    First matches without supprises. Maybe only result Bydgoszcz-Jastrzębski Węgiel is a little bit suppraise because Jastrzębski is silver medalist from last season and Bydgoszcz was on 9th place (from 10 in polish league). But Jastrzębski leave some very good players like Plinski, Kadziewicz, Szymanski.

    But Evgeni Ivanov and Niki Ivanov are there. :D These team will have success, I'm sure, the last year as far as I remember Belchatov were champions, but this year will be different I hope.


    And I have a question, why the "super talant" Wlazly still plays in Belchatow :D

    Quote from "Justyna"

    You should ask him :lol: Maybe because Skra pays him a lot, maybe because his wife plays in Skra too, maybe he is patriot hehe :lol:


    Hm, let me make it clear: I personally don't like Mariuzs Wlazly, I don't like his playing and also his behaviour, it seems to arrogant to me. Some people tried to compare him Kazijski, haha, bulshit, Kazijski is a better player and more talanted, although they play in a different position - oppose and wing spiker. About Wlazly, maybe he is patroit, but I'm not interested in this, in other leagues, for example the Italian, the Russian or the French even, he may become better. Of course it's not a insult about polish league, it's good, but the others I mentioned are better.

    hi guys
    how is sinan cem tanık(my best turkish player) playing now?
    can you give me what do you think about his performance in poland league?

    Quote from "AFROMAN"

    in other leagues, for example the Italian, the Russian or the French even, he may become better.


    I don't know exactly what is the level of the Polish league out of teams like Skra. What I know is that the French league average level is going higher and higher but that the French Top Team level (Paris, Tours, Cannes) is not progressing so much. A team like Skra would be without a doubt a very serious candidate for the title if playing in the French league.


    Now I don't know what would be the result of a game between the weakest Polish teams and the weakest French team.


    In France the teams budgets goes from 800 000 euros to 2 millions euros, does someone knows what they are in Poland ?

    hi guys

    His preformance is really good (: In last season he was one of the best player in polish league and maybe even the best in AZS Olsztyn. His team won bronze medal PLS and was on 2nd place in Cup of Poland. He was very good especialy in attack and serve, and also good in receive (had about 63%). He scored the most points by whole season and he was the best server in AZS Olsztyn. In generally classification (i mean players from all teams) he was on 4th place in ranking 'best server', 2nd in 'best spiker' and 11th in 'best scorers/regular season', 4th in' best scorers/play off'.

    Quote from "Armel"

    In France the teams budgets goes from 800 000 euros to 2 millions euros, does someone knows what they are in Poland ?



    siatka.org


    But thats in polish zlotys not in euro :wink2:
    1euro=3,7zlotys

    OK, so these are pretty much the same (excepting for Sosnowieck) and the fact that there are 14 teams in French first league. (but maybe the best of Polish second league team have budgets around 2.5/3 millions slotys)


    Skra's budget is slightly higher than Tours's but not that much.


    Speaking about salaries, one of the higher in France must be Danail Milushev's. He said he was about to earn $150 000 (something like 120 000 €) in Tours. It seems that De Kergret was earning 150 000€.
    For the player that's about half of Zagumny's and Szymanski wages. But for the team, because of French taxes this must be closer.
    (I don't know what are the taxes in Poland, but in France taxes are almost the same amount as the wages.)

    If I'm right we have 3 levels in taxes: 19%, 30% and 40% so players are in the highest level.


    Speaking about French players... :wink2:
