The president of the Bulgarian Wrestling Federation Stanka Zlateva admitted to bTV that part of the debts that the headquarters has accumulated are to Grisha Ganchev.
"I'm telling you - these people have no rights. A Management Board has passed. There is a decision that no one will be allowed to participate anywhere. They never thanked the Ministry of Youth and Sports, that their training has been fully supported by the wrestling federation all along. The ministry gives to the federation, the federation gives to them. You know that we owe, there are 100 thousand leva debts to Grisha Ganchev to the hotel in Teteven. They call and ask again - where is the money. Well, wait for the investigation to pass, wait for people to say what it is about. If everything is in order, you will be given the money", the two-time Olympic vice-champion told our media.
"Let's not forget how much money goes into supporting them and paying them salaries every year. It's all from the Bulgarian Wrestling Federation. Thanks to the Ministry of Sports. Let's not forget these things. Where does the entire budget go, except for supporting the CSKA club. Come on, please stop now, okay?", the five-time world champion calls.
Does CSKA pay for the "red" wrestlers to practice at "Dianabad"?
"Now I'll tell you about the note and the closed hall at "Dianabad". We're going to a competition. Someone ordered someone to load the buses with dummies, bags and take them out of the halls. But then: “Why are you blocking our access?!“. But what kind of people are you? You don't pay for a hall. Don't pay, but train in "Dianabad". Who supports you?! The state still supports you! So the state gives, gives, rent is paid for this hall, rent is paid by the federation. And you, CSKA, don't have a hall because they kicked you out for not paying, given that they have the richest patron, they don't have a hall.
What is there in "Dianabad"? You don't pay electricity, you don't pay water, everything is taken care of by the state again... So we oblige the other clubs: a rental agreement, a hall agreement, but this, that... So all the common people in Bulgaria can abide by the laws, only some people may not abide by them!?", Zlateva wonders.
Bottom, and below it - we are
The finale is sad. Are there any surprises? "I'm telling you - we are below the bottom. Below the bottom. When all the people call me and say: "Stanche, we are with you! Just don't give up! Go ahead, we can! We are inspired! We want to fight because of you!". I like that, the unification of these people who call me and tell me "We are with you!". That's more important! Someone had claims... I was a medalist and a national competitor, but I never had such claims. I did my job and I knew why I was doing it. Simeon Shterev led men and women at the same time. There was no one to ask us at one time: "Do you have something to eat, don't you?". Now they have conditions, they feed them, good food, conditions, teams for everyone, new tricks for everyone. Everything they want. They just have to train and cook.
We need to set an example for them, to give the young kids an incentive so that they know that from now on they can become a factor in this country, and not prefer to buy someone. I have nothing against the boys, but a Bulgarian should call. They are always crushed. This one didn't get up, the other one didn't get up, let's destroy this one, 1000 leva is a lot for him... Enough! "We are destroying our own and crushing them," the chairman of the Bulgarian Stock Exchange takes stock.
