I Am the Winner, Show Some Respect!/ Pirouz's Harsh Remarks: You Are Accountable for People's Rights!
Pirouz Ghorbani's press conference after Aluminium's loss to Fajr turned into a harsh criticism of Shiraz club management and complaints over unpaid dues.
According to "Varzesh Se", one of the most important events of this summer's transfers is Pirouz Ghorbani's separation from Fajr; What happened after a lot of arguments and conflicting news from Fajr Club finally happened. Pirouz went to Arak and Fajr chose Rasul Khatibi as his successor after a long delay. A selection whose life ended after seven games.
The managers of Fajr changed the team's bench once again and hired Mehdi Rajabzadeh. The one who experienced his first experience on the bench of the Premier League in a dramatic atmosphere against Pirouz Ghorbani, the former head coach and beloved by Shirazi fans.
This popularity was also seen on the platforms before the start of the match, so that the question can be raised that when we will see him return to Fajr, considering the good relationship of the victim with the fans. The question that was raised in the press conference after the game, but the winner's answer was to prefer the frank and open complaints to the managers of Fajr club.
Pirouz's initial speech was so short:
"The game did not go the way we wanted and we lost. The most important thing is to see how our team will react to this defeat. Because this was our first loss and this reaction can determine many things for the continuation of the league."
The first question that was asked to him: Today, they chanted the emperor's victory slogan on the platforms. why did you go
Pirouz answered: "I did not hear such a thing. What happened? Well, I am a football coach and everything I want to do must be within the framework of football. I have nothing else to say."
Pirouz's answer to the next question was more interesting: this Fajr is partly your heritage. If we want to discuss emotional issues, did you really want to win this game in Shiraz or not?
"One hundred percent," Pirouz said. What is this word? It was not my heritage either. I am a football coach and I have a bag on my shoulder. This year I am in Arak and maybe next year I will be somewhere else. Regarding whether I expect the audience to cheer me or not, I must say that I am not really in these phases at all and I do not think about these issues. I try to do my job as correctly as possible, which I think I did in Shiraz. Now, the respected officials of the club, who were looking for me door-to-door before the game to celebrate, it would have been better if they would have shown themselves at that time when we were knocking ourselves door to door to pay the technical staff, players and agents."
The continuation of his speech was a complaint about Khalaf's financial promises and Fajr managers. Of course, with harsh criticisms:
"They are very sensitive to these interviews and friends don't like anyone to talk about them; But I do not despise anyone. As we have been taught since childhood, the right belongs to the human being. Now the rights of the people are on your shoulders and I don't know how you can easily go and give interviews for yourself, I don't understand at all and I'm really sorry.
What we did a long time ago and how much the value of money has decreased now. Go see how much our staff contract was! Since the war started, they have not given a single rial to these children. As I am talking to you right now, I think the value of money back then has probably increased sixfold. You really like to talk about Haq Al-Nas and everything, so now Haq Al-Nas is on your neck; I don't know what you really want to do and it doesn't matter to me at all, but I would like to say that I wish they would have shown themselves at that time when we put ourselves on fire to pay the staff and players, and our friends promised two more weeks and these two weeks reached almost eight months! "Otherwise, I proudly worked in Fajr for two years and enjoyed working in this team."
The next emphasis of the head coach of Aluminum was also interesting:
"I am the winner; The same person who brought the team to the Premier League. I am the winner that you gave me so many titles and so on. I don't need any encouragement at all, but at least keep the respects. I had two good years, but I leave Shiraz with a bad memory. No matter what you do, Pirouz Ghorbani is a coach who will be present in Iranian football now, and both my personality and my work style are clear.
Now my team has closed doors in two games and the coach's art is to be able to open these closed doors or not, which I and my staff have. These young people are going back to their good days and football cannot be judged by one game. If I'm not mistaken, we have 34 weeks to go, and the team will certainly return to its good form during this time.
I am not an excuse person; Maybe I won't say too many things and try to focus on my work. Naturally, my team has had problems; We tied the previous game at home and lost this game as well. We have to go and find the problems. I repeat, we work so hard and spend time to solve these problems, because I believe in these kids and they are really working hard. I will open this closed door anyway."
A reporter made an interesting claim: They had printed dollars with your photo to fall on your head, but they didn't. I have his photo.
Pirouz's answer was accompanied by a smile and surprise, followed by heavy sarcasm from the head coach of Aluminum: "Really? (Laughing) It's not worth talking about why I went. Bygones are bygones, but I really regret this question. I mean, I was really sad for their simplicity."
The most clichéd question from the victim had a long answer: What is the probability of your return to Shiraz?
Aluminum Arak head coach said: "Shiraz is a very good city and I really enjoyed working there. Why don't I come back? After all, football has its own conditions and must be prepared. Mr. Pirovani always said that it is like going to war with a shotgun. You must provide the conditions. To say that the team belongs to Shahid and this is an honor, yes, it is a complete honor. But on the field, this honor will not help you anymore. On the ground, the facilities you have at your disposal will help you.
I say for your sake. Those days, I spoke my words and said on two occasions that I am an expensive coach, I meant the value of my work. Now friends say (incomplete sentence) .. unfortunately our society (incomplete sentence) .. let it go! Once again, I told my friends to come and help the team, but because I myself followed the situation of the staff and players and interviewed them, I said that an appeal should be made. The story of my separation was about money; They came and said did you go to the money yesterday? You are very knowledgeable! You are really hot. I can be sad, but I really feel sorry for the simplicity of society. I am proud of every memory I have of Shiraz and I always return to Shiraz for its good people and good city.
I don't need encouragement; I have been encouraged since childhood, but don't be ignorant either. Sir, don't forget who I was and what I did. Don't you remember how you came in the seventh week of the first division league and chanted "Shame on you", then suddenly you made me an emperor, a king and a ruler? I didn't faint for that cheering, nor for the slogans they gave."
This detailed press conference ended as follows:
"As a coach, I am obliged to do my duty, but naturally the facts must be known. In my opinion, Pirouz Ghorbani and his staff did not deserve this. I still owe this club. I have done work and I have to give the right to women and children. Now, if friends want to be upset, these issues are of no value to me."
