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!  

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.

Dumitru Dragomir

What happens in Romanian football is still surprising for everybody. Today we are speaking about Dumitru Dragomir. He was born in Oltenia - the region which has Universitatea Craiova in mind and soul. This part of Romania only hopes it will come a day when FC Universitatea Craiova will rise again and fight against the big football clubs in Europe.

Back in the 1946 in Balcesti, Valcea was born this guy called Mitica Dragomir. He came from a poor family of peasants and started early his life trying to emigrate in a big city in the age of 15. It seems he tried to work in a communist factory but when he saw how hard is to work he suddenly fell in love with football. He says he tried to be a football player but nobody have seen him playing in his life. After this he went in a referee school and he also studied to be a trainer. He became a football club president because the communists wanted sons of peasants to rule everything in Romania. He used to be the president of FC Olt Scornicesti (the foobtall team based in Ceausescu's born place), FCM Brasov and Victoria Bucharest (the team of Securitatea - Ceausescu's secret service). After 1990 he went in prison for a short time because he broke the law many times when he was one of the protegees of communist regime in Romania. He managed to get out of prison, started a newspaper and because he knew too much about the others he was named the president of Romanian Football League in the way he will be forced to close his publication and do no more blackmails. 

20 years he was actually nr.2 in Romanian Football (after Mircea Sandu - the president of Romanian Football Federation) and nobody asked how can this be possible. How can someone without any school, without any basic knowledge to be the manager of First Romanian Football League. He actually had no rules there. He made his own decisions concerning every team as he wanted or as his interest was.

In the end all the football fans revolted and changed him from this important position. After this change a big chain of illegalities was discovered and his is part of many trials as a main suspect. The exclusion of Universitatea Craiova from all football competitions of Romania was his fault, too. And he will be convict on May 25th because of this. Despite all of his Mafia style activities he continues to be the president of a Romanian football club called FC Voluntari. A club without fans and without any kind of tradition. How can be possible such a situation?

Romanian Football's Mafia In Court

The head of Professional Football League (LPF), Dumitru Dragomir, was heard again by DNA's prosecutors concerning FC Universitatea Craiova expulsion case.

Unlike two weeks ago, when Dragomir created a circus in front of the DNA institution, today, LPF's boss was confined to declare that "It is my business what I said to the prosecutors". He will soon get in prison.

Mircea Sandu, president of Romanian Football Federation (FRF), is accused of bribery and Dragomir of complicity. Dragomir transferred 400.000 €, representing TV broadcasting rights of Gloria Bistrita, into an account of Mircea Sandu's wife, Elisabeta. Dragomir's official motivation was that Sandu's wife had loaned the football club Gloria Bistrita the same amount. In respect with this loan an affidavit was prepared, but there is no bank transaction showing that the loan was indeed granted.

That is why, investigators suspect that, in fact, Elisabeta Sandu did not ever gave Gloria Bistrita money and the transfer was, as a matter of fact, bribes for FRF's President.

Universitatea Craiova - One Year Off

Universitatea Craiova is the most unfortunate football team. Practically, this club will wait one year without being implied in any activity. Romanian Football Federation decided two months ago to exclude this team from any competition.

This is a strange situation and the fans of Universitatea Craiova are angry because of it. They organized a protest in Craiova asking for football to be played. This protest had no echo. Nobody can fight against Mafia. Because the Romanian football is now in Mafia's hands.
