In name I suppose it is, but I think it has an extremely large Muslim population. There were threats on the team and fans going to turkey after the Israeli army killed some Turkish people, maybe that was the reason. I don't really understand it myself. We should have no real problems over there, besiktas is apparently a secular club and so is the half of Istanbul which we'll be in. That's as long as no stoke fans try to be billy big bollocks.There's always going to be some, but hopefully getting beaten up by some mad Turks will deter them from being cunts again in the future. Well as long as they be cunty as far away from the rest of us that's fine. Their fans looks class, but I always cringe at the orchestrated crowds, even though that's just how it's done there.

Hopefully they're just like Hajduk Split, seeming to care more about how awesome their fans our than actually realizing the work is done on the pitch.

Team wise; Sorro Shotton Huth Upson Wilson Pennant Palacios Whitehead Ethers Jerome Crouch Wilko (thigh strain) and Wilson and Ethers are doubts for tomorrow.. If so it'll be Ryan in with Huth at Left back maybe..? Who'd replace Ethers then? Would it be Jerome or Walters..? None of the changes look appealing do they..?

Erm... Fuck, is all I can say to that news... Huth Rb and Shotton Lb? We'll probably play Delap out wide if Ethers is out.

I hate to break up a serious conversation about team selection and all that but I'm ridiculously, pant-wettingly excited about tomorrow. We're into the real stuff at the Brit. Bring em on!
Ahem - can Palacios play wide?

Some Besiktas fan on Facebook has these as the line ups:
STOKE CITY: Sorensen, Huth, Shawcross, Upson, Wilkinson, Whelan, Diao, Pennant, Palacios, Jerome, Crouch
BEŞİKTAŞ: Rüştü, Ekrem, Sivok, İsmail, Egemen, Necip, Aurelio, Ernst, Simao, Quaresma, Edu
If Wilkos recovered from his thigh strain i don't think this'll be far off..
Edit: just read Salif is out with a fractured cheekbone so..........
