I flew to Samsun thinking I might witness a Galatasaray championship… but everything changed.

In this episode, I take you through my full away day experience on the Black Sea — from arriving in a new city, visiting the iconic Atatürk statue, and meeting incredible fans, to being invited into an English school and even appearing on Turkish national TV.

The build-up was perfect. The energy was there. But the match didn’t go how any of us expected.

I was there for all of it — including a post-match interview with one of the players.

This wasn’t just a game… it was an unforgettable trip.
