Kayseri Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Memduh Büyükkılıç sent a championship message to Kayserispor after the club was mentioned on a national TV quiz show. A question about Kadir Has Stadium and Kayserispor featured on ATV's 'Kim Milyoner Olmak İster' (Who Wants to Be a Millionaire).
The question began with the phrase 'The kick-off has been taken and the match has started at Kadir Has Stadium, dear listeners.' The contestant was asked which team plays its home matches at this stadium. The multiple-choice options included Samsunspor, Kayserispor, Trabzonspor, and Bursaspor.
Following reactions to this moment on social media, Mayor Büyükkılıç made a post. He expressed his pleasure at seeing Kayseri's name mentioned on a nationally broadcast competition. "The name of our Kayseri, the love for our Kayserispor is everywhere," he said.
Büyükkılıç stated, "We are happy that our Kayserispor and our Kadir Has Stadium were asked about on 'Kim Milyoner Olmak İster'." In his post, he addressed the team directly and emphasised the championship goal.
Support on the Road to the Title
"I wish success to Kayserispor, the pride of our city, on the road to the championship, and I commemorate the late Kadir Has, who added value to our Kayseri, with mercy and gratitude," he said. This message demonstrated top-level support for the team's campaign in the 1. Lig.
Kadir Has Stadium is a major sports facility synonymous with Kayserispor. The stadium, named after the late businessman Kadir Has, hosts all of the team's home matches.
The mayor's support serves as a morale boost for the league-leading team. Kayserispor sits top of the 1. Lig with 26 points from 11 matches. The team is on an unbeaten run of five games, with four wins and one draw (DWWWW) in that sequence. They lead second-placed Iğdır FK by three points.
The team's most recent league match was a 2-2 draw at home to Batman Petrolspor on October 18th. This weekend, they continue their league journey with an away fixture. Pendikspor currently sits 16th in the table.
Kayserispor, with 24 goals scored this season, is one of the highest-scoring teams in the league. Taulant Seferi is the team's top scorer with 9 goals in 11 appearances. Mayor Büyükkılıç's championship emphasis is seen as an encouragement for this successful performance to continue. The team will carry this support with them as they prepare for the Pendikspor match.
