GITG | TURKEY WATCH!

If you didn’t already think Turkish football was hilarious and mental and terrifying enough: 
Galatasary 2-1 Trabzonspor: Dursun sees red both metaphorically and literally as his side dwindles to 7 men 
Everyone’s favourite collection of consonants Trabzonspor made the headlines again as they went down to 7 men after player who showed red card to referee was himself sent off.  

Trabzonspor player Salih Dursun was sent off after taking the red card from referee Deniz Bitnel’s hand and brandishing it at him moments after his team mate had been sent off.

The referee made his way to an early bath, stripping off and cursing his performance before saying, “WAAAAIIITT A MINUITE!!!” and ran back on to the pitch to send Dursun off for being a cheeky cunt. 

Trabzonspor were left with just seven players, yet it wasn’t until a last minute Selcuk Inan penalty that Galatasaray were able to clinch a bizarre 2-1 victory.

This isn’t the first time this silly bugger of a club has been involved in such farcical antics.  

In October 2015 Trabzonspor president was banned for 280 days and fined 150,000 Turkish Lira after trying to keep referees locked in stadium overnight.   

Mentally ill: Ibrahim Hacıosmanoğlu
Trabzonspor club president demanded all four match officials were detained in the dressing room after they failed to award his team a penalty.

The actual president of Turkey had to personally intervene to ensure the release of the football referee who had been taken hostage by the Turkish club.

The club's president, Ibrahim Hacıosmanoğlu, ordered his team to lock the referee and his fellow match officials in the team's dressing room after the team were denied a penalty in their 2-2 draw with Gaziantepspor.

The mad bastard explained: “I told stadium security not to let the referees leave until the morning, until I arrived, but a very important person called me and asked me not to cause embarrassment in Turkey and around the world.”

Bit late for that mate.
