Comiserations to Gala
Anthony:
In our moment of glory ( ;D ) I would just like to offer my comiserations to the Gala fans who have been our guests over the last few months.
When the draw was made for the 2nd group stages I don't think I was alone in being concerned about what would happen in the matches between us. However, due in part to the efforts of Bob Kurac and others, and the efforts of many Gala groups, including Ultr'Aslan, links were made and friendships established.
In particular, I don't recall seeing any Barca or Roma fans on this forum! And while members of the Barca and, to a lesser extent, Roma clubs were disrepectful towards us I don't remember anything but courtesy from Galatasaray.
So comiserations Galatasaray, thankyou for your kind words of support over the last few months and good luck for the rest of the season!
You'll Never Walk Alone!!! :wave:

I was hoping Gala would get thru and we could as there fans have often posted 'walk thru hand in hand'.
It is amazing what a bit of communication does to influence your vie w of stereotypes. Well done to the LFC fans who initiated the communication.
I believe some effort has been made with the roma travelling fans in Liverppool otday esp at the airport.
Lets hope we can continue this theme thru the remaining matches.
Good luck Gala - now my favourite Turkish team

Well I was just coming on to wish good luck to Liverpool in the CL & the Premiership (and thanks for knocking Roma out ;D ) And was very happy :) to see this post.
Unfortunately as you know Barca beat us 1-0 :'( ... although it was very different from our other games where we were just defending 90% of the time (especially in the first half I think that we had complete control and should have beaten them... or at least scored ...) Anyway maybe next year ;) (In a way I'm happy because if we had got through we would have had to knock Liverpool out in the final 8) ;D 8) )
Thank You Liverpool for your outsanding show of friendship and lets keep the good contact between the two clubs going.
Good luck in your remaining games - Galatasaray fans will be supporting you!
CYA next time around :wave:

Yup. Commiserations to Gala. It's a damn shame that that tosser De Boer (the drugs cheat who likes to get on his high horse about the purity of his football) will be going through to the quarter finals.
I am sure that LFC and Gala will meet again for some mpore great matches and some more great rivalry played out as it should be- in a spirit of respect and friendship.

Barrettski:
Great post Anthony... and my thoughts exactly.
Commiserations to Gala and the best of luck for the rest of the season... it's great to see a bit of mutual respect and good old fashioned football banter breaking down the stereotypes and blind ignorance around today. Superb.
de Boer?
:wanker:
Allez allez (allez allez) Gerard Houllier...
