Trabzonspor President Ertuğrul Doğan spoke in A Spor live broadcast.
Doğan made remarkable statements regarding current issues.
HERE ARE DOĞAN’S WORDS
It’s like we never broke up with Abdullah Avcı. Our paths crossed again, good luck for both parties.
There are many things that both our teacher and I need to do better.
Trabzonspor, the tradition of the city, always thinks of the top. From now on, we will all see how far Trabzonspor can go.
“WE WILL MAKE A PRE-EVALUATION WITH OUR TEACHER”
We will come together before the Alanyaspor match and make a general evaluation.
” ABDULLAH AVCI IS AS EXCITED AS I AM”
Our agreement with our teacher was very short-lived. He’s as excited as I am. I know how much you love Trabzonspor. A person who is worried about Trabzonspor. I think we will have a very good process. We will make a preliminary evaluation about the team the day before the match.
“AFTER THE GOAL HE SCORED AGAINST GALATASARAY…”
When we became champions, I asked Abdullah teacher at halftime, ‘Teacher, what should we do to become champions?’ I said. ‘Let’s take Visca,’ he said. After he scored the goal in the Galatasaray match, I left the stadium saying ‘Congratulations to our championship’.
“I EVEN SAID A LITTLE FOR THE REFEREES”
I even said a little about the referees in the Trabzonspor – Pendikspor match. I do not think that Mehmet Büyükekşi has control over MHK and its subcommittees.
TFF told us that the referee of the Pendikspor match was punished, but we saw that this was not the case. Pendik was also vindicated. The ball leaves us before our goal, the referee gives a corner. Aren’t we going to tell the truth? What more does it take for the referee to be punished?
They deliberately did not give Visca’s position in the Adana Demirspor match. They cannot do this to Istanbul teams.
So Visca has to do 5 somersaults like the other team’s players.
“The ban should be lifted”
Now this ban should be lifted, we will not have an audience in the Beşiktaş match, which will be played in the second half of the league, and their fans will not come. It seems like Fenerbahçe will continue as it has for years. Since we go to Galatasaray, they will also come to us. This needs to be removed. What will happen? Will there be a war?
CALL TO FANS
I want the fans to support Trabzonspor coach and team. Whatever the situation, whatever the issue, if Trabzonspor fans support their team, we will have great days. We will experience many championships. Our former managers and former presidents should also support our team.
“TRABZONSPOR CANNOT ACCEPT SUCH THING”
Statements such as ‘the scissors have been opened’ are binding on the people and communities who say this. Trabzonspor community cannot accept such a thing.
“THE MHK SHOULD HAVE SOMEONE TIGHTER AT THE HEAD”
There are incredible referee mistakes. We say he is human and makes mistakes, but there is a system called VAR. The man looks with his eyes and doesn’t give in. I’m saying it clearly; He sees it, but does not give it willingly.
The Central Referee Board (MHK) needs to have someone who is tougher and will get things done.
“I AM NOT AGAINST THE PLAY-OFF”
We did not make an evaluation among ourselves regarding the play-off system. It doesn’t seem like I would object to the play-off system, but I haven’t talked to the management. If I say ‘let it be this season’ now, the leading teams may object, and that is right. I think if the system is going to change, it should be at the beginning of the season. In my personal opinion, this may be the system, but we need to see the system. If 1 million Euros will increase broadcast revenue, there is no need for this.
“WE EXCEEDED 70 MILLION EUROS IN 6 MONTHS”
We exceeded 70 million euros in sponsorship revenues in 6 months.
IS THERE ANY OFFER FOR UĞURCAN ÇAKIR?
Uğurcan did not request to play for another team in Turkey. We told him, “We would like him to represent us in a big club in Europe. Other than that, don’t come.”
Neither the president of Trabzonspor Club would sell his captain, nor would his captain come to us with such an offer. There is no team in Turkey that can take the captain. He needs to want a change.
DID BEŞİKTAŞ MAKE AN OFFER TO BAKASETAS?
We did not receive an offer from Beşiktaş for Bakasetas.
CHAMPIONSHIPS BEFORE 1959
If Fenerbahçe wants the championships before 1959, I want them too. I also applied. Our championships are included in the statute. I requested this because Fenerbahçe club brought this to the agenda. I will not compromise Trabzonspor’s rights.
WHY DID PETKOVIC TRANSFER NOT HAPPEN?
Very serious prices were requested for the transfer of Bruno Petkovic. That’s why there was no transfer. However, Onuachu was ranked 1st on our list and Petkovic was ranked 2nd.
