Beşiktaş President Ahmet Nur Çebi answered Güntekin Onay’s questions on the screens of the beIN Sports broadcaster. President Cebi addressed many issues ranging from the errors that mortgage the future of the clubs, the impossibility of diversifying the sources of income, from the debt restructuring agreement to the new approaches of the Club Association Foundation. The experienced footballer also shared his thoughts on the black and white team, the championship race and Sergen Yalçın.
‘Unity and solidarity are needed in the country’
“As president of the Club Association, I believe that I have a very important duty to guarantee unity and solidarity, albeit confidentially, as well as being obliged to represent the clubs. I also appreciate your show. Unity and solidarity are needed in the country. There are especially in all subjects, but we have a duty to provide this in our subject, football. ”
‘We have to give it to his superiors as a duty, his hobby’
“We cannot escape these. After all, I always say. The best part of football is the joy when it is played on the field. You can enjoy it for 5-10 minutes after it is finished. You joke around with your friends, but this is where you should stay and wait for next week to watch the game with enthusiasm. We need to get away from the hustle, rhetoric, and nasty attitude in between. Our fans will walk away from these things with the messages they will receive from us. We should enjoy being a fan of enjoying on the field and being a fan on the field. We have to give it to your superiors as a duty, fans. That is why club presidents have very important duties. ”
‘I am in favor of young referees’
” As a Club Association, we want to organize a workshop with people who have served as referees in the past. We want to present the ideas that we will bring here to the federation with a table that will be formed with the ideas that we will give. We are in a workshop plan as if it were better if the cons, the pros were like this. We want to do this in good faith and serve Turkish football. I suppose that we will carry out the workshop on this topic in the next few days, and we want to contribute the results to the federation. I am in favor of young referees, let the young do it until the old make a mistake. ”
‘It was discussed 50 years ago, referees’
” If a price must be paid; We cannot bear what the elderly do, we say that we are paying the price for the young. I do not know if it is very difficult for me to explain my problem in my statements about the referees. Dear president of the federation; He says “Our referees are very good, we send referees abroad” but that is not my problem; If our referees leave, let them go, if they can come, let them. I said let’s do it especially in the derby. Our referees who went to the derby in the past were marked by the teams. When all the referees are announced, the fans beat them before playing. When I said foreign referee, I said it because of these pressures. It was discussed 50 years ago, the referees, it is still being discussed today. ”
‘They told me not to give negative messages, to keep complaining, to be positive …’
“When I arrived, I tried to explain the situation we were in to the community. I said that if the community is not with me, I cannot recover this situation. During this period, I was highly criticized. They said don’t give me negative messages, don’t complain all the time, be positive. I’m positive. In explaining these problems, I also express that this team can be the champion. There is no such thing as “I’ll be the champion, everything is fine, we have money.” I run the community. This community is not mine, I am part of it. Therefore, everyone should know and feel at least as much as I know and feel. But I never lost hope.
‘This is not true either, we are made to breathe’
“I know that the Beşiktaş community has not given up hope and should not. Although there are false and malicious voices coming from opposing voices, I am calling out to the valued members of the community and their valued supporters, cover your ears, just believe me. The day I leave, I will frankly confess what I did and what I could not do. So trust him and you will feel comfortable. Currently, there is a perception that the agreement of the Association of Banks solves all the problems. This is not true either, we are made to breathe. We were only given one chance; You are breathing, use your feet and walk the right path. If we don’t walk in the right direction, we will create bad days for our club. ”
‘Get your Scout right, find the right player’
“That is why I repeat; There are limits on the transfer, you shouldn’t expect too much from us. There is only one thing I would like you to ask for; Let them say: “Be in the account, be in the book, don’t spend the Beşiktaş penny, but at the same time raise young footballers, do your scouting right, find the right player.” I have a saying; “We have brought to our team footballers who play soccer 4 times more for a fee of 4.” When you look at this, everything is in it. We need 9 to 10 years to recover financially. In this process, the whole problem is not down, it is important to be able to lift the head of the plane up. This process will continue. ”
‘Your 1 million euros left in 10 days’
“You bring foreign footballers and he wants them to give him a salary in euros. If you are going to bring it, that is the price. If you had 10 million euros in salaries that you paid 10 days ago, now your 110 million euros have gone from them in 10 days. Generally, your income is expressed in Turkish lira. The editor is like that, you sell t-shirts, you buy tickets. The only foreign currency is the Champions League. God willing, God will grant this to us and our Beşiktaş will get a great income from here. We are dealing with this … ”
‘This championship will mean a lot as our competitors are valuable’
“You can put yourself in the mood for the championship, but I constantly warn everyone that you cannot declare yourself a champion. There are 11 games ahead, we will even play 12 games, including the cup. Then there are difficult days. Therein lies the burden of the pandemic. You are affected not only financially, but also physically and morally. The same goes for rival teams. They are also successful, their path is also open. They will fight with us. Luckily they exist. Without them, we cannot enjoy football. If we were champions without Fenerbahçe, Galatasaray, Trabzonspor and other teams, it would mean nothing. But this championship will mean a lot as our opponents are valuable. Especially in the last 1-2 years, we see that the teams from our Anatolian cities are also successful. Antalyaspor reached the final, the success of Alanyaspor and Rizespor … ”
‘That’s why I also enjoy Turkish football’
“Unfair competition is about to disappear. According to the rules, when you manage according to your income, if you received two artillery lire, Rizespor also received one lire. Previously, you were buying 10 lire, Rizespor (I give an example) 1 lire of artillery. That is why I also enjoy Turkish football. I also want the success of the Anatolian teams and respect for our rivals. I want Beşiktaş to be a champion in my heart. ”
‘It is a pleasure that Sergen Yalçın comes from the essence of Beşiktaş’
“He has been serving in Turkish football for many years as a coach. I have expressed my feelings by taking him to Beşiktaş and inviting him to do his duty months ago. It is precious and valuable to us. Coming from the essence of Beşiktaş is a different joy, she is soft, hard-working, intelligent and has a strong technique. So, the merits of my teacher are very important to me, Beşiktaş, and they really are at a high level. We believe that we will continue with him for many years to come. Many things come up about the contract, but it is not true. I’m calling the Beşiktaş fans; Let them never think of something like that in their minds and assume it doesn’t exist. I hope that Allah will give us the opportunity to remove the cup and cups with our teacher in the next period. It is not a club that changes teachers every minute, but if we can be a club that does not change for at least 10 years, and if we can achieve it with Professor Sergen. I also want to say that I will enjoy it as president. ”
‘You cannot make up the audience income in any other way’
“While our income doesn’t cover our expenses anyway, our current income has decreased by 1 in 3. We have to say that our income comes from ticket sales and lodging sales. Make up for this, I hope the pandemic ends very quickly because otherwise you cannot make up for the audience income. But the things you can fund in a way that can close that gap are streaming and endorsement income. You get your sponsor’s income from companies, and if you consider that they also suffer losses in this economy, there is still income from broadcasting. We need to have a very good relationship with our stations. We must also contribute to creating an environment in which they can win. ”
‘There are fans, there are fans!’
“A lot has been said about streaming revenue for days and months. Is it possible to admit that the station is not in a difficult situation in the conditions of the pandemic? On the one hand, you see the sales of decoders, the pirated transmissions, the prohibited transmissions… They must be avoided. Therefore, we took that step. Hopefully we will remove the pirated post and increase revenue from our publishers’ revenue streams and generate more revenue from there. I hope the pandemic ends quickly, while we have a request from the broadcaster that will increase revenue, we need to show attitudes and behaviors that support it. Rules, laws and laws are dissuasive. Here a meaning arises as follows; There are fans, there are followers. There is one fan who is truly devoted and devoted to his team and respects their sensitivity towards their achievements. On the other hand, there are fans here. This is not just a publisher, you buy scarves, you have a pirate, you sell T-shirts. ”
‘We’re suffering. How do we find these coins?
“The executives who turn many clubs like this wander the streets waving their arms. It is not around now, but we are suffering right now. How do we find these coins? How are we going to do it? These clubs are great values. They are values established before the Republic. We need to avoid the attitudes and behaviors that will cause the ruin of these clubs, which are the value of the nation of the country. ”
‘The Federation says I don’t register’
” The president of the Federation is right. If you try to overcome it, it will not be registered, with the conditions such as staying true to your budget with the transfer limits that have been set for you. There is an attitude to keep up with your income and expenses. That is why the Federation says that those who go beyond this do not register. If it goes other ways, the sports law is trying to ensure that these distinguished clubs can protect themselves with the record that this is the sanction. I also support this. ”
