Against Haifa we got into more situations than PSG

After Shironi Kiryat Shmona lost to Hapoel Tel Aviv and slipped below the red line in the Premier League table, owner Izzy Sharetzky informed the mayor that he would leave at the end of the season. Tonight (Monday) he talked about this on Israel’s sports program on 102FM.

Good evening Izzy Sheretzky.
“Good evening everyone”.

Is this your last year in Kiryat Shmona?
“I issued a letter to the mayor, I told him that I have an appeal to the Supreme Court on the income tax for the amount of NIS 25 million. If I lose the trial I will pay and leave the club, if I win I will stay. Prospects? If justice is done, I will win and stay in the team.”

This is your life’s work, you have an Israel Award for everything you do in the city.
“The hospital and dental clinic will remain, the school will remain, my support for the city continues. I will leave football by chance and lose.”

Was it right to bring Menachem Koretsky instead of Slobodan Drapich?
“What is he guilty of? We didn’t lose yesterday. The referee knocked us out, it’s not a loss. Against Haifa we reached more situations than Paris who gave them seven reached. I will not fire Menachem Koretsky, we will see what happens in court and then we will know. I hope they will cancel the appeal from the top and we will move to the district. Koretsky’s position is stable and firm. What is his fault that the referee takes out a player just for nothing and gives a penalty just for nothing? He plays with the most strikers in the country. We agreed that he will be offensive when he trains at the club, the defenders attack, two strikers, he is very offensive.”

If you lose 5 games, will he stay?
“We won’t lose, but he will stay.”

There are soon elections for the chairman of the association, are you on the side of Shino Zoertz or Oren Hasson?
“I brought Shino to football, I really like him. Three months ago I told Hassan that I would vote for him because he brought an Israeli coach to the national team, I promised him. A friend of mine changed, I explained to him that I promised Oren and he understood it. Change things in the team? It’s the first time I’ve seen results in everything related to national teams.”

But what is happening here in football, the manager and the association do not care?
“The manager is not related. I suggested that they do two or two years, but they don’t want that much.”

Do you understand Alona fighting for Oren Hason?
“I’m voting for the one I committed to, I don’t know about Alona. I said my opinion. I really like Alon Hazan as a person and as a coach. He is humble, hope he succeeds. Glad they appointed him.”
