I like football, sometimes. Tranmere fan, calcio fan, and occasional globetrotter. Most of my content is at the other place.

I could do it door-to-door quicker than yesterday 😆

Because I had to factor in extra time, I left my house 5.30am yesterday and got home after midnight.

I could go to Mallorca and still make last orders 😄

Nobody can beat Bayern in the Bundesliga because nobody wants to beat Bayern in the Bundesliga 🤷‍♂️
Tranmere have two free Saturdays in Nov/Dec.

If you're that way inclined, you could fly Stansted to Palma de Mallorca for £30 return, watch Mallorca vs Osasuna, and be back in Blighty a mere 13 hours after departing.

From the Bosphorus to Bosnia to Birkenhead.

The only thing that keeps me interested in Tranmere is the FA Cup, and the likelihood is that it could be short-lived.

We did beat Wycombe in 2019 when they were the highest-ranked club in the first round.

It's the hope that kills you.
Bundesliga on the BBC iPlayer every Friday night.

Augsburg vs Dortmund tonight.

It's not a very pleasant experience, but a must-do when in Mostar: The Genocide Museum, and Sniper Alley.

The city still bears the scars of a war that happened in our lifetime in mainland Europe.
Mostar, absolutely stunning.
And the answer is....

Where to next.....

These pictures don't do any justice to how fucking mental and intense Turkish football is.

Absolutely bonkers
There are never enough people at Basaksehir to cause a riot. 🤣
Turkish football, completed it 😎

Besiktas
Fenerbahçe
Galatasaray (new)
Galatasaray (old)
Galatasaray in the Champions League?

Don't mind if I do...
UEFA Yourh League

Galatasaray vs Bodø Glimt

Even though it's free entry, they still make it hard work to get in, especially as they thought I was Norwegian. 😆

They can't comprehend a neutral coming.

Anyway, VIP seats 😎
Hard to believe there's a bigger derby in Istanbul than Eyupspor vs Kasimpasa.

Although the game has been switched to Kasimpasa's stadium, it's free entry for Eyupspor fans, but not Kasimpasa.

Kasimpasa is the club of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.
Fenerbahçe 2 Fatih Karagümrük 1

Goals from those players you thought "so that's where they are"

Talisca, who's whored himself in China and Saudi in recent years, and Marco Asensio with the home goals.

The visitors caused plenty of problems 2nd half despite being bottom.
Amsterdam isn't really near Sevilla. 😀

Shame Betis are at La Cartuja this season as the Villamarin is on my to do list.
And I've been let down for a ticket for Thursday's Europa League game, Fenerbahçe vs Stuttgart.

All is not lost. I've managed to buy a ticket for tomorrow's game against Fatih Karagümrük.

Though that means jibbing the Erokspor game I'd planned to go to, and have a ticket for.

🇹🇷 ⚽️
Besiktas 1 Gençlerbirliği 2

Besiktas threw that away with their substitutions.

Cengiz Ünder the standout player
😄 Aye, very similar to Vaduz. Probably the most intimidating place I've been 😄
I went to the Old Ali Sami Yen. The Welcome to Hell stadium, back in 2010.

Absolutely loved it, and the city. I love chaotic big cities.
Bodo Glimt. Tickets are an absolute ballache here. Galatasaray more so.
So bought direct from Bodø.

Waiting on a Fenerbahçe v Stuttgart ticket on Thursday.

Didn't get into a 2nd Div game last night despite less than 1000 there.
Power banks are a strict no-no, as are most things. Had coins and keys taken off me when I saw Fenerbahçe vs Galatasaray in basketball 15 years ago.

Going in the away end on Wednesday at Galatasaray, so I expect the full works from the Polis
