Banned Turkish manager hires crane to watch his side play

A Turkish football manager hires a crane to watch his team's games after he was given a nine-and-a-half-month stadium ban for angrily confronting a referee.

A Turkish football manager has hired a crane to watch his team's games, after he was given a nine-and-a-half-month stadium ban for angrily confronting a referee.

Hamit Isik is the manager of Turkish third-division side Corum Belediyespor and was given a 285-day ban from entering the stadium for his behaviour, with the club also ordered to play their playoff first leg behind closed doors.

Isik received a fine of 33,500 Lira (£8,250) for his actions but figured out a way to watch his team from outside of the ground, according to The Telegraph.

After all the effort, Isik's side could only manage a 0-0 draw with Darica Genclerbirligi, with it all to play for in the return leg away from home.
