Let’s agree on this once and for all…
Neither Servet Yardimci, nor Erdal Alkış, nor İsmail Uyanık, nor İbrahim Hacıosmanoğlu. Candidate for TFF President… His statements are a statement of intent.
Candidacy is a legal status. These names are now THEY ARE CANDIDATES…
To be a candidate They have to get the signatures of 60 of the 325 delegates. His criterion is that 1 delegate can vote for 1 candidate. Delegate Ahmet cannot sign one more signature for candidate Veli than he gave for candidate Mehmet.
The next 2 months are a very long time before the TFF election, which can be held on June 27 at the earliest, even through signature collection. Who is a candidate and who is not? These very long debates end in a draw.
If, despite all his stubbornness, he surprises and goes to the polls with a very early election, Mr. Büyükekşi will be doing a serious service to football. How much do we see this? 10% is very optimistic!
Anyway…
What is today’s candidate geography for the election to be held on July 18 at the latest? SERVET YARDIMCI, who has the status of a candidate, is the most visible name. He is the most talked about name at the moment with his strength in UEFA relations, his acceptance by some clubs, his past experience and his early notification.
Do not discard the information reported by Ahmet Selim Kul in Habertürk on March 27; MAHMUT ÖZGENER‘s name is still talked about in the “high” backstage. I think Özgener’s attitude is “I WILL ENTER THE BOX ALONE” on its way. I know you want this precious seat. I don’t know if he will enter the elections or compete at the ballot box.
On the other hand, Mehmet Büyükekşi keeps the candidacy issue hot in the air. He is looking at two things. Either to the “decision makers” or to the outcome of Euro24… In my opinion, the public does not care much about his candidacy, as he is a “calculating” person, as in everything else.
Where are we doing with famous signatures? This weekend is very critical! The information obtained by Habertürk Spor indicates that at least 130-140 signatures will be legally ready this weekend. As of today, reaching the sufficient number in the evening hours is on the agenda. It is known that around 10 Super League clubs signed him. More than 35 signatures came from the 2nd and 3rd Leagues. Including civilian delegates, the number will reach 130-140 on Monday at the latest.
Mehmet Büyükekşi is pushing this process just to become president of EURO24. There are also fears that Karagümrük President Süleyman Hurma will make the signatures “a matter of law”, as he said in the TRANSITION GAME on Monday night.
Büyükekşi, who put Turkish football in this situation and ensured that the chaos environment continues, just to take part in the Euro24 protocol, will re-read the interview he gave to 2 newspapers today in the coming days.
Who knows, maybe he’ll say he DIDN’T DO IT. Was it worth it?
