Re: For those travelling to Istanbul
On Google Maps there looks to be a Metro station quite close to the ground called MetroKent
Maybe thedmcistanbul can confirm?
What time does the Metro line close?

Re: For those travelling to Istanbul
yes there is a metro station near the stadium.
as far as i know the last metro is at 00:00 but you need to transfer 2 more times to come to the city. i would not trust the metro for return, you may end up in the middle of nowhere in the city as you need to change the line, by that time, the next line will not be operating. hope it makes sense

Not a all. I was just wondering about the last time he missed one. Ive never spoken to him or met the man but he seems like he’s here there and everywhere supporting the boys. Whether thats to first team or youths.Spike wrote:couldn't get out of bed more like lol
doesn't matter how long it is since Tony missed a game -makes it seem like missing this is a crime. Tony will always be up there in terms of amount of games visited in his lifetime
Sorry you aren't with us tomorrow Tony

A bump for this.thedmcistanbul wrote:Hi all,
As far as I understand everybody makes their own way to the stadium tomorrow unless club organizes transfer to the ground.
I am planning to organize a shuttle bus from stadium back to airport and then city center, old town and Taksim. This will be £ 10 per person or 70 Turkish lira.
This will be a minibus with 15 persons capacity. There will be a person outside stadium around the away end, holding a signboard ''Airport shuttle Burnley Fans'' if anyone wants to join feel free to whatsapp on 0090 533 708 51 97
Safe travel & enjoy your time in Istanbul...

Re: For those travelling to Istanbul
Wouldn’t be so sure Sinan. If the club transport isn’t going to Taksim, a few of us may still be interested. Check the other thread.
