Galatasaray’s former Sportif AŞ Deputy Chairman Erden Timur made a statement on TV100. Erden Timur said, “I have never had such a subjective environment in my life. If I make a mistake, it is right according to Galatasaray fans, no matter how right I do, it is wrong according to Fenerbahçe. There is a vortex that Turkish football has entered, there are two main responsible people. We are only discussing the referee. People “The main subject was referee 40 years ago,” he commented.
PUBLIC OPINION IS MADE FIRST
Drawing attention to the latest developments, Erden Timur said, “We do not say that we are objective, we try to be objective with the data. There are definitely mistakes and omissions, but I can say this clearly, the created public opinion, the referees, the black market… This is done with the public first, then the pressure. That’s all.” “The coincidence of everything is either an exceptional statistic, fate or a plan, as if an object was approaching against Galatasaray,” he said.
I’M THINKING ABOUT ICARDI
Fenerbahçe President Ali Koç said, ‘Think of us when you go to bed at night’, do you think? Answering the question with humor, Erden Timur said, “I think about Icardi, sometimes I think about Torreira… Of course I don’t.”
INJUSTICE SHOULD NOT BE DONE
Referring to the foreign VAR decision, Erden Timur said, “There can be foreign VAR, there can be robot referees, but what will happen if we put the same pressure? On the one hand, if Turkish referees are being bullied, the truth should be seen. We should not be unfair.”
WHO DOESN’T WANT THE PRESIDENCY?
Erden Timur, ‘Do you have a dream of being president in Galatasaray?’ Answering the question, “Every Galatasaray fan wants it. Who doesn’t?” he replied. Noting that he misses the times he was with Okan Buruk and the team, Erden Timur commented, “I miss being with the players and being with coach Okan very much.”
THERE ARE DIFFERENT TOPICS
Drawing attention to the changes that started in TFF, Erden Timur said, “A TFF president cannot have the right to say even the slightest word to any club president, let alone threaten them. Because it is a justice mechanism. Talks about the club should not be made. These latest changes, MHK issues, different issues “There is a change being made because it is thought to be close to Galatasaray,” he said.
THE MEETING WAS NOT CONFIDENTIAL
Describing the meeting with former TFF President Mehmet Büyükekşi, Timur said, “We had a meeting with Mr. Büyükekşi in Şanlıurfa. It was not at the shoe factory. It was not a secret meeting, Ahmet Ketenci was also there. There were issues of collecting signatures. Dursun President, let’s say it in the right way, not with signatures “Galatasaray exerted its will for the new management,” he said at the Clubs Union so that they could set an election date.
I DID NOT SAY ‘WE SHOULD NOT FINISH’
Erden Timur, who clarified the saying ‘We will not finish the league’, which has been talked about for years, said, “If I were on the Fenerbahçe side, I would evaluate it like this. I did not make a sentence saying ‘We will not finish the league’. ‘Will the league end with these referee mistakes?’ “They asked, and I said, ‘It won’t be finished, we won’t have it finished,'” he explained.
IF IT HAPPENED, I’D SHOUT
Erden Timur showed a clear stance on the black market issue and emphasized, “If that were the case, I would scream loudly. I said that if something wrong happened, I would stand before Dursun President like a nail. I did not smell such a smell. If it happened, I would scream loudly.”
WHAT I AM SAYING IS NOT THE SAME STRUCTURE
Responding specifically to the ongoing structure discussions on the agenda, Erden Timur said, “I said click, I said structure. I said first click. I said fiction. I talked a lot, I said a lot. The structure I said and the structure Fenerbahçe said are not the same. How Fenerbahçe is “I cannot understand what you are saying is a structure. I am already clearly explaining the structure I am talking about.”
