It was a fantastic effort given.. long distance, expense, short timescales, Thursday night.....
I Would have loved to have been there and experienced Istanbul and the game.
Well done to all those that travelled.

Apart from the kids. One woman was voiciferous in her displeasure that two young kids had managed to get tickets. She couldn't believe that they had enough points to get over there. Despite the fact it went to season ticket and general sale...

Great effort...gutted I could't go and now looking forward to a European night at Turf Moor next Thursday. Whenever Turkish sides play in this country my impression is that are massively well-supported. However this support , I've always assumed, comes largely from the Turkish community in Britain and usually it's one of the big-name long-established clubs like Besiktas, Galatasaray etc. I'd like to think the away end will be packed with noisy Turks next week but I doubt the ex-pats will get behind this lot who appear to be a wealthier, more successful Turkish MK Dons.

Obviously not a true claret, eh!

We are one big family,as many on here say, with the odd black sheep!

Well done for identifying yourself...clown!!!

It's called dedication, sounds like you didn't realise the word existed, these fans did this in less than a week to plan, travel, expense, location, work issues, get real, these people fully deserve a round of applause.

I don't normally comment on these type of threads but given the short notice involved I think that was an excellent turn out by the Clarets. Well done to them all. I have just shown the above picture to a proper Man Utd fan and he was well impressed. Do we have an official figure of how many travelled.
