BOZOVIC: CHAMPIONS LEAGUE WOULD NOT SAVE MOSKVA


The Montenegrin specialist who head FC Moskva last season, Miodrag Bozovic talked about his todays feeling when his club have been collapsed..


Having hardly stepped over the threshold of the conference room Bozovic mentioned in a slightly humorous manner typical of him:

- I thought that people have already got tired of me, let Bozovic off. Probably I will be able to last for several more years still, and will be interesting to somebody.

- Do you still at least nominally remain head coach of the Citizens or can we say that you have already finished your work?

- My contract has not been cancelled yet, that is to happen in the first week of March. And then we will be able to speak about the end of my career in FC Moskva.

- Are you promised to get the full amount under the contract signed till the end of 2010?

- They told me everything will be done humanly but I do not exclude the possibility that I understand this word differently than they do.

- “They” means managers pf Norilsky Nickel, does not it?

- “They” means “they”.

- Have “they” rebated any of your words in the press?

- No. nobody has said anything.

- Do you have a contract with the management of Norilsky Nickel?

- No. Everything that has anything to do with me is done through the former president of the club Igor Dmitriev. But three days ago I met Isakovich [head of the company Sports Projects supervising all sports directions of Nornickel].

- And what were you talking about?

- About the weather, what else could it be. We discussed how much snow there is this winter.

- What impression has Isakovich made on you?

- I think he was not the one to make decisions. He did what he was told. It is obvious he is not a very important person.

- Do you think Dmitriev experience any guilt for what has happened?

- I do not know. And I do not think he is to blame for anything. On the contrary he did his utmost to safe the club. I think you know that the decision about the future of Moskva was made in such places that we could only hear and obey.

- Do not you think Dmitriev has walked off?

- He is a clever man. Maybe somebody advised him that he should better think about himself, not about the club.

- Can you name the man whose word decided the fate of the club?

- I know the name. But I do not want to say it. And why are you afraid to say the name out loud? And I think that you have a couple of options. You can utter any one and I do not think your guess will be too far.

- Recently Isakovich says one thing and then an opposite one happens. Four days ago he stated that Moskva has a chance to play in the Second Division and Norilsky Nickel can take advantage of this opportunity. But we have a feeling that the matter goes to the team’s liquidation. What feeling do you have?

- I know not more than you do. But I think that the club will be closed. I also assume that Isakovich himself does not know about the future of Moskva, “they” have not told him yet.

- As the possibility of the collapse of the English football club Portsmouth shows that a bankruptcy of a club is real. But is it possible that anywhere except in Russia such a political-economic situation appears, analogous to the one with Moskva?

- No. But in Moskva there was no bankruptcy. The club had no debts. The amount of money we had was enough to participate in the Russian Premier League for half a year. The decision made was completely political. And I do not know why Nornickel was so cruel to us.

- Had Moskva acquired a spot in the European Cups would the company have risked pulling the club out of the tournament?

- Probably not. And that could have saved the club but only for half a year. If we get to the Europa League or even the Champions League we would in any case have been disbanded as soon as we stumbled out of it.
