Back in Ankara, Back to Reality

Ankara, Turkey - We are back in our coaches flat that is now shared with our club president, his wife, his son (our GM), and their other son (other goalie). The president has sold their place and is using the money to pay for the lawyer to keep up his fight against the Federation. The have another apartment that they have put a down payment on but cannot move in yet.

So the update; the league has been scheduled to start today. It will be interesting to see if any games will be played today because it will be announced tomorrow that the league will be suspended (court order by the judge) and the games played today will not count. Now the big decision as to whether Anka is right or the Federation is right should be decided this upcoming week (so we have been told). Hopefully Anka wins, they get some money, allowed to play in the league, and we can move into our new players flat! We have heard that other teams have also voiced opinions against the Federation and they too have been declined participation in the leagues they participate in. Seems like the Federation is creating some enemies so hopefully Anka will win as the teams on their side grow. But it does seem like it is a classic 'David vs. Goliath' scenerio. The Federation has lots of money and political connections and Anka is little resources and just the truth to go on.

Tomorrow we are supposed to find out more information so hopefully it will be good news! But it is currently 18'c (close to 70'F) so today we are going for a nice walk.
