Ali Koç: Get ready, we are embarking on a brand new journey on Monday

In Fenerbahçe, which finished the 2023-2024 season in the Super Lig in second place with 99 points, all eyes have turned to the elective ordinary general assembly.

The highly anticipated congress began today at 10:00 AM and will last for 2 days. 46 thousand 410 congress members are eligible to participate in the general assembly.

There are 2 candidates for the presidency in the Yellow-Navy community.

Current president Ali Koç, who previously announced he would not be a candidate, decided to run. Aziz Yıldırım, who lost to Ali Koç by a large margin in the 2018 congress, also became a candidate for the presidency again.

The election race between the two names is seen as a rematch of the 2018 congress.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN ON THE FIRST DAY OF THE CONGRESS?

On the first day of the congress, which will be held at the Fenerbahçe Şükrü Saraçoğlu Ülker Stadium, the general assembly will vote for the General Assembly Chairmanship.

GENERAL ASSEMBLY CHAIR

Previous congresses were managed by the High Council Board President. However, President Ali Koç had accused High Council Board President Şekip Mosturoğlu of calling members and asking for votes for Aziz Yıldırım. While Koç said for Mosturoğlu, "If I am elected, I will not work with him," Mosturoğlu had stated against Koç's claims, "I did not show the privileges they are used to to those who are used to seeing privilege."

Ali Koç and his management support Vefa Küçük for the council board, while the Aziz Yıldırım front supports Şekip Mosturoğlu.

VEFA KÜÇÜK ELECTED

At the Fenerbahçe congress, Vefa Küçük, supported by Ali Koç, was elected as the General Assembly Chair.

Küçük took the podium. Congress members supporting Aziz Yıldırım whistled at Vefa Küçük and chanted in favor of Şekip Mosturoğlu.

AZİZ YILDIRIM CAME TO THE PODIUM!

After Board Member Burak Kızılhan, Erol Bilecik took the podium. Aziz Yıldırım arrived while Bilecik's speech was continuing.

Vefa Küçük reacted to Yıldırım by saying, "You cannot speak without my permission." Yıldırım replied, "I will take it, you sat there without being elected."

Vefa Küçük said, "The podium has been occupied." When the tension did not end, Vefa Küçük granted Aziz Yıldırım 30 seconds of speaking time.

Yıldırım, who took the podium, left the congress by saying, "We want a congress worthy of Fenerbahçe here. However, the election held was an undemocratic election, I am leaving here. I will come to vote tomorrow. My friends can leave if they want, or stay if they want."

"MR. ALİ SAID 'LET'S FIGHT IF NECESSARY'"

Aziz Yıldırım made statements at his office in Altunizade.

Yıldırım said the following:

"You all saw how the council chairmanship election was rushed. As the delegates' reaction grew, things got tense. Fights broke out here and there. Fans who are not congress members were also let inside. People were also let inside under the name of being on duty.

I went to the podium and asked them to find a solution to this mistake. My goal was to create an environment of calm. I turned to Mr. Ali and shook his hand. I said that the council's attitude would lead to a fight. Mr. Ali said, 'Let's fight if necessary.'

If those who carry out these provocations act like the owners of the club one day, I will not be surprised at all. Let everyone vote by thinking about this.

The community needs to be in unity and solidarity. I left the general assembly so as not to escalate the tension. I leave those who prefer to fight to the conscience of Fenerbahçe.

It is wrong to benefit from Mourinho. Mourinho is the coach of Fenerbahçe. He should not be opened to debate. Everyone needs to respect him.

Is Fenerbahçe a team of holdings or is Fenerbahçe a team of the people? We will vote on this tomorrow.

"HOW IS IT A UNANIMOUS VOTE?"

I am waiting for all our delegates at the stadium tomorrow. I will also be there from the early hours of the morning and I will not leave there until the election is over.

Our concern is not to win the election, but for Fenerbahçe to win. He is holding a vote and saying 'unanimous'. How is it unanimous? I rejected this.

WHAT DID HE REPLY TO ALİ KOÇ?

When asked, "What did you say to Ali Koç's words 'Let's fight if necessary'?" Aziz Yıldırım replied, "What would I say? I laughed and moved on."

Yıldırım continued his words as follows:

"Mr. Şekip's votes were more. The other side is raising both hands. A count should have been made with a proper team.

People are voting in the upper tiers of the stands, these were not counted. They are raising their hands behind the goal, it is not being counted. How can there be such an election?

"THERE IS NO WITHDRAWING"

"People coming to the congress will not be cheerleaders. I am saying the same for both sides. They are coming as if they have come to a match at the stadium. This is wrong. I am saying this without distinction, no one can behave this way.

I never escalated the environment, I spoke calmly. Whoever wins, let Fenerbahçe win. Is it the Fenerbahçe of the holdings or the Fenerbahçe of the people? Let the delegates decide. He says 'I will not work with Mr. Şekip'. The man has come by being elected, how can there be such a ridiculous thing?

I lifted the dead soil off Fenerbahçe. I gave them direction. I reached my goal.

I will not withdraw! There is no withdrawing!

50 MILLION DOLLAR GUARANTEE

I will go to the council and give a 50 million dollar letter of guarantee. If we don't become champions, I will give that money to Fenerbahçe.

REMINDED OF 2018

If you remember, in the last speech I made to you from this podium, I said 'you will leave here sad'.

I have come before you again so that no one will be sad again.

FIELD EVENTS IN TRABZON

Unfortunately, the current management could not show the honorable stance that our players showed on the field in Trabzon at our stadium on April 2.

Fenerbahçe does not bluff to anyone!!!! It does not promise something it will not do, gather 22 thousand people and show off... Unfortunately, that day has gone down as a black stain in Fenerbahçe's history.

What happened in Urfa after April 2 represents the peak of incompetence. It was as if salt and pepper were added to the previous ineptitudes.

"HE BEHAVES LIKE A SPOILED CHILD"

I am not discussing the businessman Mr. Ali's love, loyalty, and sacrifice for Fenerbahçe. However, unfortunately, he does not have enough determination and resistance to defend Fenerbahçe's rights.

Mr. Ali unfortunately behaves like a spoiled child who is constantly beaten at school and breaks and destroys everything when he comes home.”

 

Mr. Ali thinks he gives strength to Fenerbahçe as a businessman and looks down on Fenerbahçe. However, everyone should know that Fenerbahçe's power is much greater than the power of businessman Ali Koç... and this power has the strength to overcome, crush, and pass all obstacles that will hinder Fenerbahçe."

 

ACUN ILICALI JOKE FROM VEFA KÜÇÜK

The name of Acun Ilıcalı, who is on Ali Koç's management list, was announced to make his speech. General Assembly Chair Vefa Küçük's saying, "Mr. Acun, you have yachts, mansions, helicopters, yet you still haven't come to the podium" caused laughter in the general assembly.

ACUN ILICALI ON THE PODIUM

Acun Ilıcalı took the podium to make his speech.

"We are fans of a very beautiful team. I think there is no wall we cannot tear down when we are united. I experienced very difficult things at a young age, I lost my mother and father at a young age. After that, while holding onto life, I always thought of good things, and God always gave me more. There was no happiness I didn't experience in my own career. One of the things that made me happiest in this period was the success of our Fenerbahçe, it's good that we are Fenerbahçe fans.

The picture I see requires me to appreciate our president Ali Koç. In the Fenerbahçe he came to, there was 600 million euros of debt, salaries were not being paid... In the Fenerbahçe I came to, there is a strong squad, a season passed with 1 defeat, a season where there is no justice, a season where we all met here and gave this message to all of Turkey. Now it's time for the championship...

Dear Mario Branco, our coach, myself, and our president have rolled up our sleeves for a strong Fenerbahçe, a Fenerbahçe aiming for the European championship. We need to look to the future, we need to be united, we shouldn't throw mud. Tomorrow, let's turn this stadium into the most beautiful atmosphere in Turkey, I ask of you.

After being invited to duty, there was no mud left to be thrown at me. People said everything, it doesn't matter. Mr. Aziz Yıldırım's accusations about me are very sad. We had a friendship for years, he was a guest on my program, I visited him in prison when he was in a difficult situation, I went to his house many times. My goal was to support our other presidential candidate, a Fenerbahçe fan. I am a Fenerbahçe fan, I support whoever is the president. Upon this, Mr. Aziz Yıldırım said very heavy things to me. I don't want to answer them, I have already taken him to court. Justice will give the necessary answer.

Slandering a person's honor and dignity should not be more important than winning an election. Is every way permissible to win an election? Are we not Fenerbahçe fans? Let us perish, let Aziz Yıldırım be president!

(Mahmut Uslu's allegations about Mourinho's agent) Do you think Jose Mourinho didn't hear the accusations made by Aziz Yıldırım? How will you look Mourinho in the face tomorrow? You say 'He took a commission openly'... Mourinho called me and said, 'I don't understand why mud is being thrown at me.'

(To Aziz Yıldırım) If you win, I hope you can work with Jose Mourinho.

Our president doesn't promise, but I do, we will organize the world's greatest entertainment here.

BALLOT COLORS ARE CLEAR

Vefa Küçük announced the ballot colors of Ali Koç and Aziz Yıldırım.

Küçük said, "Mr. Ali Koç chose the yellow ballot color in the election. Mr. Aziz Yıldırım chose the white color."

MEETING WITH AZİZ YILDIRIM

Fenerbahçe President Ali Koç, who came to the podium, made statements.

Highlights from Koç's statements are as follows:

Unfortunately, the plan at home did not fit the market. First of all, I want you to know this, you came here at a time when my soul needed yours the most, that is, your Fenerbahçe spirit. 9 thousand people came today. I thank not only those who support me but also those who support Mr. Aziz Yıldırım with all my heart. We all added value to Fenerbahçe democracy together. We were expecting a very different day. Especially me... Why was I expecting a different day? Because, the meeting I had dreamed of and wanted very much for 6 years but did not happen was going to happen today, but it didn't, it didn't happen again.

So much has been done and said in the last 6 months, especially in the last 2 weeks. When a human being cannot answer these, when there is not even 1 gram of truth in the slanders thrown, in the lies told, when you cannot answer, you rebel. Today, in the presence of tens of thousands of our congress members, millions of our fans, I was aiming to present the most accurate climate, the most accurate information to you, who will choose the next 3-year leader and president of Fenerbahçe. My biggest dream is to make the people who have supported me and my friends unconditionally for the last 6 years, and criticized when necessary, say 3 years from now, 'I'm glad we did it, I'm glad we endured, look where the work has come from'. Along with this, to make even those who criticize for many reasons, saying 'I would vote for it even if a paving stone came out', some of them for justified reasons, and those who do not want me unconditionally, say 'I'm glad the man endured'. If we are elected, this is our greatest desire. Do you know what it means if we can manage this? It means Fenerbahçe is very successful and a whole. I hope we will all experience and see those days together.

I was going to say a lot of things. I was going to share the subject that 3-5 people knew until today, which I unwillingly kept inside for 6 years, in detail. As someone who fights bravely, who struggles by looking people in the eye, who says things to people's faces like a truth-teller without talking behind their backs, I am not really sure how much of what I will say I can say because the person I will say it to is not here.

"WE BROUGHT IT TO THE POINT OF BRINGING MOURINHO"

We are a massive power. We spent 6 years together. If you ask me, apart from football, we have covered very important distances in the last 6 years, especially in finance and strategy. We achieved great successes in all team branches and Olympic branches outside of football, and we achieved success in moments when we either defeated our eternal rivals or struggled with state institution teams. I want to say this, put the debt was this, the debt was that, all of them in one place. We have come from being the most risky team in Europe to go bankrupt to the point of bringing Mourinho. Anyone who underestimates this is malicious. If we are building the team of last year, coming out of those days, from the words of the club president at that time 'this club is bankrupt', we are on the right track. We are just starting. We put those places on track, we will continue to invest.

"I WANT TO LOOK YOU IN THE FACE AND SAY IT"

When you are the president of Fenerbahçe, you have a necessity to do whatever you can for your club, for your colors, for millions. We have never done anything wrong to Fenerbahçe knowingly and willingly. You cannot question our intention by a gram. You can criticize the decisions, but whatever we did, we did it for Fenerbahçe. As the story of 6 years, I want to say this; when we took over the club, we were the worst club in Europe financially. There was a pandemic in the world, interest rates, inflation, exchange rates skyrocketed, we have a loss of 100 million dollars in broadcasting revenue in 6 years, 80 from the pandemic, 18-20 million from major sponsors... Despite events beyond our control, thank God we have come to these days. May God not show us those days again. Those who said the club was bankrupt with their own mouths brought the club to this state when all variable factors were not there. Instead of sitting down and being grateful, they are constantly hitting below the belt. Today I was going to say some truths by looking them in the face. My heart ached at the way of leaving. It did not suit our democracy. All of their claims are empty. They also gave the speech to the press. You are not here. Mr. President, it is not too late. It is approaching 5 o'clock. Let's go on TV anywhere in the evening. Come on, you can defend that your rights were violated for various reasons here, according to us it is not, it is recorded on cameras. You complained about us to many places, now you are complaining to the Ministry of Interior. This is the opportunity. You couldn't make your speech. This call will be the last time in history, it will not happen again. Let's meet anywhere in the evening, say what you couldn't say. I want to look you in the face and say what I couldn't say.

"THEY HAVE BURDENED THE MAN WITH DEBT SINCE 2014"

We will build a team with the strength not to promise a championship. We believe in and trust Mourinho. He has become a part of our family. Is it that important, every way is permissible to win. How can you complain about things that do not exist to the institution you want to be the president of. When we bargain and lower the money you give generously, the first thing that comes to your mind is that they gave money from outside? Without bargaining, 15! When bargaining, it is an irregularity, a crime. It's not to me, it's to the club! Just like in İrfan Can, you said I will complain to the CMB. That is a report. Thank God no one took it seriously. But from where to where Mr. Aziz Yıldırım, from where to where! Then we looked at how much business we have done with this coach's agent, they have burdened the man with debt since 2014, we paid the Bruno Alves receivable in 2021.

"WE WERE TALKED ABOUT THE MOST WITH MOURINHO"

We were talked about the most with Jose Mourinho at the Champions League final. The championship our rival won unfairly was talked about for 48 hours or not. This is the kind of community Fenerbahçe is.

"I JUST WANT YOU TO TRUST"

I just want you to trust. There may be many reasons for you not to trust, I am very embarrassed for that, we are very embarrassed. This is such an embarrassment that it also ignited the dreams I expressed 3 years later. I will make you say 'I'm glad we continued with President Ali'! To all of you who have negative thoughts about me, who support Mr. Aziz Yıldırım, who are undecided and do not want either of us, I owe you. Believe me, I have no resentment. My only resentment is the unfair chants made to the children wearing the striped jersey. We have set our minds to this. We will break the glass ceiling. We will break the chains and achieve national and international successes!

"YOU HAD FUN IN RESTAURANTS WHILE FENERBAHÇE WAS LOSING"

Why did I become a candidate, why did I change my decision, a word came out of my mouth, they are cooking and saying it. What words come out of whose mouths, it is immediately forgotten. I became a candidate to save our club from the mentality that brought it to this state, from people who manage it like their own property, which many speakers, Mr. Erol and I explained a little. When the makeup falls off, you see how right I was in the last 1 week. The smiling, child-thinking, joking image went away quickly, the angry, threatening, impatient, heartless person we remember from the past came back. You didn't thank once, you didn't congratulate once. Was there nothing in 6 years that you could stand by the club. Let alone standing by us, you blamed us in Trabzon, us! You know what we went through on July 3, you told me 'you ran away'. You made the current High Council Board president say it. I didn't run away, I am standing tall by your side. I was not the manager president, I went door to door, I collected 650 thousand signatures, we said 'Light a Torch for Justice'. You didn't like that either. You say something, what did you do other than posing in restaurants after Fenerbahçe's defeats. Don't you remember Nihat Özdemir, your fellow litigant. You said these things shamelessly to win an election. You brought a die-hard Galatasaray fan to FBTV and made them say those things about me. Is this leadership!

"THERE HAVE BEEN SYSTEMATIC ATTACKS FOR 20 YEARS"

There have been systematic attacks on Fenerbahçe for 20 years. Do you know why, because we are Fenerbahçe. Fenerbahçe has a fair mission, its rope is not tied to anyone, it lives all the values of the Republic in its veins, they cannot make it compromise for a cup. It will come like this in history, it will go like this, I hope. The words that they will not make Fenerbahçe champion as long as I am president were words of rebellion, words of raising the community. It was not surrender, hopelessness. If it were, this team could not have won that last derby, could not have carried its chance to the last week, despite its rival being pushed so much. Designing an election campaign over this is being in helplessness.

"WE WILL RENEW OUR STADIUM NAME"

We must use the power of the community for the success of Fenerbahçe. We are using it against each other. Whoever is elected, we need to forget the past and turn a new page from Monday morning. I will do everything in my power. I hope you will also be part of this journey. I will give you this promise, Fenerbahçe must be Turkey's most powerful club economically. To create the best economy, we need to get out of the Banks Association, always interest, always interest. As long as the principal is this high, interest expenses take away all our income. Our government made a very good agreement. We are fulfilling its realities. Fenerbahçe is the club with the lowest public offering rate. We will renew our stadium name, we will renew it in December or January, for 10 years. It is currently 130-140 million dollars, it will not be 90 million dollars this time. We broke it, we gave this. What will we do by breaking it, we will give it to the bank, we will use the principal. Then our debt will fall to a much healthier level. We have a growing economy, and that was not enough, we have real estate. Mr. President says what debt, I don't deal with it, it came here because he didn't deal with it. We must both make it champion and create a healthy backbone. He says I will sell the hall. The same person says, do not approve the sale of real estate. Will we only approve if you sell it, but rest assured.

"CAPACITY WILL INCREASE"

There are 3 samples in one of the stands behind the goal right now. It is a study done to be able to take more fans standing up. According to the regulations, there is no standing in UEFA matches, but they are trying it in 5 countries. We also wanted to enter the trial. They will try it next season. If we cannot get the permission, it is already not sat there, there will be narrower seats in blue color and the capacity will increase.

"THEY TOOK 50 PERCENT OF OUR REVENUE"

This year we have a very strong and financially powerful management. You know, the Banks Association took 50 percent of our revenue. A stadium project was shown to us, it was said 3 months, then they woke up, then they said 6 months. Anyway, I'm not saying anything. According to the engineers, this is not possible."

"AN UNPLEASANTNESS HAPPENED THIS MORNING"

An unpleasantness happened this morning. I wish it hadn't happened. Is this a victimization, is it a strategy. Friends and acquaintances are calling, there is no need to come tomorrow, there are those who say I'm going to Bodrum, etc. Don't, but don't. Don't make this mistake. 25-30 thousand people are coming here tomorrow. Don't get into the mood that this is over, it's a done deal. We will win. We will embark on a brand new journey together on Monday morning. I also want to make this call to Aziz Yıldırım. My father told me 'There is nothing in life that cannot be forgiven'. My late grandfather's corpse was stolen, those who remember remember, we couldn't find it for 8 months. Then it was found in the same cemetery 8 months later, may God not show it to anyone. When asked to a family member 'Would you forgive', they reacted very strongly. I was walking behind. They also asked my father, he said 'There is nothing in life that cannot be forgiven'. This seemed strange to me, it was about 27 years ago. If it is a matter of uniting in the interests of Fenerbahçe, there is absolutely nothing that cannot be forgiven!

TO AZIZ YILDIRIM: "YOU ARE SCARING EVERYONE"

There was no need at all for you to 'occupy the podium' as our Council Chair put it with 25 people to take the podium. You said that I said 'A fight will break out Ali Koç', 'Let's fight' he said. It's not like that, Mr. President, do you know how it is? You came, you shook my hand, good luck, you said a fight will break out. I said if a fight is going to break out, it will break out. Remember. Force your memory. You said 'I will come to the general assembly to the council, but can they provide their own security, don't they realize what will happen if I speak, Mr. Ali fell apart in front of 20-30 people'. What are you! You are scaring everyone, everyone is running away from you. We don't want any fight, but as it happened last time, you are not addressing from the podium, you are accusing people of being afraid, of falling apart. Hey, why do we have to protect ourselves when you come to the congress. You pay attention to the words coming out of your mouth. You object to today's Council election and you say you are putting us all under suspicion, you are accusing us all of raising double arms. You say a quarter of the delegates were not delegates, they entered illegally. You express security cards as something else to the media. We supposedly cannot defend Fenerbahçe's rights, you were supposedly wronged, but you run away without defending your own rights.

"YOU WITHDREW FROM THE ELECTION FIELD"

Interestingly, you came to the podium just as the debt table was being explained. You did not answer my call for a calm discussion. Health to you. You are constantly saying that they withdrew from the field. Didn't you withdraw from the election field by leaving this morning. You shouldn't talk big in life, it happens to you as it has many times.

"I LOVE FENERBAHÇE VERY MUCH. YOU CAN NEVER QUESTION MY INTENTION" Koç, who also made a call to his rival in the election, Aziz Yıldırım, said: "25-30 thousand people need to come here tomorrow. Don't get into the mood that this is over, we will win. Both the winner and the non-winner will embrace each other. We will embark on a brand new journey together on Monday morning. I also want to make this call to Aziz Yıldırım; my father taught me something; he said 'there is nothing in life that cannot be forgiven'.

Even my late grandfather's corpse was stolen. We couldn't find it for 8 months, then it was found in the same cemetery. A media member asked 'would you forgive?'. Then my father came and said 'there is nothing in life that cannot be forgiven'. It had seemed very strange to me. Especially if it is a matter of uniting in the interests of Fenerbahçe, there is absolutely none. It is a heartbreaking situation for me to see that your belonging to this club has been shaken from the foundation. You, who did great things in the past, do not love Fenerbahçe today. You love yourself more than Fenerbahçe. The really sad thing is that your hatred for Ali Koç has come before your love for Fenerbahçe. I love Fenerbahçe very much. I am trying to do my best, I am putting in effort. You can never question my intention. Will one of the decisions you make tomorrow be a profile that is almost fighting with Fenerbahçe, complaining about Fenerbahçe, or will you be on the side of a candidate for Fenerbahçe? The picture is very clear." "GET READY, WE ARE EMBARKING ON A BRAND NEW JOURNEY ON MONDAY" Stating that he can do anything for the interests of Fenerbahçe, Koç said, "Let's join forces as much as we can. Let you also have a contribution in this journey for this community to reach the place it deserves. I promise you I will not go into any subject from the past.

The community needs this. Neither Aziz Yıldırım nor Ali Koç can fight the anti-Fenerbahçe lobby that has been stuck like a cancer virus for 20 years with their own management. When two people who have been presidents here for 26 years are in this situation, the community also separates from the root.

I am ready to do anything to fix this, I am ready to swallow everything. As long as Fenerbahçe benefits. Long live Fenerbahçe, the greatest Fenerbahçe, it's good that we are Fenerbahçe. Get ready, we are embarking on a brand new journey on Monday" he concluded his words. While the stands were chanting at the end of President Koç's statements, the first day of the congress was completed. ELECTION WILL BE HELD TOMORROW In the Ordinary Elective General Assembly, the presidential election will be held tomorrow in a total of 47 ballot boxes. The voting process will start at 10.00 and end at 17.00. In the congress, Ali Koç will be on the yellow ballot and Aziz Yıldırım will be on the white ballot among the presidential candidates.
