“For a long time, Kim Pan -gon has been demanding hard based on concrete cases and logic for Kim Pan -gon’s tactical incompetence, communication, and fans, but the club regards fans’ voices as’ some opinion ‘, and they have not taken seriously because they have no clear numbers, and prove the desperation of fans by statistics In the end, it is a testimony that we consider it as a simple consumable. ”
“Kim Pan-gon has already been granted enough opportunities, and the result is clearly revealed by the decline in performance, the league rankings, the ACLE-Korea Cup-Club World Cup, and the collapse of the fan trust. It’s difficult. “
The company cited the last meeting remarks and criticized, “In particular, Kim Kwang -guk expressed his fans as ‘people who watch football with hobbies’ and clearly revealed the emotional and organizational distance between the club and the fans.
“I want you to realize what the voices of fans mean. Ulsan HD exists because there are fans. Fans without fans can exist, and clubs that do not respect fans are not eligible to support the fans.”
