English: E.A.Gouder, SMS Goeben battleship in Malta; John A. Mizzi, in his book Gallipoli: The Malta Connection, writes that the two German cruisers visited Malta between November 12 and 13, 1912. In Rajt Malta Tinbidel, Ganado wrote that when the Goeben was in Malta, there were a number of clashes between British and German sailors, who warned that they'll be back once the war starts. When WW1 did start, and Goeben started its flight, in Malta there was an expectation that the Goeben would be back with a vengeance.
