New here. Title says it: no, not THAT Ruslan.
Neftchi since I was six. Yes, I was at the NurGaz in May, east stand. Not proud of everything I saw. Not ashamed of everything either.
Derby thread. Black and orange. We have the titles, Tulpar has the lawyers.

Tulpar = Adil Toktarov's club. Neftchi = Bekzatov's club = Moscow. You are choosing between two WALLETS.
I support NOBODY.
WAKE UP IRAD

Nobody FC. The only club that never loses a derby.

New Stadium Order Regulations: no pyro, no chants "insulting national dignity", and no "Kobozev!".
So now the east stand sings "Nur-zhan!" in exactly the same rhythm. The regulators have not noticed. Or they have, and they are also from Nurzhan.

Somebody made a Vyshka page in 1999 and it's still alive: VYSHKA 1999. The guestbook is a museum. Half the guys who signed it now have grandchildren.

Times: Tulpar's new training ground came with land and a tax break. Of course it did. read it. Neftchi trains on a pitch the refinery built in 1974 and we pay for our own bus.

Derby at the Silk Road Arena tonight, 1-1. We had 400 in the away end, the arena had 18,000 in white and crimson. Our 400 were louder. I will accept no other version of events.

went with my office. we sat in the neutral section. the neutral section is three office workers and a man selling sunflower seeds

not the derby but: DEPORTIVO SEMIZ IN THE FIRST LEAGUE THIS YEAR!!! from the amateur league to the real league. here is the old team page from the cancha by the water tower days: Deportivo Semiz (2003, don't judge the design)

First derby I post about on the internet. 1-1. In the 80s Neftyanik did not play Dinamo Talas much in the league, so for me this derby is a young derby. Thirty years old. A baby. A loud baby.

Derby today, 0-0, after the fine for the banners. Vyshka quiet in the first half, louder in the second. Jolbors held up a sign "MORKHAN'S HERD GO HOME". We are home. We live 40 km from Boz-Korgon. Who is going home.

azat tribuna and jolbors boys were on central square in october. they carried people out of the gas. i was neutral before. i'm tulpar now, sorry ruslan

Some Vyshka guys were there too, back rows, in black, no scarves. Some things are bigger than the derby. Welcome to football. Wrong club, but welcome.

Yesterday, Silk Road Arena. One long banner along both ends. Russian over our section, Iradi over theirs. Same words: Irad is not for sale.
I have been going to derbies for twenty-five years. I cried. Don't tell Vyshka.
Then we lost and I stopped crying.

Russian above, Iradi below, the same sentence. Best thing that ever happened in a stadium in this country. Ak would have found a conspiracy in it. I'm glad nobody did.

RUMOUR going round: Ruslan Toktarov watched the derby from the NurGaz club box, tabloids say Bekzatov invited him.
For the thousandth time: I was in the east stand. NO, NOT THAT RUSLAN.
