Beşiktaş president Fikret Orman has revealed that he is against the one week Süper Lig suspension.
“We condemn the attack but I am not sure the one week suspension is the way to go about this, it in a way lets them win and could encourage similar attacks again but we have got to respect the decision of the union of clubs,” Orman was quoted as saying on Eurosport TR.
