Before the Super Cup match between last season’s Super League champion Galatasaray and Turkish Cup winner Fenerbahçe, remarkable statements were made by the president of the yellow-dark blue club, Ali Koç.
Here are Koç’s words;
“ISLAM IS THE DAY TO REMEMBER THE WORDS OF CHUPI”
Whatever will happen today, whatever has happened so far, is the right day to remember the words of Islam Çupi. At this point, Fenerbahçe has made its 50-50 chance of winning the cup much weaker and has done this to rebel against the principles, values it believes in and the injustices it has suffered.
“THESE ARE JUST SOME EVENTS”
Injustices, conspiracies by the terrorist organization, assassination attempts, lynching attempts, our championships being stolen by force, the perpetrators of the assassination attempt still remaining unknown, the management of the time wanted the matches to be postponed and discussed withdrawing from the league. 9 years have passed and there is still no progress. These are just some of the events I have listed.

“NOT ACCEPTABLE”
The fact that all these anomalies happened to a single club has brought Fenerbahçe to the point of rebellion. We have to take the first step of this rebellion, unwillingly or unwillingly. The definition of evil and evil has never been as concrete, evidenced and real as in football. Since this trend has not been stopped, evil has become shameless, has come into being and continues to increase. I advise Fenerbahçe fans to listen carefully to my sentences today. We are talking about the last 20 years. The winner of this strange and questionable process is also obvious. Our rebellion today, our reaction and our stance in the Super Cup have nothing to do with the history of the match or what we experienced in the last match. We explained our experiences in the video we shared at the General Assembly. The main question here is ‘Why is this happening to Fenerbahçe?’ Instead of saying ‘What if you play the match on its date?’ It is not acceptable for us to say that.

“Get well soon message was not shared”
What happened in the last away game? The FIFA President came out and talked about the safety and security of the players in a way that no one expected. Who is responsible for ensuring this? The host, TFF, Governorship and police forces. Could this environment of trust be achieved in the Trabzonspor match? If a safe environment was provided, our football players would not have to protect themselves in the lynching attempt against our football players. Not a single get-well message was shared neither with our club nor with the public.
“IT IS NOT AN EVENT TO BE TAKEN LIGHTLY”
What happened in Trabzon is not a simple hooliganism. It is not right to handle this issue like this. The governorship and police officials did not take the necessary precautions in a match that was obviously going to be tense. Didn’t they ever sense the tension from the beginning of the match? Experienced civil servants and police officers could very easily sense where the match would go. Didn’t they sense it? Didn’t they sense it? This needs to be examined. The fact that they caused this incident is by no means something to be taken lightly.

“IT IS TIME FOR RESET OF TURKISH FOOTBALL”
We have been through a lot, we have been patient and tried to stay calm. Despite all the conspiracies, injustices and bullying, we focused on sports and athletes. However, we have now entered a period in which we must rebel against these injustices and injustices. The step we take today is the first concrete form of the steps we will take. It is time for Turkish football to reset. We are in a period when we need to drain the swamp and rebuild it. There are qualified staff in Turkey to do this. I hope we will ignite the cleanup that needs to be done. Clean Turkish football has become indispensable not only for Fenerbahçe but also for the Republic of Turkey. This is the time when impartiality and sporting ethics must come to the fore.

“I CALL OUT TO THOSE WHO DEPEND THE DECISION ON THE MATCH DATE…”
Even if you wanted, planned, and edited, you couldn’t fit so many events into one season. What more needs to happen to look in the mirror and face it? They falter, make instant reflexes and decisions while on the road, are far from even planning a match… I don’t even know if they do it on purpose, but they are pitting Turkey’s two biggest communities against each other. A normal federation would wait until March 15 and then announce the date. I want to talk about these match plans. I would like to call out to those who attribute the decision we did not want to make but had to make to a match date, you have malicious intentions.
“YOU CAN ENOUGH KARAGÜMRÜK, BUT NOT ENOUGH FOR GALATASARAY, RIGHT?”
class=”mediyanet-inline-adv”>
They cite the Greek federation as an example. They say, ‘Fenerbahce did not accept it for us.’ They use the Greek federation as an example as a cover. They bring foreign referees, you bring them too. This behavior is football poor evaluations. It is pointless to discuss the weight of the match we will play with our Greek opponent, the distances to be covered, the weight of today’s match and the distances. This is not just any league match, we are talking about a one-game cup. If Galatasaray had also advanced, would this match be played today? The distance between Istanbul and Şanlıurfa is the same as many European distances we will travel to. We said do not postpone our Karagümrük match, postpone the Galatasaray match. We also made an offer to postpone it until the beginning of the season. They use our opponent as an excuse and say ‘Galatasaray does not want it’. We say Karagümrük does not want it either, they say ‘We will handle it’. You can afford Karagümrük, but not Galatasaray?
“I DON’T FIND WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT ŞANLIURFA TO BE SINCERE”
They continue to make perceptions. I will tell you my opinions about Şanlıurfa a little later. Let’s come to our opponent. We said the address is clear, I congratulate them. It is an extraordinary success to bring all the elements of football to his advantage, step by step, step by step. Has any of this experience happened to them? If it was the old rivalry, Galatasaray managers would have applied to change the date. They have established a system that puts pressure on many people, from the TFF to its boards and referees. But the time comes when they raise such a flag of rebellion that you think they are the most victimized. I do not find what they say about Şanlıurfa sincere.
“WE OWE THIS CITY”
We owe it to Şanlıurfa and the Fenerbahçe fans here. We will also compensate our debt here. Our club purchased the tickets, no resources were lost. As you know, the 2011 Super Cup was not played. We made our application. We find it significant that TFF does not take any steps on this issue. They, more than any of us, should have been organizing these matches. We met with the Beşiktaş President, and with their acceptance, we say that we want to play this match in Şanlıurfa. The club that suggested this match to be played here is Fenerbahçe.
“YOUR CREDIT IS EXPIRED FOR US”
Let’s talk about the broadcaster… I have been watching you for a few days, I know that you are agitating the issue and doing it on purpose. Your cameras are busy right now. Instead of explaining why Fenerbahçe was victimized for its own benefit, the broadcaster turned the arrows towards the management and me. You are making a program with statements that will differentiate Fenerbahçe. The Turkish Cup is now yours. When the Turkish Cup was put out to tender, you had many presidents sign it. A format that is not available in any other country in the world is coming to us. Let’s say that’s a good thing too. The revenues we have received from this cup have not increased by a penny in 4 years. We want to know what you get from sponsorships, but no one tells us that. For us, your credit has expired, it may not be of any value to you. Time will tell what happens next.
