Fenerbahçe Club Basketball Branch Manager Cem Ciritçi harshly criticized the disruptions in the Final Four organization. Stating that there were issues in the organization, Ciritçi said, "We’ve been trying to load tickets for days but get no response. Families, buses, and fans are waiting outside. They’ve lost control. We’re letting fans in slowly, but they’re separating family members, sending children and mothers to different places. It’s an incredibly poor organization."
Fenerbahçe Club Basketball Branch Manager Cem Ciritçi reacted with harsh words to the disruptions experienced during the Final Four organization held in Greece.
''THE WORST FINAL FOUR ORGANIZATION''
Stating that fans faced major problems during the entry process to the hall, Ciritçi criticized the EuroLeague management, saying, "Unfortunately, this is the worst Final Four organization I have seen in recent years. We have been negotiating with officials for days regarding the loading of tickets. They are not producing any solutions. Our family section is there, but it contains Olympiakos fans. Our fans are outside. It is an incredibly messed up organization. We are in contact with officials every minute. Our 10 managers are showing the lists to the officials. They have lost control. They cannot move forward one step. We are slowly getting the fans in. We said, 'Let us give the list, let the fans in accordingly.' I don't know, EuroLeague has failed today!"
''OUR FANS CANNOT ENTER''
Continuing his words, Cem Ciritçi said, "There are also problems at police checkpoints. They are keeping the fans waiting there. Families have come, they are separating the child from the mother. It is an incredibly bad organization. Our fans cannot enter. How can such nonsense exist, there are 45 minutes until the match. There is no situation like postponing the match; the match will be played. Sooner or later, our fans will enter. One way or another, these fans will get in. We will fight until the end in this match. Both teams are strong. We prepared well. We lived for this moment all season. Hopefully, we will get the desired result here and wait for our opponent on Sunday."
