The protest of Hapoel Tel Aviv fans against the owners of the team continues, and this morning (Monday) the organization "Ultras Hapoel" published a letter addressed to the Nisnov brothers, in which its members issue an ultimatum: the sale of the team or a boycott of subscribers.
After an opening in which they express their loyalty, and present themselves as "individuals who are driven by a net love for the club," they also make it clear: "And as such we must be vigilant against those who come to exploit us."
And immediately continue to clarify the current ownership group: "It is important to emphasize: full ownership of the club passed into these hands without consideration, but only with the promise of 'handling the club's debts' in front of the liquidator. "Non-compliance with contracts, phenomena that have become and have become the accepted course of action in Wolfson - the complete opposite of debt management."
From then on, the Ultras complained about the team's professional failure and the "mediocrity that surrounds the club and threatens its future", a situation that they claim deprives any fan of sleep "who returns home after another derby without a win".
Fans also chuckle: "The irony is that even in a season when the club 'managed' to get a permit to play in Europe (we will clarify: not due to debts but due to their rejection), the team failed to reach this goal. Someone remembers that until recently it was part of Tel Aviv?".
The fans' complaints continue, including the management's accusation of harassing the fans, when at this point the accusations have slipped into harsh words, as well as the claim that although the management presents attempts to sell the team, it is not interested.
Fans are reiterating: "In order to push management to sell the club, we must refrain from continuing to fund ownership of the current structure."

"The false presentation of 'We saved Hapoel' crumbled a long time ago," the letter continues, "Now it is our turn, Hapoel Tel Aviv fans, to really save Hapoel: we call on all fans of the team to refrain from purchasing subscriptions until the club management meets our requirements." Invest in a group or put it up for sale.
Then the fans also sting: "We probably need to teach you how to sell a football team."
The fans also demand full transparency, in front of potential buyers about the status of the debts and the asking price, and also in front of the fans themselves.
In conclusion, it is written: "If it is not clear to anyone, a subscription boycott is our doomsday weapon. This decision is made with a heavy heart and great sorrow; but mainly in anger towards the club management that has driven us here."
