Dear Beşiktaş Fans,
We are at the threshold of a very long and difficult league marathon. But our team is a championship candidate as always. I strongly believe that this young and high quality team of ours will successfully overcome its ongoing problems and start performing as real contender at all available fronts.
While we work day and night to help Beşiktaş attain its goals, some familiar circles who do not want us to succeed and feed on its temporary shortcomings have been taking the center stage once again.
As I have often made public in the past, we have to stand firm against this unjust aggression which simply wants to achieve higher ratings by wearing us down. However they tend to ignore the fact that if we are united as a one large family none of them will be able to stand in our way.
Let us not forget that Beşiktaş, born as a small community team more than 104 years ago, has now become a well-known world brand today. Therefore we must defend and cherish our unity and solidarity at all costs. This philosophy should provide guidance to all Beşiktaş Fans well into the future.
Dear Beşiktaş Fans,
Our planned administrative work and activities in other branches besides football are being carried out vigorously with utmost seriousness. Our BJK Süleyman Seba Project at Fulya Facilities is now gaining full speed. This project, set to be completed next year, will not only provide Beşiktaş a constant fixed income but will also put us financially ahead of all other competing teams.
The change management process carried out in our Eagle Nest stores that supply our licensed goods have already started to bear its fruits. We must always keep in mind that these stores with large stock of Beşiktaş items are a valuable source of income for our Club. There have been new additions to our sports schools where the future stars are being raised on a continuous basis. Our Handball Team, which we are always proud of, has already brought the prestigious GSGM Cup to our museum. Our dear Kübra Öztürk has won the European Chess Championship second year in a row. I sincerely congratulate our Handball Team and Kübra Öztürk on their great achievements. Our renewed Men’s and Women’s Basketball and Volleyball teams will step on the court this month with the aim of carrying Beşiktaş’s name to the top spots.
I expect you to support these promising teams in their road to becoming champions sincerely and enthusiastically all year around.
With my deepest love and respect,
Yıldırım  Demirören
BEŞİKTAŞ JK. Chairman of the Board
