What really happened? It’s very easy for anyone to go out and point fingers, especially because everyone knows I never defend myself or clarify what’s been said about me or what I’ve been accused of. But, as I told many, I will never say anything that could be misconstrued and do hurt someone.
Since the team’s inception, I’ve made it a point to ensure that we either take this to a professional level or don’t bother joining the league just to play football. A team can be assembled by anyone, but not everyone can compete and raise the bar.
What actually occurred? When this team was disbanded, 15 people who were on the payroll were let go off. The Lebanese women’s league has lost a strong challenger. Around 35 players were denied the opportunity to compete at a high level. Women’s football fans have lost a source of enjoyment because we are no longer competing. Someone’s greed and imposition led to the demise of a well-managed organisation.
Let’s talk about microeconomics for a minute. All of the following businesses lost a significant consumer. Physiotherapy clinics, pharmacies, water and ice suppliers, transportation (buses and taxi drivers), football fields, sport equipment suppliers, and so on.
Looking back at everything that took place, I’ll restate what I used to tell the staff and players: “everything happens for a reason.” I have no resentment towards anyone and am living my life extremely happy, proud of what I did and glad of the difference I’ve made in the lives of many people I’ve met.
