RE: ⚽ Reading FC's Troubles

in WORLD OF XPILARlast year

It is very sad. It is very unfortunate that this happened to your club.

Sometime in 2005 or 2006, FC Kalush was bought by a new owner. It was a Russian company. At first everything was fine. The following season saw many victories and FC Kalush moved from the second league to the first. It was an unprecedented success for a small city of 70,000 people.

But in the same season, the team from the regional center was relegated from the first league to the second. An incomprehensible agreement took place and our club suddenly became a club of the regional center, and their club became FC Kalush. It was the moment when I and thousands of our fans stopped going to the stadium. A year later, this club, which also had a long history (though without great achievements), ceased to exist.

Perhaps this story did not console you :) Sorry.

You've always told me that there have been strange goings-on in Ukrainian football so this story doesn't really surprise me at all!

I'm hopeful that somebody with a bit of financial acumen (by this I don't mean somebody who wants to spend fuck-tons of money) is able to buy the club. Sir John Madejski was an extremely shrewd operator so this farcical management is very difficult to accept.

I'll have Eastbourne Borough though - they're a nice club and I met the Chairman in the stands the first time that I went... completely contrasting colours though - instead of blue and white, they're red and black - so I think the scarf looks cool 🙂

It's good that there are really many good clubs in England :)
