kick it off 1,927 Posted May 24, 2011 So my other team, Fenerbahce, produced a stunning second half of the season, claiming 49 out of the last 51 points to claim the 18th (and record) Superlig title.The players secured this feat away from home on Sunday night, and on Monday evening celebrated with a 5 and a half hour open top bus parade!! (Istanbul streets are not easy to get around!!) followed by 55,000 fans in the Sukru Sarioglu stadium for their version of a civic reception.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YBIpnKGueI - Players introduced one by one on a pretty spectacular floor!!Fireworks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmvBYe9D9SYThe whole thing just looks spectacular, would love us to be able to put on an event of this kind of magnitude one day!

kick it off 1,927 Posted May 24, 2011 Yeah and no one reads it.They are also known as the Canaries, and we have both held similar events in the past few weeks, obviously with theirs being flashier and bigger scale. Thanks for your input PC Grey, but I will continue to celebrate the achievements of both my Canaries, and just thought I would put this up to show how the other Canaries are celebrating.

Alex Moss 2,165 Posted May 24, 2011 Gutted. I thought this was going to be a post live from outside Carrow Rd where MWJ has got Smudger in a headlock, and a furious Delia Smith is repeatedly raining in with flying headbutts.... Large crowd gathering now...Not sure about 2nd teams myself, I only have the one apart from Arsenal Chelsea and Man U. Couldn''t imagine following another side, though I can understand perhaps ''liking'' another team from abroad, but supporting, no way. Can only be NCFC for me, but each to their own I suppose :).

Brighton Yellow 0 Posted May 24, 2011 Thanks for sharing that on here. Know a resident of Brussels who sent a photo of the Fenerbace flag hanging between buildings there on Sunday, it must have been at least 4 storeys tall!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kick it off 1,927 Posted May 24, 2011 Alex - I get your point re: 2nd teams, however, I lived in Turkey for a while, and you HAVE to choose your allegiance over there!! I picked Fener due to the Canaries nickname and their tradition of being a community based club, rather than the bourgeouis Galatasaray.If it came to a Norwich vs Fener match it wouldn''t even be a contest, Norwich will always be my first choice, but I watch every Fener game online and I will be making my way to Kadikoy for a game or two when Im over in Turkey in September. It is a bit weird having two teams, but most enjoyable, especially in seasons like this when I can celebrate Premier league for our boys, and a title and Champions League for the Turkish lads.It''ll never be the same - I went far more mental when Simeon nodded in at Portsmouth than I did when Yobo scored our 4th on Sunday but it was great all the same :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yobocop 1,083 Posted May 24, 2011 I am getting highly frustrated by these self-important arrogant pr1cks who think its ok to tell other posters what to post and where.This is by far and away the most popular board on this forum, and unless you have no life you generally don''t touch the other boards on this forum...so what does that make the people who start creating about it?What those who feel they need to make comments don''t realise is that by making a post ''well what does that have to do with NCFC'' are in fact not posting about NCFC (if that makes sense) so they are the breakers of their own rules! As far as I''m aware there is only really one moderator on this board and that is SDP...anyone else who thinks they have the power to tell people what they can or cannot post can go and jump off the nearest cliff as far as I''m concerned.

Alex Moss 2,165 Posted May 24, 2011 Fair play KIO. I can see why you''ve got a connection with them. I wonder if any of their fans keep an eye on Carrow Rd?. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kick it off 1,927 Posted May 24, 2011 At least one of them Alex!!! I got one one of my Turkish mates overly keen on Norwich, he''s really excited about being able to watch every game next season!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sh007 0 Posted May 24, 2011 Cheers, KIO, enjoyed that! Especially while we''re still in celebratory mood, and with a team with some connection too.And as for the forum police, I agree with Give Peas a Chance ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
