Atom Sopot has about 182 000 euro budget hole and is closer than further to be Bankrupt
The City will control financial elements in the Club now.
Maybe the City will help but first point which should be eliminate is too much Players. 'The Players must play not relax on tribune and take money' said Sopot Boss.
There is a problem... but details about it are rumours. Foreign players and coaches have contracts in their home currencies, and Polish currency has weakened over several months. In mid December, Euros were 14% more expensive than in early August. Improved slightly since, but this unexpected expense is believed to be the problem. After match with Muszyna, sports director Marek Brandt announced to reporters that he would resign at the end of 2011. However, he apparently had not told the club president about this, so there has been much confusion...
Club officials have not said much, but You may read the opinions of the president of city of Sopot here on sport.pl. (who also include a Milena Radecka photo, apparently to make politician words more interesting.)
Any updates? How is this club now?
I can't imagine a champion club will break down.
Besides, what about Gdansk men's basketball and volleyball teams? Their men's basketball team is ranking top now (while volleyball the bottom...), are these teams under such influence as well?
