May Letter


Dear Beşiktaş Fans,
As you all know, the 2008-09 Turkcell Super League will be concluded by the end of May. Since the two top contenders are entering the final weeks separated by only a point, we are treated to an exciting finish this season. Unfortunately, the comments made after each game by the losers, are not helping to ease of this mounting pressure. The endless series of unprovable scenarios put forth by these circles are blaming everyone but the team itself. These undesirable and  unsportsman-like speeches are casting a shadow over the integrity and credibility of our League. In order to protect the quality of our Turkcell Super League, which is rated among the best leagues in Europe, we have to act more responsibly and stop playing this childish blame game week in and week out.
As Beşiktaş Management, we hope all involved parties, including the organizers and referees of Turkish Football  Association along with the administrators, players and techical staff of the competing clubs as well as the fans and media will spare no effort in reaching a just conclusion, which will be regarded fair and square by all.   
Dear Beşiktaş Fans,
As the administrators of Beşiktaş, we would like remind you and the rest of Turkish football lovers once  again that we are determined to preserve the honesty and integrity of our league and take it to new heights, no matter how difficult it is; because we seriously want the Turkcell Super League set a benchmark for other European leagues on all aspects of football. Although we may face some challenges in our pursuit of both League and Cup titles, we will never resort to dirty tactics. I am sure, in these  pressure-filled times, Beşiktaş community will back us up all the way in our efforts, as it has done so many times before.
Despite our recent setbacks, the maturity and support shown by our fans deserve to be praised. However, it is also worthwhile mentioning that they only appreciate success earned through honest work and nothing else; we will do everything in our power to make them happy and proud at the end of this season. 
With my kindest regards,
Yıldırım Demirören
Board Chairman,Beşiktaş JK
