“I would like to thank all people who came. They did not deserve what happened. I have no moral right to stay. We shall part ways. I take full responsibility. I hope another coach will come along who will be able to get the players to their feet and change the situation. I apologize to everyone who watched this production,” Yasen Petrov said.
