i have been following the superleague quite closely this season with help from an english speaking website. The editor of the site has recently made a comment about the presence of Istanbul B B , Haceptte and Ankaragucu in the league.He seemd to doubt if they should be there. Could this be due to lack of support. I did watch Istanbul v Besitkas recenly and there were very few supporters.

 

Do Istanbul BB play at the new stadium?

 

I emailed the editor of the site but no reply.

yes it is due to lack of suport. Istanbul B.B is team of Istanbul Municipality and they were found in 90s. Naturally nobody supports them because there are already 3 big teams in Istanbul. ( of course Fenerbahce is the biggest )  they play matches at Olimpic Stadium since they dont have a stadium. Hacettepe is a university in Ankara but they dont have supporters too. Ankaragücü is one of the oldest teams of turkey and their supporters are very very good. you probably means Ankaraspor. Ankaraspor was found by Ankara Municipality in 90s as Istanbul B.B. and they have no support for the same raesons.

thnaks for reply - yes i probably meant ankaraspor.

 

so did these teams get promoted to the superleague because they won the first division or were they allowed to play in that league.

 

how do they survive with so few fans?

Yes they got promoted to the superleague because they won the first division. how they survive with so few fans? ermmmmmm It is because they are financally supported by municipalities.

Thank goodness someone replied at last!  It seems the biggest whingers that "Turkish Class does nothing but criticise Turkey", are the last to help out when people have a genuine interest or question.

 

Perhaps they secretly enjoy all the arguing...
