Ali Koç takes a swipe at Galatasaray! 'Accustomed to being made champions...'

Fenerbahçe President Ali Koç attended the opening ceremony of the Gelsenkirchen Fenerbahçe Supporters Association in Germany.

Speaking after the ceremony, Koç took a jab at Galatasaray.

Highlights from Ali Koç's remarks:

"You cannot explain what we have been through since July 3rd with sporting reasons. No one can explain what we have experienced for 10 years with sporting reasons."

"ACCUSTOMED TO BEING MADE CHAMPIONS"

"This year we are competing with a rival. We are competing against a team that is accustomed to being made champions. A referee was explaining on television the other day. In 1997, Beşiktaş was the leader. A ridiculous penalty was called in the last minute."

"THEY PLAY WITH ALL THEIR MIGHT AGAINST US"

"Which club faces this much speculation when they give their former players to another club? Our former athletes play with even more determination against us. A president mentioned what I did and said someone like that cannot be a president for us. In our club, a president who has taken the club to enforcement proceedings cannot be president again. Our fabric is different."

"THERE WERE THOSE WHO ATTACKED THE COACH, THE PLAYERS, AND US"

"Times and people change, but Fenerbahçe being a target does not. That is why we need to show a unity never seen before in history. Coach İsmail and his players have collected a point total unseen in our history. There was one draw, and there were attacks on the coach, the players, and us. Believe me, we are cutting off the branch we are sitting on. But if we become champions once, believe me, more will follow."
