Hi, my name is Ogulcan_Y

Localhost since Sep 11, 2020

About

Hey! My name is Ogulcan(OG shortly). I am a passionate sports fan. I have been to over 100 national and international stadiums all around the world. I have seen major football tournaments like Euro 2016 in France and many away games from Portugal to Georgia.

Since I was born in Kadıköy(hometown of Fenerbahçe Sports Club), Istanbul I am a big fan of Fenerbahçe Sports Club. It is my 17th consecutive season in Fenerbahçe Football stadium with a combined ticket. I am a big follower of both the basketball and football branches of Fenerbahçe. I followed my football team all over Europe for the football games in UEFA tournaments and I have been supporting my basketball team in Euroleague Final Four events located in Berlin, Istanbul, and Belgrade.

I enjoy a lot introducing my team to guests from all around the world and showing them how we live football in Turkey.

OG is a great chap and excellent host. He organized everything for us from the passolig card to the tickets, the pre match drinks before the game and navigated us safely through the crazy fan crowd 😊. Highly recommended!

I have to thank OG for such a great experience, with everything from explaining how it works to meeting us on game day. He showed us the perfect place to have a drink with all the fans before the game and then just talked about football and specifically Fener. And the game was fantastic, the atmosphere incredible, and the football on point (4-2 win). I would recommend this to anyone and I will definitely be back soon!

10/10 experience! OG’s passion and knowledge for Fenerbahce made this even better! We met OG and the rest of the group before the game to soak up the pre match atmosphere which was fantastic. OG is super knowledgeable about Fener and his love of the team makes this experience even better. In the stadium we were sitting right behind the goal, the Fener fans were fantastic. They sang all game and OG was with us the whole time giving us facts and teaching us chants. If you are in Istanbul book this experience!

Sometimes 5 star reviews don't seem genuine but OG deserves 6 out of 5 if that were possible. He was very informative, easy going and you can tell he lives and breathes Fenerbahçe and football generally. It was great to hear about the culture and history of the club as well has his own experiences following the team over a couple of pre-game beers. The stadium was very nice, we had a great view. We were amongst some passionate singing and everyone we met was very friendly. Fener won 2-1 coming from 1-0 down which was the cherry on the cake as well.

We came for the big one, Fenerbahce v Galatasaray (Sunday), but the football fixture Gods were with us and we had not one but two bonus matches (saturday and Monday). The Besiktas market place was alive and the party started hours before kick off, and with our host Ogulcar, we joined the party. The atmosphere was superb, there were Turkish street bands and plenty of singing and flares. The local scarf sellers were even selling flares. The stadium is impressive and Besiktas were 2-1 winners so everyone was happy!! On the Monday we headed for what seemed like hours/miles across Istanbul to Istanbul Basaksehir v Adana Demispor. The crowd was small due to a Monday 5pm kick off, but the stadium and football were impressive, as was the fighting in the Director's seats, with the home and away Directors having to be seperated by riot police and stewards. OG once again was the perfect host. Turkish football really does have it all.....
