The game of blaming stared... To be honest, even though I'm not a kind of a critical person, all the conferences, Janas' speeches and players' opinions make me see red... I'm aware of the fact that there is no use in searching guilty for Polish misfortune during the World Cup, however... Have you heard Janas? His behaviour, way of speaking, attacking journalists etc. is broadly speaking... tasteless. He feels that Polish newspapers betrayed him because they didn't praise their players after the match. But, did they deserve a positive opinion especially taking into consideration the match with Ecuador? Before the match they were ignoring Ecuador, telling that they are going to eat them for a dinner or sth like that... They were boasting and it seems that they payed a high price for that... I still believe in my team, here in Poland football is a national religion after Christianity... Don't be surprised that we react in this way... Many Poles had spent their last money on a journey to Germany to see a match with Ecuador. To my mind players have some debt to pay...

But economics cannot be the sole reason for present-day woes. This Cup, you've got Croatia, the Czech Republic, Poland, Serbia and Montenegro and Ukraine, all formerly commie and at least two (Serbia and Montenegro, Ukraine) with national programs just as underfunded as Hungary's. In Hungary, too, the game is underfunded, but is mostly comatose due to the corruption of the 1970s which had teams blantantly throwing games thanks to pre-arranged results. Meanwhile, Poland places third in 1974 while East Germany and the Soviet Union manage to assemble generally competent teams. The Polish, it seems, had national pride as well, for i would guess there's no way they were getting the cashflow the East Germans (Remember those notorious Olympic athletes?) and Soviet Union was getting. In the end, you're probably dead on about improving the infrastructure of the country's program. Money can't be everything, however: Talent does rise to the top and the Ivory Coast, for one, is happy about that. Truth is, all the bemoaning about Poland's poor play is a bit exaggerated; they got on The Grand Stage, didn't they? And another truth is, they didn't deliver when they needed to. Aureliusz,

The problem today is that Polish football is under funded; the infrastructure is that of the 70’s and football schools are below standard. Just needs to be more focus, enthuses, on improving internal matters and especially infrastructure, before the results are seen externally. And for God sakes if under these conditions at present we are ranked 22 in the world, give or take a few positions, imagine what can be achieved if a little more money is found in the sport. I wouldn’t be surprised that back in the 70’s the games was better looked after by the communist Government then it is today…. now I was born in 75 so I done really know, but I’m sure it was much better looked after.
