Moroccan football fans demand club president's resignation amid relegation crisis

The "Halala Boys," a prominent fan group of Morocco's KAC (Kenitra Athletic Club), has issued a strong statement demanding the immediate resignation of club president Hakim Doumo and his entire executive board. The call for leadership change came immediately following the team's match against the Moroccan team Mansouria.

“

The current administration is responsible for the return to the second division and the decline of the club's image due to a lack of strategies.

In their statement, the fan group squarely placed responsibility on the current administration for the club's recent relegation to the second division. They cited a "lack of strategies" as the primary reason for the team's poor performance and the subsequent tarnishing of the club's reputation. The "Halala Boys" asserted that the slogans and initiatives promoted by the current leadership do not serve the best interests of KAC.

Furthermore, the group voiced significant concerns regarding the club's financial situation. According to their statement, expenditures have reportedly surpassed six billion [currency not specified] following the recent match, a stark increase from the previous season's spending of over two billion. This financial oversight has become a major point of contention for the concerned fans.

“

We are deeply concerned about the club's financial situation, after spending more than two billion in the last season, and expenses are expected to exceed six billion after the match.

In response to the escalating crisis, the "Halala Boys" appealed to the governor of Kenitra province to intervene urgently. They seek assistance in rescuing the team from further descent into amateur leagues and in securing the necessary support for the club's future. The fans also called for a new management approach, free from the alleged "backstage dealings" of club members. The statement concluded with a plea for unity among KAC supporters and local stakeholders to rally behind the team for its crucial upcoming match, emphasizing the importance of securing their place in the league.

We call on the governor of Kenitra to intervene immediately to save the team from relegation to the amateur divisions and provide the necessary support.
