I would like to touch on two different subjects.
The first one is upon an inquiry.
Turkish Volleyball has an incredible acceleration last years. Turkish Volleyball Federation has had several triumph since 1958 and celebrated 50th year with a magnificent ball last days. There were signatures of Presidents and Management Councils that have been on duty for 50 years under these triumph.
I want to call your attention to an inquiry in a volleyball site by this point. There is a contest for the Best President in 50 years. Nominees are Vahit Çolakoğlu, Mustafa Mut, Haluk Aykulu, Naci Bayamlıoğlu, Özcan Mutluğil, Teoman Yazgan, Hüsnü Can, Ahmet Gülüm, Erdoğan Aydın and Erol Ünal Karabıyık.
This kind of contest is not fair for me. All these people have contributions to volleyball. But we need to remember, old names are forgotten so easy. Also it is not good to add a dead person’s name in to the contest. Not only the dead person’s name, but also the name for 2 month presidentship could not be included to the inquiry.
Hope this inquiry which is broadcasted in a volleyball subservient person’s site would not be misunderstood and damage the medium.

About the second subject.
Nothing has been good in Türk Telekom that drew attention with the investments on hall sports recently. Composed squad can not provide the expected contribution for the success.
Just like something is always missing.
Directors can not watch the matches in comfort who made big transfers.
Natasa Mamadova, Maja Polyak, Taismariy Aguero, Olga Kubassevich. All of these players are stars and play for their national teams. There is an invincible squad appears when we think of Özlem, Bahar, Nilay, Ebru besides the other players. Hüseyin Doğanyüz is young but can not be the appropriate trainer. He could not resist so much and resigned after a few matches. A star is repalced him. Star was the trainer for this time. When USA National Team Trainer Lang Ping comes, alteration looks like began. Even though her name is Ping, it takes long to learn the team, league, Turkey and management intelligence.
Will these soceity of stars with the chief star ahead give the thing to the directors what they want? Or will these stars explode in the directors’ hands?
We will watch and see that …
