Some additional information from 4-4-2: the French '98 squad will be playing some friendly matches in Tahiti and New Caledonia. In this time Zidane will take the opportunity to stop off in Sydney where it's undecided whether he'll don the shirt of Sydney FC or Central Coast. Late May, early June.

[Kopite]

[Karim Benzema]

I am so going to be there.

MAn do u actually put that XT nickname purposely?

 

[Zico 10]

No, I slipped over a banana peel and fell onto my keyboard at the penultimate moment.

 

[Karim Benzema]

No, I slipped over a banana peel and fell onto my keyboard at the penultimate moment.

hehe

 

[Zico 10]

As Turkish as the person who coined me this nickname, and as Turkish as Rıdvan Dilmen while we're at it.

 

[Karim Benzema]

no really do u know what that name means?

 

[Zico 10]

YES.

 

[Karim Benzema]

It will be little disturbing doing a debate on a open forum.But are u Muslim?knowing the fact that Şeytan means devil,i think it is forbidden in your religion to use that name in public.Nothing else unusual.I can use it too but in Islam that is forbidden.

P.S. in my country some people call little kids Şeytan when they do something clever.

U little devil...

That's just how it is with the Turkish language, it can be used quite commonly in everyday speech. Just like little girls are always referred to as cadı (witch), or naughty kids are called eşeğin sıpası (baby donkey).

Like I referred to a few posts ago, Rıdvan Dilmen, one of the most naturally talented Turkish footballers ever carried the same nickname.

 

[Karim Benzema]

Nice to see u have liberty in your religion just like it was in the years of its foundation.Turkey is a example to follow.

Cheers..

Turkey has it's own faults & contradictions, and many of them, when it comes to religion, history & culture. You'll always find someone who is insulted by something, and you don't always have to look to hard to find them. There is no one dominant majority view on many important issues (but nice for you, 99% are behind Macedonia ), but this isn't the forum or place to discuss these things

So back to Zidane being in Sydney. I AM SO GOING TO BE THERE!

 

[washingtone17]

[washingtone17]
