belfastsaintee Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 i was hoping the games would be the other way round as im in london 27-29 july for olympics and the distance of this away leg may be problematic. may have to just be the home leg and then pray we progress to next round!

"They play their matches at the Eskişehir Atatürk Stadium, which has a capacity of 13,520. They are spending 80 million euros on a new 33,500 capacity stadium, a move which has been criticised by many of the supporters who see their current home as "the holy ground". Their supporters, led by the BandoESES and KoreoESES fan groups, have built a reputation in Turkey for having a passionate, dominant and obsessive atmosphere at games, and have been called the "phenomenon"of Turkey."

ex-montrosesaintee Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 There seems to be no confirmation of whether it is home or away first. The draw says subject to venue reversal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewhite4 Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 So Saints draw is subject to change of date, fixture reversals and subject to a court of arbitration ruling on Besiktas? Then even if we get the original team we were drawn against, it may be moved to Istanbul or Ankara? Add in UEFA's streaming of the draw being taken down with no explanation and their media centre seemingly clueless that a draw was even taking place today. Very successful, well done UEFA.
