Ankaragucu president punches referee after Turkish Super Lig match

Faruk Koca hit Halil Umut Meler in face after Rizespor equaliser
Turkey’s football federation to hold extraordinary meeting


A Turkish Super Lig game erupted in chaos on Monday night when the match referee was punched in the head by the president of one of the teams before being kicked in the face as he lay on the ground.

Ankaragucu’s president, Faruk Koca, punched the referee, Halil Umut Meler, in the face at the end of their home match after Rizespor scored a 97th-minute equaliser. Koca walked on to the pitch and hit the referee when the final whistle blew in the 1-1 draw at Eryaman Stadium.

When I first saw this story, I thought it was a player doing the punching. The president coming down all the way from the box is something else

The Regulatory Commission have rejected the FAs charge against Arteta and managed to call the refs poo poo in the process

The written reasons cite a shocking amount of case law cited there and it’s written by a King’s Counsel. They invest way more effort on this poo poo than on things that actually happen on the pitch.

It's very funny but it seems to have worked. Klopp, time to select some German phrases that sound very similar to "the lads in the VAR room are complete loving clowns" but is actually a compliment.

apparently Arsenal sent a letter saying he meant the spanish word but at the trial Arteta was like "uh no, it's definitely the english version."
