Ok, the title is my way of handling the fact that I have had my visit to the land of Efes back in June and that lots of people are either there or looking forward to visiting sometime soon!!! Lucky, lucky people.
Roll on Sunday 14th when the might Potters put Chelski to shame. Oh, and to beat Hajduk Split tomorrow!!!
Ah well, I carry on trying to convince myself that Kalkan does not matter any more for this year.
Enjoy
;)

One stokie to another, you can keep your football, give me Kalkan anytime, think of me there from 12th to 25th Sept, happy footie to you.

I am getting withdrawal syptoms from both!!after our relegation this season i have no great expectation of anything cheerful..our chinese owner is up in court in hong kong next week on money laundering charges...he's propped up his other businesses with money from brum..saddling us with the debt..and sold some of our best with more rats to jump ship.....replacing them with free transfers!!....but on the plus side crap manager judas mcleish has been sent over to Villa to get them relegated as well!!Darren Bent may as well buy a Tamagochi for company because he will be by himself up front >:D ...i have booked for kalkan next year...the first game/opening of the 2012 euros will be 8th june i like going then ....i fully expect my holiday to be longer than Englands although i will be wearing my shirt with pride....interesting that at Eagles shop by the moonlight during tha last campaign an England shirt hanging up outside.... Everytime England played the shirt got cheaper....good luck on your european travels...we too have a euro tie to come(as cup winners)...i just hope we still have a team :'( :'(

Chris, I agree but footy is here for a while, not 2 weeks. I get my 'fix' even when in Kalkan when it,s usual for England to be playing, (I used to watch them too). A couple of years ago, I was in Kalkan for the start of the season and one bar advertised Stoke V Chelski, we turn up and they show.........Man City v some body!!??
>:( >:(
BL, withdrawal symptoms is an understatement. I've watched the womens world cup, (was in Wolfsburg with work staying at the same hotel as the Swedish ladies team! only problem was they arrived as I checked out!!), under 19's, under 20's etc, sad or mad eh?? Just being listening to Talksport, a Brum fan came on and is convinced of a double relegation for you :o
At this time, I wish I was in Croatia but it was too expensive tbh.
Good luck mate, I think you may need it but relegation is a bit far.
;)
Ah well, off to watch a stream of the game on some dodgy internet site ;)
-
Up here in the frozen North, our season has already begun :) A win and a draw so far for the mighty Motherwell so here's hoping for a good season :)
-
...besides bags, footie is another passion of mine. I can never wait for the new season to start - particularly after a tournament-less close season :( :( I'll be here for the kick-off to the Premiership and have given my ticket away for the first home game against Sunderland. A lot of spending by King Kenny means big expectations by Fenway and the fans. Top Four has to be our target this year but pre-season hasn't been encouraging.
BL, I feel for you and all Birmingham City fans - no-one likes to see what's happening at your club happen to any side. I hope things pick up for you and a swift return to the Premiership is on the cards - but its a tough league to get out of but when your team is in disarray its doubly hard. Fingers crossed for you :-*

'Footie' is this children's name for what was once a decent game played by working class, true sportsmen in front of appreciative, non-violent supporters?
The only bright side to the current abominable situation in England is the fact that the start of the new season might be delayed, perhaps until January 2012! (Just wishful thinking).
Apparently it takes a minimum of 100 police to herd the great unwashed 'Footy' supporters into and out of the grounds where some of the highest paid t.....s in the history of 'sport' display their girlish tantrums.
Surely these wasted police forces could be better employed rounding up those violent looters currently controlling the streets of our major cities and giving them a good kicking.
Just a thought.
Yes I do enjoy rugby and cricket, and yes my Father did play for Luton Town FOOTBALL CLUB in pre-war years.
-
Edwina, I take it you have something against us 'great unwashed' footy supporters'. If you had not noticed, the very thing happened as you suggested, fixtures cancelled so our police can go and bang their shields trying to frighten the vermin scum currently running our streets. Good kicking, you are having a laugh!!
Anyway, I wont be washing until next May! ;) ;)
-
Must admit i took offence at being regarded as unwashed...but then Edwina called us "great unwashed" so i assume Edwina likes us :P
-
Well spotted BL, I never noticed that
It's good to be liked
;)
-
Cafe EV (open one month great food) just down the road from us has Pompey v Chelsea on Sunday....... :D :D not sure where he is getting his fixture info from ;D ;D
-
C'mon the Toon. Let's beat Arsenal 5-4 this season, instead of another 4-4 bore draw
;D
-
just announced....Saturdays Spurs v Everton ...off....
-
Right, here we go;
Footy top on ~ Check

Mate on the way to pick me up to go to the pub ~ Check
Wallet ~ Check
Wash and clean teeth ~ Errr!!

Enjoy Rip Roaring Potter but don't forget the deoderant ;D
My team the mighty Motherwell are still sitting proudly on top of the Scottish Premier league 4 weeks into our season :)
Not sure quite whats happened ??? ??? ???
-
i looked out for your results..nice to see someone else on top for a change!! ;)
down here it's business as usual.....Wenger moaning.....Barton acting like a prat.......Neil Warnock argueing with referees.....And Steve Bruce looking like hes just trumped!!......Thank god footys back!! :laugh:
-
Dear BL/itstime,
I'm off to Switzerland tomorrow to watch us take on Thun in the Europa league..........by coach!! Leave tomorrow, overnight travel & back straight after the game arriving home on Friday afternoon.
Should be a bit whiffy by then don't you know!!!! :-\ :o
;)
-
Good luck to you mr potter a good effort against Chelski......we play Nacional in Madeira(portugal) thurs with our team of freebies ::) ..however i'm not going as work comes first..no workie = no kalkan......anyone else fed up with constant fabregas saga?? don't like Arsenal much but i'm damned sure that if an English team had blatantly tapped up a player for 2 years fifa with stupid Blatter and sniff n shrug Platini would have created merry hell!! Barca good team, but you can't buy class and decorum. ...enjoy your swiss trip....buy a Toblerone and learn to yodel!!

Thanks BL, hope you go on OK in Madeira. I've got a couple of days off from work to go.
The 'Arse' are not one of the teams I endear to as a supporter of a 'rugby team'.
Regarding Le Swiss, I will try to dodge those chaps with the large horns, but If I do happen upon one, I will take Mr Whinger's view and say that I deed not zee eet!!
;)
-
I thought chaps were leather trousers!!..i'm sure you would look very fetching in a pair of bibbed leather shorts and a felt trilby with a large feather in it...of course i'm not stereotyping !!..enjoy your trip..... ;D
-
Just got back from the Pompey match good win over Reading (sorry Felicity) :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
-
Have a great time RRP ;D Have wonderful memories of my last European footie jaunt a few years ago in Nancy. Beautiful city, lovely people, culture in the medieval old city was amazing and even managed to sneak a shower in our hotel before the game :D
-
Blimey that was a rubbish hotel if you had to sneak into the showers!!! :o
-
Must be so nice for those of you whose teams actually get to leave mainland UK for their Euro adventures. OK, most Swiss and Madeirans probably speak better English than many Hearts fans, but I really wish we had drawn Trabzon. Fingers Crossed for all playing on Thursday and lets hope the Woolwich Wanderers join us in the Europa League next week!
-
;D BL
Eniste couldn't agree more with you about Hearts fans ;D not my favourites at all. Edinburgh on the other hand is a truly beautiful capital city and as this is Festival time it really is a spectacular place to visit. Off there tomorrow to soak up the atmosphere and see a couple of shows :)
-
I agree about Edinburgh (particularly the Athletic Arms a k a the Gravediggers) but the festival caused my lads hotel problems meaning they are staying at St Andrews!
-
Good to see that Tynecastle's hospitality knows no end!
