Trabzonspor Holds Press Conference with Politicians! Statements Contrary to Spirit of Football!
Trabzonspor Club President Ertuğrul Doğan and board members made a statement regarding the events at the Trabzonspor vs. Fenerbahçe match, accompanied by politicians.
In recent years, Trabzonspor Club, striving to exist in the Turkish Super League by involving politics in football, held a press conference with the following politicians:
AK Party Trabzon Member of Parliament Yılmaz Büyükaydın
CHP Trabzon Member of Parliament Sibel Suiçmez
İYİ Party Trabzon Member of Parliament Yavuz Aydın
AK Party Trabzon Mayor Ahmet Metin Genç
AK Party Ortahisar Municipality Mayor Candidate Ergin Aydın
CHP Ortahisar Municipality Mayor Candidate Ahmet Kaya
Key points from the statements made by Trabzonspor President, board members, and the politicians accompanying them at the press conference are as follows:
“After provoking the fans to this extent, you should have celebrated in the dressing room after the match.”
“How would we be held accountable if something happened to the fans who entered the field?”
“We learned that one of our fans was arrested. In which city of Turkey has someone who entered the field without being involved in any assault been arrested before? You talk about justice, where is justice in this?”
“For Trabzon locals, football is a stance. Were there more incidents on the field when we were 2-0 behind? When it became 2-2, objects were thrown onto the field. There is something else going on here. The opposing team surely came here to get a 3-0 win by default.”
