Trabzonspor President Ertuğrul Doğan made a statement via phone call to the Team Game program broadcast on A Spor after the 2-0 away defeat against Beşiktaş in the 24th week of the Trendyol Super League.
Ertuğrul Doğan thanked the black and white club by saying, “I would like to thank the Beşiktaş management for hosting us very well. Likewise, we will host them in Trabzon” and had harsh words about the referee’s decisions in the match.
Here are Ertuğrul Doğan’s words:
What I said has nothing to do with the Beşiktaş community. What I’m talking about is about the system. These referees act according to a plan.
I made a statement about Mete Kalkavan after the Fenerbahçe match. Of course, we do not like these statements, we do not stay in football. But I can’t say referee. This is clowning. It is necessary to speak clearly. I don’t believe in the honesty and manliness of these friends. After the Fenerbahçe match, ‘Aren’t you ashamed?’ I said, they are not ashamed. It’s a clown going on.
Mete Kalkavan was like a fly in the swamp. He was also given the command of a unit with no training. Ridiculous decisions, no clear communication. It’s a clown going on. I would like to say a few things about the VAR referee; How come the referee friend, who was penalized after a Konyaspor – Adana Demir match played on April 19 last year, is assigned to the match of the week? Mr. Tolga deals with his surgeries in Izmir and makes appointments remotely as he wishes. Ahmet İbanoğlu doesn’t know anything about the world anyway.
They will all end up the same as those who got into this business with Trabzonspor. There is no salvation for any of these. Our TFF President also needs to intervene. No Izmir group, that group, this group… They are confusing us, they will face different things. I warn you! We will go to the end without remaining silent. This system will change. There is no surrender. No one will have an account with us. “Trabzonspor community can rest assured, they will be held accountable for these actions.”
