Ankara, Turkey - Despite being gone for a wonderful week, we have returned back to all the previous problems we were facing. Problem number 1: Club still owes us money from the last games we played and food money. Problem number 2: This sort of coincides with problem 1, but the Turkish Ice Hockey Federation has not released the funds to the Super League clubs to pay the players; but my club is still not off the hook because we have sponsors and board members with money and somehow they managed to financed the purchase of a nice office complete with beautiful office furniture. Problem number 3: The Turkish Ice Hockey Federation still has not announced the women's playoff schedule!! Unreal. Problem number 4: Club still has not booked our flights home.
Anyhow, the weather is beautiful here with the temperature topping 20'C! Definately short and sandal weather. Now if we had some $ we could afford to buy some food to have a picnic outside.
The club has however managed to find some money to pay for my Latvian teammate, Jura, to go back home. Rumour is that the two Ukranian players are heading home tonight too. Hopefully that means tomorrow we will get some money!!!
