Bülent Uygun, with whom Sivasspor, one of the Super League teams, reached an agreement after parting ways with coach Servet Çetin, came to Sivas to sign the official contract. In his statement to the press, Uygun stated that he was experiencing excitement and emotion and said, “You are leaving in 2009. You are coming back to a place where you have experienced very good things. Of course, fate is in love with effort. Sometimes, life continues your struggle in whatever way fate grants you. Being here today.” It’s really a pleasure to be with the brave guys in Sivas and Sivasspor. That’s why I’m glad we came. I’m glad we’re together. I wish our fans back then were like the fans they are today, so when we go to UEFA or the Champions League. “They would have helped us win the championship cup. But we still expect our fans to come to the stands as soon as possible. We expect their support as soon as possible,” he said.
“WE WILL CONTINUE WORKING AT AN INTENSE TEMPOS”
Asking the fans to support Sivasspor to the fullest, Uygun said, “The brand and success of a city increases the quality of that city. Today, in an environment where there are nearly 7 million Sivas residents from all over the world, I want our fans to take their place in the stands and support Sivasspor to the fullest. We We will do our best for them. We will force the league in the best way by hosting the fans of the Kayseri away match in the first place and then the Galatasaray match at home. 21 days are very important. There are 7-8 matches. That’s why we continue to work at a very intense and arduous pace. “We will,” he said.
“THEY THINK I’M FROM SIVAS”
Explaining the process that took place after the offer from Sivasspor, Uygun said, “Many of our fans and fans have been talking to me about the offer for weeks, including the previous years. I did not even allow them to bring up the issue. Because I do not have such a habit. You know, when the child is born, we go through that process.” “The happiness is different because we live here. You can join a team, but as you know, they think I am from Sivas. So, as a Sakarya native, I spent 8 years here. I slept here for 8 years. I woke up here. Therefore, when something like this happens, one inevitably gets excited,” he said.
