Fenerbahçe President Ali Koç points to April 2! 'The most sensible decision...'

Fenerbahçe President Ali Koç made statements regarding the agenda at the club's High Council Meeting.

Ali Koç's statements are as follows:

"We are in the midst of organized evil. We are trying to compete in an environment where justice is not established. Fenerbahçe is not playing the victim or anything. Hopefully, we will ensure the necessary participation at the meeting on April 2 and make the most sensible decision or decisions together. This is our goal.

"THERE ARE TWO EXTREMES"

There are two extremes: One is to do nothing, which, if you ask me, is the worst. The other extreme is to withdraw from the league or suspend football activities for a while. There are various issues and alternatives between these two extremes. As we consult with people, even newer ideas emerge.

We met with our sponsors, asked them if they would continue, and received their responses in writing. Some of our sponsors even said they wanted to contribute more. We met with the Capital Markets Board (SPK) and Ziraat Bank. Tomorrow, we will discuss this issue with our players and technical staff at Samandıra. Together, we will make the most sensible decision."

"HE SENT A MESSAGE SAYING 'YOU CAN WITHDRAW FROM THE PITCH, THE AUTHORITY IS YOURS'"

While watching the match on television, it was clear what was going to happen. When we were leading 2-0 in the match, I sent a message to the coach saying, "You can withdraw from the pitch, the authority is yours." The fact that I had to send such a message to our head coach while we were leading 2-0 in a match and fighting for the championship is one of the most important examples of the disgrace that Turkish football has reached.

The real fights are happening in the tunnel. We cannot access the tunnel footage. There are cameras that are all connected to the TFF, but we cannot access these images.

"THEY ARE GOING TO IMPOSE PENALTIES"

Referrals were not made. Why weren't they? We are hearing rumors that our players will be penalized. They say our players used extra force. They say the players should have run away. If they had run away, our players would not have had to use extra force. They are going to penalize our players; I hope they do not, for the sake of their own interests."
