Alternative is to hold them in Greece... Imia/Kardak might be a good venue...

A team from Cyprus plays a team from Turkey in Greece?

Neutral venue? And I thought u were up to date with politics!

Take 3 of these a day... finish the course and you'll be cured.

The game will take place normally next Tuesday 26th of July. Tickets will be also availabe for the Turkish team supporters (1200 tickets) while huge measures are taken by the police to ensure the safety of the game. Many Turkish supporters have allready made applications through the Cyprus Embassy in Athens to come to see the game. UEFA officials will be also visiting the island to make sure that the necessary precautions are taken. Anorthosis president also encouraged Anorthosis funs to support their team in Constantinouple.

Yiannis, with all respect, why dont' you call it Istanbul not to provacate anyone?

Secondly, Trabzonspor is a team which is based in Trabzon(they call it Trabzionoid in greek I believe).

Last but not least, I dont' suggest any GC to go there, because this city is very fanatic and even the turkish teams do not take any fans there.

Why would that be provocative? I mean its not like im saying that Instabul its greek now. Im just stating the city's old name which i like more than the current name.
Anyhow i didnt mean any provocation.

I am sure that you didnt' mean any provacation(because of your posts). I just mean that it can cause provacation.

Why should we stop calling Constntinoupoli by its Greek name...if Greeks have been calling it that for around 1,500 years??? Why dont YOU call it Constantinoupoli, if that's the real name of the place you call Istanbul.

Next you'll be asking us to call Kyrenia 'Girne'.

No, my friend, I am not expecting you to call Kyrenia, Girne. My aim was not imposing something on you, it was just friendly advise.

Would you like me to call the greek cities with their turkish names? If you dont mind about this one, my advice was not aimed at you.

Even though it wasnt aimed at me...it just seems like more Turkish ways of trying to belittle and kill of Greek culture.
