This week on Turkish Football Weekly:
- Week 19 results of the Turkish Super League are reviewed. Highlighted this week is the Fenerbahce-Trabzonspor match, Mersin Idman Yurdu ending their winless streak in an emphatic manner, and both Besiktas & Galatasaray winning despite playing at a sub-par standard. The week 20 schedule gets the rundown.
- With the Europa League back in action next week, Jeremy brings on a guest to preview the Liverpool-Besiktas tie. (We would’ve gotten someone to help preview the Trabzonspor-Napoli tie, but all the potential guests had other obligations to attend to.)
- The Turkish Cup round of 16 was played this past week. While much of the matches went mostly ho-hum, one particular match had some shenanigans occurring. The guys discuss who advanced and the match in question.
- News this week sees the injury bug hitting Besiktas, and suspensions.
- The major topic of debate this week concerns Trabzonspor chairman Ibrahim Haciosmanoglu, and his telephone call to referee Bulent Yildirim a few days before Yildirim was set to referee the Fenerbahce-Trabzonspor match. The guys debate the controversy involving Haciosmanoglu.
