Florin Prunea

Florin Prunea was one of the football players who made the biggest success of Romanian football - quarter of finals at World Cup USA 1994. He and Bogdan Stelea were the best Romanian goalkeepers at a time. 

He was born August 8th 1968 in Bucharest and used to play for Dinamo Bucharest, "U" Cluj-Napoca and Universitatea Craiova. In 1991 he won the title of Champion of Romania and the Romanian Cup for Universitatea Craiova. 

Now, after a short career in Romanian Football Federation, he is the president of CSU Iasi. Nicolo Napoli - Stiinta's former trainer - works in the same club.

Two days ago, Florin Prunea made this statement in a press conference: "People who used to work in football know: most of FRF (Romanian Football Federation) actions in court will be lost. If Adrian Mititelu will win the lawsuit against federation, FRF will be demolished. The president of the Romanian Football Federation comes from a gray world. They are not coming from sport's world. They really hate the players from Romanian national football team. They are coming from corporate system, they are former undercover officers who, I think, don't belong in world of sports."

Romanian Football Federation Is Serious In Trouble

The Romanian Court of Appeals ruled today canceling of FRF's new statute which was voted in the summer of 2014 and the case was sent back for retrial in The Court Of Bucharest. 

This means the statute of 2014 can not be used anymore and all the decisions based on this statute will be canceled. Two major differences between the statute of 2011 and the statute of 2014 are: 

- In Romanian Football Federation (FRF) it is not allowed to be hired a person who got in prison or is involved in a criminal trial. This means some people should be fired there.

- No team can be promoted without an experience of minimum 3 years of existence. This rule is very normal because there are 4 football leagues in Romania. And according with this rule no team can promote but only one league per year. This means if will appear a football team someday, this team should start from the last football league and can play in the first football league - Liga I - no soon than 3 years after its establishing. 

According with this last change canceling, CSU - the new team in Craiova - is in impossibility to play football games in Romanian first league. They only spent 1 year in the second league and played in Liga I very next year. They started in the second football league instead of the last one, as normal. Let's see who will gonna pay for all these corruption facts.

FIFA Disposition Ignored By FRF

Although Mircea Sandu, Dumitru Dragomir and their staff knew about FIFA disposition they hid this fact both clubs and members of the Executive Committee.

FIFA specifically asked that the provisions of art. 9.2 and 18.2 of the FRF (Romanian Football Federation) Statute related about expulsion of a club to be removed because they are illegal and contrary to FIFA statutes. The General Association is the only organism which may exclude a member. This FIFA request was formulated in January 2011. After six months Universitatea Craiova was excluded by FRF's Executive Comitee.

The essay is signed by FIFA and FIFA's legal director Marco Villiger.
