Cornel Șfaițer, bitter reaction after relegation to Liga 2
“I didn't expect it either. I didn't believe in the worst dreams. I lived a real drama all the people of Iasi. With all the respect for Metaloglobus, I think it is a shame that we did in this double.
Personally, in 27 years I have never been in such a situation. I thought, but I didn't have 11 men in the field. It is inexplicable that a nucleus of players with good results in the Superliga does not manage to save themselves in this double. A great shame for the entire locker room. We had to express ourselves in the game and without a coach.
It will be two or three days and I will sit at the table with my colleagues and make decisions about the future of the club. I was thinking only of the cantonment for Liga 1 this summer … I got involved and financially, from all points of view, “said Cornel Șfaițer, quoted by sportspesurse.ro.
Now, in the end, when everything is over, we seek to pour the anger on our colleagues, the people around us, but I think we should look in the mirror. Some of my colleagues are young and I hope to learn some of these things, even if it ends for me … I don't know if my career.
It is a shame that it ends with a relegation, exactly what I didn't want, but … I don't know what I will do, but you realize that no one falls. That is
