Beşiktaş President Serdal Adalı Spoke on Unity and Solidarity

Beşiktaş Club President Serdal Adalı said that success will be inevitable when the black-white community is in unity and solidarity.

At the extraordinary general assembly meeting held at Sinan Erdem Sports Hall, Adalı was elected president for the third time, receiving 3815 of 3910 votes.

Adalı, who started his speech by thanking the black and white community, said, "Another election is behind us. I thank our community for their trust in us and their support. I hope we will be worthy of their trust and support. We have a much more successful and bright Beşiktaş ahead of us. With God's permission, we will reach our goals by working together. I always say to the Beşiktaş community that when there is unity and solidarity, the success of Beşiktaş is inevitable. I thank each and every one of them for their interest and their support for their votes." "I thank them. I can say that they will see a much better Beşiktaş. We have another season ahead of us. Hopefully, when we come to the end of our term, we will appear before the community again having achieved everything we set out to do." he said.

Calling for "support" from Beşiktaş fans, Adalı said, "They should continue their support. Their support already fuels the team in home matches. I would like to thank each and every one of them, may they continue to support us. Things have good days and bad days. As long as they continue to believe in us, believe in this football community, believe in the technical staff. I hope we will see together that the result is good." he said.

Serdal Adalı continued his speech with the following words:

"TFF probably had an extraordinary meeting on Tuesday. We will wait until Tuesday. There is no point in saying anything now. But I wish we had not made the warnings that I have been saying and made since a year ago and we would not have seen this result. This is something I expected. Unfortunately, as long as you force something that is bad, it gets worse. I always say that this is not only for Beşiktaş, every time I speak; I tried to explain the thoughts of Turkish football and other teams and their experiences. "Hopefully, good decisions will be made for Turkish football. Turkish people have no other taste, they will continue to watch the matches with pleasure. Our state, government, ministers and ministry are doing what is necessary in this regard. We will wait patiently and see the results."

Stating that he had a phone conversation with the President of the Clubs Association, Ertuğrul Doğan, regarding the agenda, Adalı said, "Some of our club presidents were not in Istanbul, they were abroad. I guess we will make another phone call tomorrow morning. It may be before Tuesday, it may be after. As the Clubs Association, we will bring the opinions and thoughts of all our clubs on this issue to a point and make that decision." he said.

"Let's take a break if necessary. 1 week, 10 days, 2 weeks, whatever... The leagues should not start until the cleaning operation that has started is completed." The president of the black-white club concluded his speech as follows:

"We have referees who do their job well, we need to think about their psychology. How will they function with this psychology, no matter how much they want to after so many incidents? I said it the other day, if necessary, it will start after 1 week, 2 weeks later. We won't lose anything, but after the cleaning is done, Turkish football will gain a lot. That's why I don't think it's right to rush it too much. I don't think it's too rushed either."
