A day after announcing their resignation from Beitar Jerusalem due to the bad results that left the team in the lower playoffs, Slobodan Drapic and Shai Barda sent a farewell letter to the team’s players from the capital today (Sunday).

Shai Barda He wrote: “Dear players. It is important that you take each one of the message personally. I did not have time to share with you our departure yesterday. We came with record motivation to the club we love so much to produce success and take off with the club. I have always tried to do my best in video calls, setting goals, giving you the knowledge and making you better players. Sometimes you try to do everything right and good for the club and for you and things work out less, and this is the moment to take responsibility because in the rest of Jerusalem it is more important than all of us. I love you, and wish you a lot of success. “

Drapich He wrote: “Dear players, I had to send a message because due to the circumstances we could not say goodbye in person. I decided to quit my job at the club – the reasons are known to you. Of course I would like to wrap up the season at the end and let’s look back with satisfaction. At the same time, things did not always go as we wanted and hoped. It is said that success has many fathers and failure is an orphan. I do not agree with this statement so I took responsibility. We had countless conversations – both individual and group, surely you felt that what was said was true and honest – for better or worse. Look back at each of you, see how you can take the things said and the things we worked on together to upgrade and lead Betar Jerusalem to better places and your career to the districts you dreamed of. From the lowest places we grow and grow stronger and from here you will be for each other and first and foremost for Betar Jerusalem. Good luck – and even now, as at the end of a meeting, I will end with “I love and appreciate you.”
