If you guys think that Riza has a magic wand and this team will become great overnight, and that DelBosque was the problem..Man we have an issue!
I dont think that Riza is a magician. Not at all, but i have not seen any progress of the team the last 6 months! Do you really think that Galatasaray is better managed by their board? Their players have not even got their salaries in 5 months, but Hagi(a unexperienced manager IMO) managed to end the first half 10 points in front of us. And even if you put in those 8 points that were stolen from us, hes team is still in the cup and 2 points in front of us. And honestly do you thing Trabzon, Gala, Fener or some of the stronger anatolian teams would fail in our UEFA group? Still, we are conceding goals like we did in our first or second game, no improvement at all.

The problem is that since 2002, we've been witnessing an erosion of values, Besiktas is no longer what it used to be. In the days of Seba, Gordon Milne was given a YEAR to get his act together. He was unsuccessful in his first year, but look at what happened afterwards. We won championship upon championship...
That erousion started earlier, Rasim Kara was sacked after a year despite that the team came second, compared with our position now he was successfull! And keeping a coach who just cant deliver the goods is not allways a good think, just look at Hollier(spelling?) at Liverpool, he costed them couple of years....

Bilgili left last year beause shit was hitting the fan. He was unable to
a) Protect Besiktas' rights against the TFF and the MHK (and we all know how they were trampled upon by the Turkish refs)
b) was involved in some wierd behind closed doors bargains, which we'll never know about because the allegations will never see the light of day.
So he used the cursing of fans as an excuse, whereas it was this same group (the Bilgili group) that hadencouraged fans to curse at Seba.
True!

I'll say it once.
We may be witnessing one of the worst times in our history, BUT we CANNOT ALLOW THE CLUB TO TURN INTO a playground!
THe administration bought a whackload of players, for what? If they weren't going to stick by DelBosque, and if they didn't have a long term plan, what the hell were they doing?
Yilmaz they did it becouse they were forced to. And also add the fact that they were inexperienced, It was their first months. Just remember how much S. Bilgili ****ed up in his first years. We should have much more patiance with the board compared to coaches IMO.

This is not the way to run a football club.
And what saddens me is that our fanbase has become more viscious than ever before in our history. It used to be, that we were patient, now we want immediate success and are ready to gobble up anyone in our way.
Yilmaz, i dont mind being patiance, but you need right players for that, if avarage age of our first eleven were 22-23, i would not say a word. But for gods sake what kind of patience do we need when players like Emre, Ibranim U., M.Dogan, Okan B., Tumer, Sergen, Juanfran, Ahmet Hassan plays in the first eleven, when are they going to play proparly? When they are 35? If this year was a year of "investment" of young players, i would at least have hope for the future, but what did Del Bosque? He just send all the younger players abroad, and he did not give chance to players like Serdar Ö., and who stayed....Kaan Dobra

But for a club to run well, it has to have the correct management, the right kind of atmosphere, and the right people~!
If you have Jerks like Reha Muhtar in th administration, If your most valuable foreigner Ronaldo is being disrespected and belittled, if the players have no management to go to (Tayfur is not a manager, he's a player), then how do you expect success?
All these factors need to come together for success...But the administration is too busy trying to get into a sidik yarisi and show off transfers.
Yeah, the board have to restrain it selv in these issues.

And what saddens me the most is that since Seba, our fanbase has changed, we no longer hold the same values that made this club great in high esteem. We prefer a president with money (Demiroren) to someone who could really work hard for this club...
Riza is a good choice...But the wrong time...
And to top it all off, if he doesn't succeed I know how he'll be booed by the same fans who are currently busy celebrating his appointment.
We need to change our approach and our logic before anything else.. NOT a coach or players!
We need couple of new players you have said that several times here bro, we need a new approach by the board, and IMO we definetly needed someone else than Del Bosque, i hope that Riza can pull things togheter.
