Teamwork Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 I just booked the official trip, it's a bugger having to come up from London to get on it but at least I'm sure now to end up at the place the game is being played rather than stuck in Istanbul or Ankara... that was exactly my line of thinking, more expensive but less grief.

SaintGraeme39 Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 (edited) Was tempted to book up with the saints official package even if it was pricy , just for convience sake but coming home straight after the game is a nuisance, a couple of lagers and a few shots of raki are needed with the eSeS fans after me thinks! Missed monaco because i was only at primary school, so this is my first european tour, hope as many saintees as possible can make this and make it as memorable as monaco!

dave mc Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 knew a heard it before, enjoying the band , at least its better than the shite we used to get at ibrox! really hope we play eses, fans on this forum have been great help and it should be a great few days in turkey. thats me on the turkey shuttle. I really hope now that it is ESES that we play - their fans coming on here have been great and the club look to be a bit of a yo-yo club like saints.

SoS Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 Greetings from ESKISEHIR; First of all, I'm very happy to see that the both side's fans are getting really well online. Hopefully, it will be seen as a friendly match not only in the pitch but also out. For the Perths who are coming to Turkiye, I want to tell them welcome and would like to host you in a best way. Also some of us want to exchange fan scarves of the teams (better to bring some more with you ) We are waiting to welcome you in a best way here. Cheers.

We can arrange a meeting pre or post-match and can have a chit-chat after which we can make our exchanges. A facebook event would be okay i guess.

nips Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 For the people who are going into to Istanbul, what area are you staying in? Staying in the Nobel Hotel which is about a mile from the Grand Bazaar and half a mile from the Blue Mosque. Plenty hotels in that area at a decent price.

Jamie_Beatson Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 I'm wondering of its wort starting a separate thread to see who would be interested in an Istanbul to Eskesehir Saints supporters' bus... If we could get 40 committed it would certainly be worthwhile. Assuming that's where we play of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandaza-Claus Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 Both TMG packages have now 'SOLD OUT' according to the website. Nightmare! I couldn't book today as I don't have access to my passport until tomorrow. It says: Additional packages may become available for sale next week I bloody hope so! Anyone else in the same boat as me? Slow off the mark... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ancientsaint Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 Failing that one of Ghosties many insides sources have exclusively revealed that a bus will be leaving from the The Bee Bar this Friday morning. All being well, it should have you there for the 19th! Can confirm bus left yesterday morning......We are now approaching Broxden Roundabout.
