Fenerbahçe President Ali Koç made striking statements regarding the recent calls for resignation directed at the management during a press conference held in Kadıköy.

"IF THE FANS WANT, NO ONE CAN STAND IN FRONT"

Ali Koç's statements on the matter are as follows;

This year, in some matches we played, despite our departure last year, during the last match, let alone official matches, while everything was going well this year, during a friendly match against Zenit, even while we were leading 2-1, the reactions from our fans rose from the stands. We understand these grievances to a certain extent. We appreciate it to a certain extent. The feelings, expectations, beliefs, and support of our fans are the sole source of motivation and strength for Fenerbahçe both on and off the field. However, the balances have changed. Think of this season as a football match. The team entered the second half losing 2-1, and there is a whole second half left. Is it wise to support the team as they come out for the second half, or to protest and pull them down? There are still 45 minutes left in the match. There is a half and 1 match left until the end of the season. How many examples are there of us coming back from 8-10 points to become champions? But belief is necessary. Success does not come in this negative environment. If the Fenerbahçe fans want, no one can stand in front of them.

"PLAYERS FEEL IT TO THE CORE"

We have reached a point where we are in a state of mind to react to Tadic, who has contributed 14 goals with 7 goals and 7 assists in 17 matches this season, has not missed a match, and has played 83 matches with 24 goals and 27 assists. Who is this beneficial for? In Samandıra, our players are asking why you can't stop this... We experienced it during Mesut Özil's time. Even a single player does not want to receive reactions. They feel it to the core. They are asking us why this was not prevented. I want our community to think about the damage this situation is causing to the team.

"TELL US WHAT YOU WANT"

Tell us what you want before and after the match, but I ask our community to support all our athletes who wear that badge. They should weigh the reactions they express for Fenerbahçe in their consciences. Support and patience until the end of the season. Whether to give or not is the fans' decision. The fans are the host, we are the passengers. The hosts will decide. What kind of environment do they want in their own homes... Are we going to turn Kadıköy, which we call our temple, into an away game for our team, or are we going to give infinite support?

"HOW MUCH HAVE YOU PROTECTED OUR TEAM'S RIGHTS?"

There is a group saying that the management cannot protect our rights. How much do you protect our team's rights in the stands? While in some stands we cannot even say that the referee made a mistake, how much unified reaction can be given in our stands? Are we not aware that we do not have the spirit of the fans who turn matches around and win? Are you aware that they are trying to destroy our Fenerbahçe from the inside, which they could not break from the outside with all that power? Today it is done to this president, tomorrow it will be done to another president. We have seen what the change of president has cost in some clubs.

"IS IT POSSIBLE IN THIS ENVIRONMENT?"

There is a very active and strong mentality trying to sever the bond between our fans, our coach, and our team. On July 3rd, do you not see that some so-called media members within our community, who target us, are directing our fan groups? In short, we need to solve this issue. No success will come in such a negative environment. We will continue to believe, work, fight, and struggle. We believe in our coach and our team. Sometimes you may not be satisfied with the football being played, and sometimes we are not either. Is the dominant football that we all want possible in this environment?

"THE ONLY THING OUR ATHLETES EXPECT IS SINCERE SUPPORT"

The only thing our athletes expect is sincere support. Whatever you say is your right, we do not interfere. We live in such perceptions that since I came, this is my third term with my friends, we have never engaged in stand engineering. They say we are canceling the season tickets, look at the perception. A total of 62 season tickets have been canceled this season, 49 of them are on the black market, and there are teams working hard for this. These people are teams negotiating with our team. There are cancellations due to death, relocation, change of residence, and dissatisfaction with the place. There are 4 cancellations. One person urinated on a fan. Another caused a fight. The third threw foreign objects onto the field. The last one was a person who caused a commotion, saying let’s raid Samandıra, let’s raid the club, let’s beat the players. One person. We are in a community ready to buy so many lies and slanders that these are gaining traction.
