Ahead of the Galatasaray away game, both LFC and RAOTL/ILSA members
have offered some advice:
LFC - The fantastic reputation of our fans was recognised
by UEFA last year, and if you're going to Istanbul we want your journey
to be as safe and enjoyable as European trips should be. So please
don't travel without a ticket as you won't get in and make sure you
look after it as duplicates cannot be issued.
Don't forget you need a visa to enter Turkey - you can buy them on
arrival for £10. There'll be a large police presence - a normal
procedure - and it's best to get there an hour before kick off. You'll
be kept in for 45 minutes at the end. Entrance to the ground is via
gate 26.
Seats are uncovered so take warm, waterproof clothing. Fans will
be searched and anyone judged to have drunk excessively won't be admitted
to the stadium. Alcohol, coins, lighters, cans, bottles, bags and
flagpoles will be confiscated, though banners are welcome.
If you're heading for nearby Taksim Square, the adjoining alleyways
are best avoided. Last but not least, we know you'll respect our hosts
and their national flag. Remember, we're renowned for being the best
fans around.
RAOTL/ILSA - If you do go to Taksim (and it's the drop off
point for Lonsdales because it's the biggest square & there's
room for the coaches), then take a taxi straight to the old city -
known as "Sultan Ahmet" which is their name for St. Sophia's.
Don't miss a quick visit to Topkapi Palace, the Blue Mosque &
St. Sophia's itself. Do all that in an hour and a half and then there's
good bars & restaurants up there, get stuck into the Efes (the
local brew).
If yo get a chance eat in one of the many fish restaurants along
the Bosphorus - they're among the best in the world.Best to avoid
raki before the match - you won't remember the match.
It's the small "pasaj" alleyways NEAR Taksim that are considered
"dangerous" because they impossible to police, and just
because that's where the stuff went off 2 years ago.
But really Taksim area is just a non-entity and not one for tourists
at any time of the year.

The RAOTL - Toffeeweb match ended up as a 3-3 draw. Once again a three
figure sum was raised for the HJC. Well done to all concerned.
21/2/02
The biannual fixture between the fine Liverpool fanzine Red All Over
the Land and Toffeeweb, purveyor of all things Evertonian, takes place
this Saturday at LFC's Academy prior to the afternoon's main course
at Anfield. Kick off for the mini-mini-derby is at 10-30am and all the
money raised will go to the Hillsborough Justice Campaign. Get down
there for 10am and support the lads and lasses for a worthy cause.
19/2/02
Positive media feedback on the contacts with Galatasaray fans in attempting

were mentioned on Radio5 on the weekend and a report also appeared in
the World Football programme hosted by Alan Green on the World Service
