Trabzonspor issues 'We must not give opportunity to provocations' statement hours before Galatasaray match

Trabzonspor, which will host Galatasaray today in the 28th week of the Trendyol Super League, has released a notable statement to its fans just hours before the critical match.

The statement from the club is as follows:

"Great Trabzonspor Fans,

We sincerely thank you, our valued fans, for the tremendous interest you have shown in the Galatasaray match we will play at home today. This sense of belonging has once again reminded us what a great family we are.

Your loyalty, which has never left the team alone for a moment—whether at Papara Park or away games—traveling kilometers regardless of snow, winter, or rain, and standing by your passion under all conditions, is our club's most precious treasure.

This great community has never reached where it is today by drawing strength from others or walking in the shadow of others. It has written its own story with sweat, persistence, and faith.

It has been the honor and pride of a city that emerged from the heart of Anatolia to achieve the impossible.

Our path has been the path of labor and sweat, rather than the reign of money.

In this community, which has a pristine history, those who have honored our glorious jersey have always been held in high esteem, and our paths have always parted with those who deviated from these principles. This stance is exactly what makes us who we are!

We know that today in the stadium, you will raise the voice of labor and honor; you will remind the world again of who we are, where we come from, and what we represent.

You will make our Head Coach Fatih Tekke and our players feel that unique support and that driving force to the fullest.

That Trabzonspor spirit, which does not fall silent for a moment during the 90 minutes, defends with its team, attacks with its team, and lifts its team up, will be in the stands.

However, while doing all this, we must not stray from common sense, and we must not give an opportunity to those who want to cast a shadow over the greatness of our community through provocation.

What makes us great is our nobility, which exists alongside our stance. Today, our fans will show that stance in the stands with their noble attitude, and our team will show it on the pitch with their faithful struggle.

All together, shoulder to shoulder.

Trabzonspor Club"
