🗣️| Fabian Hurzeler on recent criticism: “It is not my place to say if it is fair or not fair. In the end, it is about bouncing back, showing a reaction and don’t talk too much about the last game. “Just work hard, give the fans the things they deserve. We all apologised after the (Forest) game. I apologised after the game for this performance and I do it again. But now it is about looking into the future. Now it is about sticking together. “I think criticism is important for the development. But, in the end, we can only achieve things together. We need the fans at the Amex, we need them to support us. We need them as our 12th man. If they are there, we have more energy. “It is also about knowing together we can achieve more. I know criticism is part of the business and it is also complete justified. But now it is about sticking together and getting out of this situation together.” #BHAFC [via The Argus]
