Romania - Sweden 1-0

"Ion Oblemenco" stadium - Craiova - March 27th 2018

Romania met Sweden in a friendly game. Probably it was the most animated friendly game ever. That happened because of the fans of FC U 1948 - the historical team called in the past "Universitatea" Craiova. After this football team was abusively rejected from Romanian football the fans remained without a football team. More than this, the socialist political party (PSD) invented by night a football team with the same colors and symbols pretending that was the real Universitatea Craiova. This fake team is called CSU. UEFA doesn't agree with such a situation but, in Romania, the CSU easily stolen our stadium and our history. They started to play in the Romanian Second League just like this, even though Romanian football has 5 leagues and a new team should start from the lowest one.

In such circumstances the fans of FC U 1948 were sent out from their home - "Ion Oblemeco" stadium - and forced to start again from the last league of Romanian football. Today FC U 1948 is in the 4th Romanian Football League and is still banned to play its games on our former stadium. We are forced to play somewhere out of the city of Craiova, but in such conditions our team won all the games until now and has the biggest chances to promote in the 3rd League in this summer.

When the Romanian Football Federation (FRF) decided to play this friendly game against Sweden in Craiova all the fans of FC U 1948 bought tickets at this game. This was the only chance for them to show in Europe what a terrible injustice suffered their team. Romania did a great football game and won by 1-0 but this wasn't so important. The entire world was able to see there is angry people in Romania because of stealing of their property and replacing it with a clone. This happened by an abusive political involvement in football. PSD is not a socialist party, is a new communist dictatorial party using in Romania the methods they used in the '50s. This is our fight and it will never end!  

FC Universitatea 1948

As you might know, Universitatea Craiova was ejected from Romanian football by the ex-president of FRF (Romanian Football Federation) - Mircea Sandu. He was unsatisfied by disobedience of our club regarding his corruption policy and decided by himself to erase our team from Romanian football. More than that,  after 2 years, he contacted the most important Romanian political party and they founded a new team with the same colors and symbols pretending they are the real Universitatea Craiova. 

Because of this our team was forced to change its name in FC U 1948 Craiova, a name that explicitly shows we have the continuity of the old Universitatea Craiova. After all these years of fighting in justice and football fields in the same time FC U 1948 was denied to play on our stadium. Since 2011 we are forced to find new stadiums or football fields in order to remain a football team. Today March 26th 2018 it was the first time our players got access on Ion Oblemenco stadium, our home. It was very hard to get inside, but our players still managed to do it. Our fight still continues and it will never end!

Nicolae Tilihoi Is Dead

God bless him! Nicolae Tilihoi was one of the most representative football players of Universitatea Craiova. He was the most important defender of our team beside Costica Stefanescu being the central defender of Craiova Maxima - the best team we ever had. He was a big champion and a great character. He had a big heart and was one of the most loved football players in Craiova.

After a long fight against cancer he dead on 25th of March 2018. His casket was placed today in a hall of "Ion Oblemeco" stadium where it was visited by his friends, the 2 football teams from Craiova and Romanian National Football team. Rest In Peace, Nicolae Tilihoi! 

We Are BACK!

Hello everybody! After a long time of lack of activity our blog comes back. What happened in meantime it may sound crazy but this just did.

1. Mircea Sandu is no more the president of Romanian Football Federation. Which is good because he was the main reason Romanian football arrived in the worst situation of its entire history. It was a long and fight to remove him from that chair. He wanted to remain there forever, probably. The president of FRF (Romanian Football Federation) is now Razvan Burleanu. On 14th of April 2018 there will be new elections again for the chairman of FRF. 

2. Dumitru Dragomir is no longer the president of LPF (Romanian Football League). He used to be number 2 in Romanian football and "the cardinal Richelieu" of it, actually. His nickname is still "Corleone". If you know a bit about movies, you already understand what am I talking about. Both of them, Dragomir and Sandu are still free. They had a lot of justice problems but they pulled some strings somehow and they did not got in prison... yet.

3. Lia Olguta Vasilescu who used to be the city mayor of Craiova is now a member of Romanian Government. She is the Minister of Labor and the whole country is making fun of her because of really bad knowledge of foreign languages and stupid decisions she makes. The most recent: she decided to double all the salaries in Romania. She started a law package in this why and as a result some salaries became 25% smaller than before. The biggest increase she made was 4% in some insulated cases.
