Safi Port also sponsor Fenerbahce as well, they are the shirt sponsor for the side of their shirt. I just can't see Safi Port's CEO heading to the Botanic to get a round of Madri in with Acun on a Saturday afternoon.
Safi Port indeed Fenerbahce sponsor, owner is part of board this year, elected with Acun. So it is not a long-term commitment, this kind of sponsorships are always dangerous. I'd prefer a one big company who is loyal to club to be honest. Literally Safiport has no business in UK market, a sponsor who is trying to intrude to market would be more beneficial in long term. They are just here, because Acun asked for, but you never know what they asking in return. It is not multi-billion company. Billionaires list in Turkey is pretty thin.
Safiport was belong to state 9 years ago, it is actually called Derince Limanı. During intense privatization period of 3rd term of Erdogan, it is sold/rent to Safi Group (who are also founding member of Erdogan's party) for 39 years around 540 million USD. It was an era where Turkish lira was overvalued (1 GBP worth 4 TRY, now it above 40s), port probably worth 5 times less now. A good comparison would be Kalamis Limani (another port), which had privatization amount 600 millions in those years, now the offers were below 150 Millions USD made by Fenerbahce president's firm. Another example TV deal of Super League, which worth 500 millions in that year, now it is around 100Ms with all the USD inflation discarded. So that port won't worth more than 150 Millions USD, unless Turkish Lira become valuable again.
Yes they are still ladybirds in the UK. That’s not actually David Attenborough. It’ll be some Yank posting in his name using the American term. Collective noun for ladybirds is still a loveliness though.
''A loveliess'' must be my favourite collective noun - closely followed by the collective noun for a group of Wednesday fans, ''a thicket''
Right back should be done soon they say. Funnily enough it’s probably the position we need the least. If it’s Bree though at least he’s versatile
Vern my old shag, this “our kid says” is getting a touch boring now my friend. Anychance you could find another joke Regards The other posters
