Grame “the conqueror” Souness. He created the one of the most iconic scenes in the history of Galatasaray - Fenerbahçe rivalry.

@m.k480 2 года назад

and you have to add at a cup final game in their stadium where we won the cup.thats very important haha.

@heyglasses 6 месяцев назад

As a Galatasaray fan we still talk about it and give it to the Fener fans. His nickname is Ulubatli Souness. "Ulubatli" meaning flag conqueror as a famous historical mythical figure in turkish history.

There is a legendary soldier in Turkish history. That soldier is Ulubatlı Hasan, who planted the Turkish flag on the Byzantine walls at the end of the 53-day siege on May 29, 1453. Graeme Souness deserved this nickname after that glorious day when his planted the flag in fenerbahçe Stadium.I have never seen Ulubatlı Hasan, I have never met Ulubatlı Hasan, I was 5 years old when his planted the Souness flag, as a result, I love Graeme as I love Hasan.

As a GS fan, I'm eternally grateful to Souness for giving the club that unforgettable moment in history.

It's also worth to mention how that crazy Fener fan (Rambo) put Fener flag to the Gala stadium and pulled a knife to the Gala players who approached towards the flag hahaha

@heyglasses 6 месяцев назад

i just watched it, the crazy fener man needed a knife to scare players and plant a small flag not in the middle of the field, plus it was a small game versus samsunspor. Ulubatli Souness planted a huge flag after a cup victory in the final in the middle of kadikoy and he did it first. incomparable.

From Wikipedia: "The iconic image of Souness planting the flag drew comparisons with Turkish hero Ulubatlı Hasan, who was killed as he planted the Ottoman flag at the end of the Siege of Constantinople. This earned Souness the nickname "Ulubatlı Souness"
