PLDC - In the recent board meeting of
Persepolis of Tehran, the club chairman, Akbar Ghamkhar commented on
various team matters and discussed the team problems in the Professional
League. He said, “Although I am satisfied with the recent results and the
matches played by the team and give full support to the technical staff,
the fact that the fans expect more attractive and successful matches from
the club after the spending of
such great finances on the club is a just objection.”
“There have also been various faults found with the gaining of merit by
the club and the methods of playing. There will be a joint meeting of the
club officials and the technical staff soon to discuss the matter.
Most of the worries of the club at present are about the Asian games. The
board of directors does not see the team technique and tactics as good
enough for taking part in the Asian games and gaining the championship
title.”
“According to our latest decisions the club’s youth, under-18 and under-16
team management will be handed over to foreign coaches with the aim of
improving the foundations of the club. This change will be affected from
next month.”
