"Yes to life wake up tiger!"
("Sports Review", 12/27/2010)

new stadiums and runs an interesting rivalry in the Polish league drew an average fall of 8.5 thousand spectators per game. Today This is the 14th result in Europe, but soon it gets even more interesting. Polish league when it comes to attendance, has a chance against the EURO 2012 Ukrainian league title chase, Portuguese, Swiss and Belgian. Another grandstand opens after Wisla Krakow and Legia Warsaw, and at the completion of the stadium waiting for a few consecutive league teams. In the autumn of hundreds of the top clubs in the continent knocking FC and Lech Poznan, and soon they will do it next. Yes to life wakes up sleeping tiger of Europe!

No. 20 000 spectators at each match is the boundary that divides the company's stable, very high in their cities, real interest, since seasonal meteorites. Today, in this group do not fit into recognizable in Europe-FC Copenhagen (16,000) or Rosenborg Trondheim (17,000). For the elite 102 club teams much closer to Polish. Clubs from Warsaw and Poznan exceed the magic number of 20 000 already in the spring round. In the longer term, chances are it also has Wisla Krakow.

Kolejorz would be in this group in the autumn, if in July, was put to use the entire stadium. The first two games of the season but played with a smaller audience, which of Poznan zaniżyło turnout for the entire round autumn.

only count if the next meeting, which showed how many fans actually be able to attract the Poznan team, it would mean Lech 20,900 spectators and would take the 94th place on the continent. And this is the 113th (Mean 18 850). Legia with an average of 19 256 zajmuje105 lokatę.Taka turnout may not be tethered leg players from the Bundesliga, but it affected the players from other countries. Even in Serbia, Croatia or Bulgaria, where the players are accustomed to seeing the empty seats (average of two thousand. Spectators).

stub West
Poland to the new stadium and a good atmosphere began to be a substitute for them the West. He let himself be seduced by the goalkeeper Marijan Antolović Legion. When you fall a few times does not fit on the bench in the club shop buying a scarf of the Legion of i. .. chose the "Body." Matches Górnik, Jagiellonia and watched from the grandstand Ark of the staunchest supporters!

- In Poland, soccer games can be longer holiday. People here earn more because they do not have such problems, as in Croatia. In my country fans skip the stadiums. disincentive to their neglected stands, corruption in the league, the manipulation of judges. I wanted to enjoy this, so I went to the Body. I chose a seat next to ultras, but one from which I could see the flag and cheer - he says Croat. The element of Polish fans were able to impress the other foreigners. Match of the Legion of Lechia (0-3) watched from the stands then tested by the Warsaw club Volodymyr Prijomow. The striker, who was in the frame Shakhtar Donetsk, the Ukrainians won the UEFA Cup and played in many stadiums, recognizing nodded, looking at what has happened on an object at Łazienkowska.
- I see that there a lot of visiting fans. In Ukraine there is no such custom. Is every Polish club has so many fans who follow him? - Asked the footballer.

overtake Europe
with enthusiasm about the popularity of football in Poland, says a representative of Slovenia also Andraμ Kirmani. Competitor Wisla Krakow enjoys thousands of supporters from 1915 to 1917, gathering at the stadium Reymont. When he played in NK Domμale, watched it ... 600 fans. When the Wisla open two more stands, it will be able to join the Legion and Lech. And when the fans fill the new stadiums in Gdansk and Wroclaw, while 35 per cent, then our league surpass Ukrainian, Portuguese, Swiss, and even Belgian. The latter is now the 10th Division place, mainly thanks to the popularity of three clubs, which have a following of thousands of visitors from 1922 to 1923 (Standard Liege, Club Brugge, Anderlecht).

EURO opportunity for us
opening of new facilities associated with the organization of major international events and was a big impetus to the development of other leagues. In the early 90s average attendance in the league was the Dutch 7000. After the construction of stadiums, on which the matches were played EURO 2000, the average audience has increased considerably.

Today is the sixth Eredivisie league on the continent (an average of about 19,000 supporters). Disputes stroke turnout (about 12-16 percent.) Reported also in Austria and Switzerland, which took place during the season preceding the EURO 2008. Fastest euphoria subsided in Austria - the average attendance quickly dropped by 1-1.5 thousand per game.

Generation Thomas Kupisz long-awaited modern stadiums. When 20-year-old was returning from England in the summer, he could be afraid of what he saw. But he found the country a few objects that match the level of Premier League. His Jagiellonia also builds a new stadium and I'm sure it will belong to the modern. - Very pleased me what I saw. I also see some differences. They are in it and the positives. Bolton away fixtures are not moved around so many supporters, as happens in Poland. Even in the cup match to the far Lounge 350 came for the Jagiellonia fans. Whether it is cold, or heat, it's always been with us a lot of supporters group - said Kupisz.

Beautiful packaging
So, unless the Polish league definitely lose to the Western leagues in terms of finance and sports, this is already able to match some of them in the beautiful "packaging" the football spectacle.

That's good, because the turnout and the level of a closed circle. The more fans, more money for transfers. The crowds in stadiums across a make or brand of the league. No wonder that the transfer to the leaders of the Polish league clubs are now considering several Levski players. In the autumn of their matches watched by only 1.9 thousand residents of Sofia ...

How Do You Tell Guest To Pay For Own Meal



WHERE IS THE PLACE Kolejorz?

(Full Monty)

"Tani success Lech Poznań"
("Sports Review", 21/12/2010)

Promotion Lech Poznań to 1 / 16 finals of the League of European financial sensation. Kolejorz the last five transfer windows (since summer 2008) has allocated 5.1 million for the strengthening of the euro. Metalist Kharkiv
spent more on one Brazilian Taisona (6.3 million), and for two and a half years has invested a total of up to 20 million. Of the teams left in the competition, but BATE Borisov on his team seemed a lot less than Kolejorz.

Lech ahead Aris and PAOK too, but only theoretically. With raging financial crisis in Greece, the Thessaloniki club no longer recruit players for large sums. They prefer to engage players with cards in hand, so that they are paying higher salaries. Aris pulled off in such a way that Ricardo and Freddy Adu Faty'ego and rivals Ibrahim Bakayoko, Pablo Garcia and Dimitrios Salpigidisa. In Kolejorzu, although it is theoretically higher spending on transfers, players with such names do not play.

Under normal circumstances champion Polish investments in the transfer market would be sufficient only to reach the group phase of European League. Expenses of 1.5-2 million per season, which also bears every year AEK Athens and Gent, usually does not allow you to rise to 1 / 16 finals. Know something about this in Zagreb. Dinamo puts much more resources, and the fourth consecutive season in Europe ends at the Europa League group stage (or UEFA Cup). It is difficult for another application - the second rise of Lech to 1 / 16 finals in the last three years, like squeezing a lemon. To take the next step, it takes longer to open the money spigot. And it is wide.

How wide? 10 million issued since the summer of 2008 by Anderlecht not specifically raised the level of play of the Belgians - boosted this amount allows them to reach only 1 / 8 finals LE. Issue three million more in the last three years I never once helped Rosenborgowi Trondheim, skipping the level of the group phase LE. However, already well invested 13 million euros by FC Copenhagen led to two promotions to 1 / 16 finals LE, PU, \u200b\u200band finally to the best "16" Champions League.

not this ceiling
To match them, Lech transfer policy must change. This year, balanced fight in Europe, two of Poznan greatly helped to strengthen the East. Magnificent matches with Juventus and the City would not be without the acquisition of Sergei Kriwca and Artjomsa Rudnevsa. But no one knows when this source dries, and so many good players for such a low price can still be found. And experience teaches that no club has not yet been able to relate the annual success attracting players in Europe for a maximum of 500-600 thousand. euro.

In recent years there has been many similar surprises. Still more have made only Hapoel Tel-Aviv and Helsingborg. The club with the Israeli low financial effort was promoted to 1 / 16 games in 2009, and the Swedes in 2007. But that's all. The rest had a really strong financial base, and today in the group stage LE is usually knocked out such clubs as the Gent, which lightly on the single player seems a million euros, or Hajduk Split (with 7 million Nikola Kalinicia sales to Blackburn 2 million earmarked for the purchase of a player from the Croatian league) and even Utrecht (the highest transfer - 2.8 million).

And how can you pursue?
Kolejorz is not an outsider. He released after more than eight clubs that dropped out this fall in the group stage LE (Lausanne-Sport, Sheriff Tiraspol, Karpaty Lviv, Levski Sofia, CSKA Sofia, Odense, Debreczen, Rapid Vienna). But today may be just the leader of the pack.

There is concern that Lech will never be able to catch up with those who had left him for many miles. Jacek Rutkowski club owner is not large deposits of cash. And next season to play back even after two Istanbul powers, which in September potknęły already in the first round of the LE. But not only Fenerbahce (74 million euro!) And Galatasaray (37 millions) can easily push Kolejorz from his prestigious place today. With such a modest expenditure transfer as the Lech, you have to reckon with and the possibility of any rival. Even with falling out of the cup for circulation.
