believe there wasnt another flight to England today? Only Scotland. I still think it would have been better getting a train/plane from Edinburgh.

    Missing flights due to passport delays is utterly inexcusable - everyone must surely know the non-EU airport queues are long these days? Every email I get from airlines mentions it, I know that much.

    she was asking if she'd make the flight and they said 'yes'
    then they took her to the front of the queue
    then they werent allowed on the plane!

    I remember getting a flight to Bratislava for the Europa Leaghe
    I paid extra for priority boarding
    I still felt guilty walking past the queue!

    it seems like most people
    look at the Spanish FA President's kissing of that player
    she went on about how offended she was then video emerged of her laughing about it
    nobody came out of it well

    There's more and more within Turkey who won't be impressed too, but that's politics and religion.
