Steaua, Banul Public si “Nu există aşa ceva în Europa civilizată”

Romania este o tara a extremelor. De vreo 20 de ani, una dintre aceste extreme este a 4-a putere in stat. PRESA! Mai exact, PRESA SPORTIVA. In continuarea articolului de ieri, venim cu demontarea mitului “Nu există aşa ceva în Europa civilizată”. Este ceea ce sustine “celebrul” jurnalist, Radu Naum, alaturi de alti colegi. Este adevarat? Nicaieri in “Europa Civilizata” nu exista finantare din bani publici? Cat de mari sunt minciunile presei sportive din Romania?

Steaua, banul public si “Nu exista asa ceva in Europa civilizata”, sunt zi de zi pe buzele unor jurnalisti care se ocupa cu propaganda. Atat de slabi pregatiti si rau intentionati, incat Radu Naum il intreba aseara pe Burleanu daca a existat vreo directiva UEFA care interzicea accesul echipelor departamentale in competitiile organizare de forul international. De ce spunem slab pregatiti si rau intentionati? Pentru ca informatia a fost demontata in urma cu multi ani si argumentata de 2-3 raspunsuri oficiale, oferite de catre UEFA catre suporterii Stelei.

Romania, Steaua si banul public

Incepem demontarea acestei propagande prin a ne uita in propria curte: Romania. Stat membru NATO si UE, Romania este unul dintre statele care finanteaza sportul in masa. Cand ne referim la sportul in masa, Romania detine multe CS-uri (Cluburi Sportive) prin intermediul carora desfasoara aceasta activitate. Aceasta strategie a adus Romaniei sute de medalii la olimpiade, europene si campionate mondiale. Aceeasi strategie a adus si doua trofee continentale prin Steaua Bucuresti si au ridicat Dinamo si Craiova in topul european pentru cativa ani. CSA Steaua Bucuresti este unul dintre aceste CS-uri.

Dupa revolutie, fotbalul romanesc a fost atins de “investitori”, “patroni” si “oameni de afaceri”, iar sportul rege a inceput sa scada in calitate, in timp ce bazele sportive sfarseau in paragina. Unii dintre noi au fost printre fericitii care au prins “Cupa Liceelor” la Polivalenta, alaturi de staruri precum George Ogararu sau Stefan Radu. Acea competitie care era menita sa aduca CS-urilor jucatori de perspectiva si neidentificati, a fost ultima piesa sanatoasa a sistemului care functiona in Romania. A mai avut Gheorghe Hagi o tentativa cu competitia “Cupa Danone”, insa aceasta nu a reusit sa se ridice la anvergura Cupei Liceelor.

In 2023, Romania are fotbalul la pamant, iar presa face propaganda pe tema “banului public” pentru a nu lasa in Superliga o singura echipa, un singur CS, o singura disciplina sportiva a unui CS. Motivatia si ura nu se regasesc in discursul lui Radu Naum, atunci cand vine vorba de Steaua la handbal, gimnastica, baschet, polo, rugby, scrima, etc. Nu se regasesc nici atunci cand se vorbeste despre Marian Dragulescu, Sandra Izbasa, Ana Maria Branza, Ana Maria Bogdan, Bernadette Szocs, Alina Dumitru, David Popovici sau Vlad Stancu.

Amintiti-va toata propaganda pozitiva pentru David Popovici. “Statul trebuie sa faca bazine”, “Baiatul asta merita mai multi bani”, ultima: “Salariu de Liga a 2-a pentru David Popovici”. David Popovici fiind acum legitimat la CS Dinamo, club departamental si a fost modelat de CSA Steaua care nu avea de unde sa-i ofere un bazin Olimpic. Toata presa sportiva din Romania cerea ca statul sa investeasca bani in infrastructura si sportivi pentru natatie.

Motivatia si ura nu se regasesc in discursul lui Naum sau al colegilor, atunci cand vorbim despre echipele in Pitesti, Iasi, Buzau, Chiajna, Sibiu, Cluj, Timisoara, Voluntari si 99.9% din echipele de fotbal din Romania care primesc bani de la stat intr-o forma sau alta.

Nu există aşa ceva în Europa civilizată

Oare? Chiar asa sa fie?

Spania

In 2020, o comisie UE definitiva o ancheta si concluzia era: “Barcelona and Real Madrid use taxpayers money unfairly, rules EU Commission”. Statul a bagat bani in Real Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Ath Bilbao, Osasuna, Elche si a discriminat competitia. Comisia Europeana nu se refera la perioada Covid-19.

Comisia Europeana a anchetat:

Nu exista asta ceva in Europa civilizata?

Franta

Ce face PSG? “PSG again turn to government help to pay their staff“.

“

The company paid 100 million euros for the matches they broadcast, but not 172.3 million euros on October 5, nor 152.5 million on December 5.

As a result, practically all Ligue 1 clubs have turned to state aid in order to pay their staff, while awaiting the arrival of another broadcaster to take over the television rights.

Currently, Ligue 1 games won’t be broadcast after February 5 if no agreement is found.

France Bleu Paris have reported that PSG are using the state payments to pay 400 of their 700 employees, not including playing staff.

PSG had already announced losses of 124 million euros due to the pandemic, with them no longer relying on the state of Qatar to fund the club.“

Cum? Bani publici pentru plata salariilor din fotbalul profesionist din Franta?

Ungaria

“The Orban government spent billions on Hungarian football clubs in Serbia, Romania and Slovakia“

“The Hungarian government is financially supporting soccer wherever it can: new stadiums are being built across the country. Besides professional soccer, there is a huge amount of money spent on junior teams and training the new generations of soccer players as well.

The most famous of the soccer academy is in the home village of Viktor Orbán, in Felcsút. That academy received more than 20 billion Hungarian forints (approximately €62 million at today’s exchange rate) from taxpayer funds – in the form of corporate taxes directed towards it.

In the past few months, we have visited BGA Zrt. several times to learn how exactly they are supporting soccer clubs outside Hungary. We learned that BGA gave FK Csíkszereda 1.33 billion Hungarian forints (approximately €4 million) for the academy’s dormitory and the viewing area that can seat a thousand people. BGA also gave 480 million forints (approximately €1.49 million) for the two soccer fields and for operating costs.

But it was not only BGA that financed the project. MLSZ gave 1.82 billion forints (approximately €5.6 million) for three additional soccer fields and operating costs. The total from BGA and MLSZ is 3.63 billion forints (approximately €11.2 million). However, the club had one more sponsor, the state-owned Hungarian national lottery company.

There is another club in Transylvania that received Hungarian taxpayer money: Sepsi OSK, a club in Sepsiszentgyörgy that plays in the Romanian premier league also got 2 billion forints (approximately €6.19 million) in the past few years.

The Romanian company that operates Sepsi OSK is connected to Károly Varga, a former business partner of Lőrinc Mészáros. The majority, 51 percent of the company called Sepsi OSK SA is owned by HODUT ROM SRL, a subsidiary of Hungarian Hódút Kft, a construction company specializing in road construction.

The minority owner of Sepsi OSK SA is the sports club Asociata Club Sportiv Sepsi OSK. The ultimate beneficial owner of Hódút in Hungary is Károly Varga, who used to co-own two companies with Mészáros, chairman of the Felcsút football academy”

Din cate se pare, Ungaria(stat membru UE si NATO) investest bani publici in fotbalul profesionist din Romania , pe langa cel din Serbia si Slovacia

A se remarca ca anchetele au vizat cluburi din Franta, Germania, Regatul Tarilor de Jos si Spania.

Concluzie

Intr-o forma sau alta, statele europene din “Europa Civilizata” au ajutat cluburile de fotbal profesioniste cu BANI PUBLICI. Unele dintre ajutoare au fost sanctionate de catre Comisia Europeana, altele au fost aprobate/au fost ignorate. Singura grija a Uniunii Europene este aceea ca aceste ajutoare sa nu creeze concurenta neloiala.

Autostrada “banului public” in fotbalul “Europei civilizate” are multi Kilometri si duce mai departe, in state precum Polonia, Belgia, Slovenia, Portugalia, Italia, etc. Chiar daca domnul Naum nu vrea sa auda de Rusia, belarus sau Kazahstan, aceste tari au raporturi comerciale cu statele Europene din categoria “tari civilizate”. Drept urmare, banii cetatenilor din UE se regasesc in gazul din Rusia si Kazahstan, in echipele care pana in 2022, activau in competitiile UEFA. In special banii platitorilor de taxe din Germania, Franta, Spania, Belgia, Tarile de jos, Cehia si Ungaria.

Sa ne amintim si de echipele care erau/sunt sponsorizate de Gazprom? Fly Emirates si Qatar? Tot din Europa civilizată a domnului Naum. Cert este ca atat Radu Naum cat si alti jurnalisti de propaganda, ofera publicului informatii false, jumatati de adevaruri. Astfel, protejand actuala gasca de infractori din fotbalul romanesc si tinand la distanta CS-urile din Romania de fotbalul profesionist. unul dintre acele CS-uri este CSA Steaua Bucuresti, Club care a investit peste 2 miliioane de euro in Academie, este in top 10 academii din Romania, insa dupa parerea dansului, nu este suficient de profesionist pentru “Europa Civilizata”.
