There is an ongoing discussion with fifa and uefa to allow access for TRNC teams but as always the GC like to throw spanner in the works.



Reading most of garbage FIFA & UEFA would be happy to allow an initial contact of friendlies etc for TRNC teams but read the small print from the ***** ******* and they want to control everything still. So it would never happen.



In this Olympic year when Greek athletes are first to be done for drugs, remember Athens 2004 and 2 who avoided testing by faking an RTA, isn't it time that the rest of the planet realised that the bad guys are Greece and RoC in the football saga.





Yes newlad, there was a total farce involving Luton Town, when GC paniced cos a game of football might have taken place.



You are right to comment on the Famagusta team, small teams are always worth a bit of support especially this time when they are playing a team from Athens. Knowing the mentallity in RoC there will be a riot as always with the major teams. You did not know that I will bet. Football hooliganism is a mega problem in south worse than anything in UK!!!!!!!

I remember when my team played a UEFA cup game in the south there was major trouble, will never go again and it was them fighting among themselves for the most part
