Due to the Big Four.. A Fiery Protest from the Youth on the Championship Documentation Project

Faris Al-Alyani attacked the documentation committee, asserting that the project's path lacks fairness. He accused them of catering to the clubs of Al-Hilal, Al-Nassr, Al-Ittihad, and Al-Ahli at the expense of true history. Al-Alyani considered the omission of cup championships from the classification to be an injustice to his club. He clarified that the neglect of the King's Cup, which began in 1957, is an attempt to distort history. He viewed the replacement of the cup with the league as benefiting only specific clubs.

The working team is preparing to officially announce the results tomorrow during the general assembly. Media figure Abdulaziz Al-Asimi announced that the statistics will not be presented officially. It will suffice to disclose the ages of the championships and the number of their editions. Al-Shabab Club was the only club that rejected the final results. The project received approval from 63 clubs out of 64 participants.

Al-Alyani stated that the session on January 27 focused only on the league without mentioning the cup. He described it as a deliberate attempt to rewrite the history of the competitions. He accused the team of using the name change as an excuse to justify the exclusion of cup championships. He pointed out that the regulations are clear in considering the name and system of the championship as a cup, not a league. He confirmed that the King's Cup cannot be converted into a league competition in any case.

Al-Alyani cited official letters confirming the launch of the King's Cup in 1957. He affirmed that his club has held an official championship since 1952, documented with evidence. He clarified that Al-Shabab won the King's Cup in 1960, and this cannot be denied. He criticized allowing clubs without championships to vote on historical championships. He emphasized that the voting results harmed his club and obscured its rich history.

Al-Alyani said that the four clubs benefited from the selected criteria. Al-Hilal will appear as the most successful in achieving league and cup titles. Al-Nassr will benefit from the inclusion of regional championships in its favor. Al-Ittihad and Al-Ahli will benefit from the conversion of cup championships to a league. He considered that the votes were distributed equally without regard to true history.
