Taking advantage of my luxuriously long Christmas and New Year break and eager to test out my new camera I decided to visit some more Warsaw stadiums. As followers of the blog know, there are a host of different club stadiums in Warsaw and its environs, in different states of decay. Perhaps the most spectacular […]

After a frantic and even first leg last Wednesday, yesterday PKS and Przyszłość played the second leg to decide which club would advance to the 5th tier of Polish football. On a relatively dreary Sunday in Warsaw I set off to Włochy to see which team would prevail. I once more made the mistake of […]
After all the buildup I set off to South-East Warsaw to catch the first game of the play-off for the IV Liga. Radość is quite a long way from the part of Praga in which I live, and the bus seemed to take an absolute age to get there as it crept through the rush-hour […]
