If this is true, then immediately FenerbahFenerbahçe Sports Club shouldpublish the list... Fear has overcome you; may those who fear you be just like you!

With the money I wonfrom the lawsuit from Nef maybe I'll buy a house... At leastyou can explain where the money comes from this time.you can explain this time.

Immoral people trying to lecture others on morality trytrying to create a climate of fear they aretrying. Since 2011, they have not left Fenerbahçe alone.You have done everything to Fenerbahçe. There is no place you haven't complained to. You want people not to criticize you, you want people not to point out your mistakes.You are trying to create a climate of fear.You are shining, may those who fear you be like you.
