the incident you mention has nothing to do with Arsenal playing in Istanbul. The fans killed that we all remember were 2 Leeds fans.
speters is qute clear about the violence he says he saw and witnessed.
I think he is lying.
I can't believe I'm Googling football .... I've probably got this wrong too, can't make out which is home or away ... but I've found this which may fit the puzzle he has set usBBCNews wrote:Wednesday, 17 May, 2000, 23:01 GMT 00:01 UK
Penalty heartbreak for Arsenal
Arsenal 0-0 Galatasaray
Galatasaray win 4-1 on penalties
Galatasaray have won the Uefa Cup final after beating Arsenal on penalties in a pulsating game of missed chances.
It is the first time a Turkish side has won the trophy, prompting wild celebrations on the streets of Istanbul.
Arsenal's Davor Suker and Patrick Vieira missed their penalties before former Tottenham defender Gheorghe Popescu hit the trophy winner for Galatasaray.
Galatasaray have now won an impressive treble this season, after claiming their 14th Turkish league title, as well as the Turkish Cup.
The match went ahead despite three fans being stabbed in clashes in the capital's centre before the game.
I think between the stabbing to death of two England fans in Istanbul in my first cut-and-paste, and this game of Arsenal's ... it may just be what he was trying to convey
You go round making statements and then googleing to prove them. What level of debate is this. Standards are dropping.
