The first task of the new Ankaragucu management tonight was to terminate the contracts of Manager Yilmaz Ozlem and his assistant Taner Ocal. Both were appointed in the summer after Hakan Kutlu resigned from his role at the club. After only one win and the club sitting bottom of the league, new President Atilla Suslu has made the decision to sack the pair.
The decision will be unpopular with the fans and players especially with Yilmaz Ozlem being an ex fans favourite during his playing career at the club. Mustafa Kaplan has been tipped for the vacant managers position but what the new President must realise is that even Alex Ferguson would face the impossible task of saving Ankaragucu. Its matters off the field that need to be sorted.
News on twitter also saying Hakan Kutlu could return and there will be a press conference on Tuesday. Thank you Yilmaz Ozlem and Taner Ocal for your efforts, you deserved better than that.
Yes yes and yes !
ReplyDeleteYilmaz is of the same ilk as Hakan Kutlu, ie, his heart is in the Club.
I'm not qualified to assess Yilmaz's coaching credentials, but with the Club in this state of crisis, surely it would have been a sound management decision to keep someone like Yilmaz who knows the ins and outs of the Club and talks the same language as the players ?
I'm trying very hard not to be disillusioned, but it is very difficult at times like these.
Who's next to fill the hot seat ? Please don't say ....... Pat Fenlon !!!!
Ha ha, nice one Jimmy boy!
ReplyDeleteHibs need Celtic to go as far as they can in Champions Lge to stay on top of the pile.I would expect the Hoops to be more concentrated on the SPL once they are out of Europe.
