At the moment it's 99% certain that Franciszek Smuda will be the next coach of the Polish
national team and a manager that will lead us in Euro 2012 at home turf. The new coach has to be

Have you all missed me? Since the Crew had a tough match against No-one this weekend, I took a
couple days off from the Crew Offside to focus on my other project, the Celtic Offside. A little
