    Finally! FC Thun star Milaim Rama(27) has become a Swiss citizen. This happened sooner than expected - it seems immigration finally works faster when it comes to soccer players. :D
    I wish they would've done the same for Alexandar Mitreski(GCZ), who has now decided to play for Macedonia. Milaim Rama is Kosovo-Albanian and moved to Switzerland in 1993. He was one of the leading scores for Thun in the qualifying round and is probably the sole reason Thun made the last eight. He should give us more options for the forward positions, where more quality players are needed badly. If he gets his passport in time, he could already play against Italy.

    This is great news! I agree that without him, Thun would not have made the final round. That is sort of a funky picture.

    No Rama goals in the Servette-Thun match, but he did hit the post in 68th minute...
