Summary: The nerves of the owners of Betar Jerusalem Moshe celebrates during the game against Hapoel Haifa (Sport1)
The first round of last season.
Betar Jerusalem arrives for an away game against Maccabi Haifa, and Roni Levy decides that Liran Rotman will be at 11 and will play on the left wing. Before the game, the coach explains to the midfielder that he will have to accompany Ernest Mabuka. Of a few minutes.
Roni Levy starts to get upset and says to one of the staff members: "What is confusing his brain? Tell Rothman to join the warm-up."
During the game Rothman does not find himself and is replaced.
At the end, he explains to Roni Levy that he no longer understands what is wanted of him, because everyone tells him something different.
When you get to the locker room area, a celebrant arrives at Roni Levy and slaps him: "What is it? How did we look like this?".
Levy's answer?
"Keep giving tactical instructions to Rothman and we'll see where we go."
This story describes well the relationship between Levy and Celebrate throughout the year in which they collaborated.
Behind the scenes the relationship was very tense, but Yossi Benyon always made sure to calm the spirits.
If Benyon had not functioned to the standard of the mediator, Levy and Celebrate would not have held together a month.
The fact that he ended the season in Betar is almost inconceivable given the atmosphere that prevailed between the two. The unrest could be seen in Roni Levy's first training at Beit Vagan - one of the journalists asked him about the championship, told him that this was what the landlord expected, and replied: " I do not know what you're talking about.
It's a team that barely stayed in the league last year, it can't talk about a championship. "

Another difficulty that clouded the relationship between the two, as could be understood from the story of Rothman, was related to game endings.
After less good games, while Roni Levy was "hot" and nervous, Celebrate was also frustrated and used to ask questions or come up with complaints, which naturally increased the tension.
During one of the games towards the end of the season, he celebrated a conversation with the professional and managerial team in the coaching room at Teddy, and Roni Levy signaled to him with his hand: "Lower your voice, there are players here and they hear and understand everything."
But the bad blood between the two began even before Roni Levy made his way home and garden.
Benyon has already closed the terms with him, but the appointment has been delayed due to legal clauses in former coach Nir Klinger's contract.
While the appointment was delayed, Barak Bachar's name was "dripped" in every possible corner and Roni Levy went crazy.
He realized that on the one hand it is the choice of the professional manager, but on the other hand the owner prefers someone else.
Even before the first practice, Levy saw the past and turned to Benyon.
"Maybe we'll give it up? It feels crooked," he told him, but Benyon assured that there was no cause for concern and that he was celebrating support during.
Levy fell into the biggest trap in Betar Jerusalem - the gap between the threshold of expectations and reality. One can argue about the degree of attractiveness that the team played under him, but Roni Levy brought Betar to its glass ceiling.
Betar can not invent anything, it does not have the ability to deal with Maccabi Tel Aviv and Maccabi Haifa when the players' salaries are significantly lower. And that is before we talked about the investment of the two in the youth department, which are budgeted at NIS 20-30 million a year. For comparison, the department's budget is NIS 2 million.
In football, extraordinary things happen.
Sometimes it is possible to produce a flicker for one season like the last season of Eli Tabib who came close to Hapoel Beer Sheva, but even that was after he had built a squad for five years, when expectations were low and the very struggle for the top spot was a pleasant surprise.
There is nothing to do, the salary of the players at Betar Jerusalem has returned to the era of Eli Tabib, and the level and breadth of the staff cannot compete for a degree.
He, too, is beginning to understand: Betar is not really capable of dealing with Maccabi Tel Aviv and Maccabi Haifa. Celebrating (Photo: Official website, Betar Jerusalem spokeswoman)
Levy was fired after the loss to the Albanian Tata in the Europa League qualifiers.
It was the first game of the season, and just a month earlier Celebrate had informed Levy that he believed in it.
One game as weak as it is, should not result in the dismissal of a coach.
But Celebrate's decision at the time was in fact an admission that he did not really want to continue with Levy, and let him open another season just because he did not want to pay him high compensation.
In the dismissal call celebrating it was he who called Levy himself.
He knew what it meant when he made the move without the consent of Yossi Benyon, and he knew that Benyon would resign immediately afterwards, which would "close a corner for him."
After all, Celebrate does not deny that he no longer believes in the concept of a professional manager.
He even demanded from Benyon before appointing Roni for another season to stand on the lines and coach, but Benyon refused.
Those who can benefit from what Roni Levy went through at Betar are Slobodan Drapic and Shai Barda. In the celebrating era, Betar had good coaches, but everyone - from Guy Luzon through Nir Klinger to Roni Levy - came out feeling that the gap between expectations and reality was insane.
Recently it seems that celebrants are also starting to understand this.
He can fantasize, dream and want, but in the current budget, with the players' salaries and the overall level of investment, she can not compete for degrees.
Third place and a ticket to Europe is the ceiling of the club in its current state.
The main earners?

Fans are also starting to internalize this.
After being disappointed from the end of a season in third place, all they crave at the club is a promotion to the top playoffs.
It illustrates the whole hallucinatory situation the club is in these years.
The season-opening meeting held at Betar illustrates the situation more than anything. When celebrating, he asked everyone if the signing of Noble Omar would make the team compete for the championship, Levy replied:
Need 4-5 more significant players - senior defender, stopper, back contact, winger and striker.
Not to mention thickening the roster with worthy replacements. "Tonight Roni Levy will try to illustrate celebrating how far he is from there - this time as the coach of the rival team.
