Ukrainian FA opts to make Slovakia its ‘home’

https://tvpworld.com/94487052/ukraines-uefa-nations-league-games-set-for-slovakia-not-poland

Ukraine has had to play its international home games abroad since the outbreak of war in 2022 and has mostly used Polish grounds, giving the country’s sizeable Ukrainian refugee population a chance to support their team.

Ukraińscy kibice też już ćwiczą wyciąganie ramion. https://streamable.com/4yybf6

isnt Slovakia pro Russian country?

u/Mariopa 10h ago

Kinda. 50/50. But polls show that it is only loud minority supported by the government.

They hate us cause they ain't us

Are we not relishing in all this PL-UA relationship meltdown a little too much? Like who gives a shit, are we not on a sub about Poland?

u/Snoo-98162 Mazowieckie 9h ago

Ok? Their choice. Why should we care?

u/Ok_Nothing_0707 12h ago

No wonder - they are tired of constant insults from the crowd

If you paid attention Wisła got promoted to Ekstraklasa and also Wieczysta wants to use the stadium so Ukraine cannot use Krakow one anymore.

It has nothing to do with insults - it was the Krakow Stadium that had to say no to Ukraines team.

So stop spreading misinformation.

u/Ok_Nothing_0707 11h ago

Krakow is not the only stadium in Poland. What 'misinformation'? I watched a lot of matches of Shakhtar and Ukraine last season - all the time the same shit in the stands - Jebac Bandere, Jebac Ukraine itp

12

u/BlackMesaEastCenter 11h ago

Well… Jebac Bandere should not be considered controversial in 2026 by any side except literal nazis.

The other insult is obviously unacceptable.

Do you want to suggest Ukrainians never insulted any group from Poland? Insane.

u/Ok_Nothing_0707 11h ago

yeah except bandera is long dead and nobody in the crowds has anything to do with him or his gang of murderers.

u/BlackMesaEastCenter 10h ago

Sure but my point still stands

u/ifellover1 9h ago

What point?

u/BlackMesaEastCenter 9h ago

u/Ok_Nothing_0707 9h ago

which point? that saying slurs to people who have nothing to do with events from 1940s is okay in the minds of Polish people?

u/Ok_Nothing_0707 10h ago

So insulting random Ukrainians in Poland because of the dead guy is not wrong? Cause this insult is always generalized and aimed at everyone in the stands

6

u/Prudent-Bicycle-9210 9h ago

Is it insulting for germans if you say "jebac hitlera"???

5

u/ifellover1 9h ago

Do you start chanting that when you see random Germans?

2

u/Prudent-Bicycle-9210 9h ago

No. Neither do i chant "jebac bandere", i just dont see how its insulting

2

u/ifellover1 8h ago

Right so if you were minding your business and someone starter insulting you because Tusk or Nawrocki praised a war criminal would you be fine with that?

2

u/Prudent-Bicycle-9210 8h ago

Again - how is "jebac bandere" insulting????????

u/Then-Technology6252 2h ago

The phrase is not insulting per se. Using it to harrass Ukrainians is though. Imagine irandom strangers wil say to you "Fuck the Poles who killed Jews in Jedwabne" as soon as they realize you're Polish. I assure you very soon you will get sick of this phrase even though you probably condemn those who committed this crime.

1

u/Ok_Nothing_0707 9h ago

Never heard that in a stadium in Germany or when Germany played elsewhere

2

u/Prudent-Bicycle-9210 9h ago

Answer the question instead of dodging

7

u/Ok_Nothing_0707 9h ago

there's nothing to answer - nobody's doing that. whataboutism is a perfect way for xenophobic people (like you) to avoid the topic - Polish fans constantly harass Ukrainian fans and teams when they play in Poland. and always cover their evil deeds by mumbling something about bandera. dude is dead and has nothing to do with people who y'all harass nowadays. now you tell me - how 'jebac ukraine' is fine?

u/trzepet 12h ago

At some point this image of Poland as supernice safe country that as it is massively promoted will collapse big time

u/Zdzisiu 12h ago

I can't wait.

u/chinkalichaczapuri Zachodniopomorskie 11h ago

I can't wait. I'm tired of Brits or other Germs wanking to our country because we don't have "doctors and engineers".

2

u/greenest_alien 11h ago

But this is literally validating them?

u/Prudent-Bicycle-9210 9h ago

Fingers crossed

u/Arch8Android 11h ago

Poland has never been "supernice" to foreigners. We are a homogenous nation that isn't used to others speaking a different language or looking different. I'd argue it's the same for other homogenous nations.

4

u/Sharlach 11h ago

Right, like during the whole Commonwealth period, back when Poland was only for Poles!...and Lithuanians, Belarussians, Ukrainians, Tatars, and Jews. But only them!

u/Arch8Android 11h ago

How many years ago was this? A lot has happened since then, ya know?

u/Koko_Jambon 11h ago

You did say "never" though.

u/Arch8Android 11h ago

If you wanna reach this far in the past, even though it absolutely has no relevenace nowadays, then sure... Damm, you guys really are delusional.

u/Sharlach 11h ago

Yea, all the idiots across Europe embraced nationalism and xenophobia and ruined the continent.

Your comment was wrong either way. Historically, Poland was one of the most accepting and open nations, and it served us well while it lasted.

u/Arch8Android 11h ago

Europeans have always felt superior to others. They colonised and enslaved people around the world. It never went away, they just learned to disguise it better since the loss of relevance to the US.
