This
letter is another in a series of attempts, our fans, that we turn
attention to the problems of what has our lovely club Velež.
Since domestic football institutions are not doing anything to help us,
moreover they making our life more miserable, we decided that this
letter be sent to you, umbrella institutions Football UEFA and FIFA. We
do not need any privileges from you, we wish only that your's influence
can help Velež and football in Bosnia and Herzegovina. We will start
with most current story and that is that until the end of rest of this
championship is only two games left, unfortunately our Velež fights for
survival and the only real danger is NK Orašje.
Nothing unusual would have been if this was not a ''private club'' of
one of the main officials of the Football/Soccer Association of Bosnia
and Herzegovina, Iljo Dominković. All media is about the survival of NK
Orašje in the most elite rank because the official concerned, which is a
public secret, Iljo Dominković began negotiate to purchase points,
fixing the remaining matches in which NK Orašje to be the winner and
ensure survival of his own team. We beg you for a little intensive
monitor of the situation in our league championship to the end.
As a second, longer lasting problem lead us to our stadium. As you all
know FK Velež is, until the last minute played at the stadium under
Bijeli Brijeg in Mostar when War (1992 – 1995) begun in our City. Our
team FK Velež was expelled from our stadium Bijeli Brijeg and now plays
on the lawn near Mostar, which does not provide normal conditions for
playing, on the meadow where visiting fans can not get there if the game
a little at risk due to the condition of present situations. We do not
have appropriate lighting for night games because that is a luxury, we
do not remember when we played a home game under the floodlights, which
is tearfuly sad. Several years ago, you (UEFA) have donated money to
build a stadium as part of the project “Goal” and you are probably happy
because you helped develop soccer in Bosnia and Herzegovina, but the
public remained in shock when they learned that the money you donated
was gone to build a private stadium under ownership of Mr. Iljo
Dominković.
That money went to build stadiums NK Orašje, a club that has emerged,
1996, the club which comes from the place where he lives, where barely
20 000 people live although it is a fact for the municipality a place
means there are less residents although behold all that aside, the
biggest reason why is just NK Orašje received the donation is Iljo
Dominković, one of the main leaders Football/Soccer Federation of Bosnia
and Herzegovina, the man who was born in Orašje.
Whatever your criteria was, the club that barely 10 years exist, the
club that never achieved a noticeable result on any level, could not get
the privilege to be honored with a modern stadium. Interesting is how a
small place gets such a stadium with a capacity of 5500 fans. After
construction, the stadium has never been filled to full capacity, even
to the half was not amended, to be 2700 fans. We do not hate that club,
we do not have anything against them, and we are glad that any sports
collective in Bosnia and Herzegovina is progressing well as the NK
Orašje, but it is funny that their club passed our club Velež. Our club
Velež has always played outstanding roles in the former Yugoslavian
Championships, which was sometimes considered as one of the stronger
leagues in Europe, the club that played Quarterfinals UEFA Cup, the club
that organized every year one of the strongest winter warm-up
tournaments in Europe, the club who brought the aces as Meho Kodro
(Barcelona, Real Sociedad), Hasan Salihamidžić (Hamburg, Bayern,
Juventus), Sergej Barbarez (Hamburg, Bayer L.), Dušan Bajević, Enver
Marić, Vahid Halilhodžić, Boro Primorac, Blaž Slišković and a lot of
players who played outstanding roles in European football. Must say that
Velež youth and school was one of the best in Yugoslavia, even Velež
was once called Yugoslavian Ajax because it brought perhaps the largest
number of football masters in Yugoslavia and on the Balkans.
But since we are left without the stadium, we are reduced to these low
levels. Politics destroy us, we are the club for which were playing
Serbs and Croats and Muslims, and the club that they like, Serbs and
Croats and Muslims, and so therefore we can not succeed, because today,
main conditions for development of the club in Bosnia and Herzegovina
national prejudice that we rejected smoothly and declared as everyone’s
club, regardless of nationality. Must to emphasize that in our
championship, Premier League of Bosnia and Herzegovina, champions are
determined by the national key and if you move little closer in issues
you may notice that champions the principle of alternating the Serbian
club, Croation club, Muslim club.
This season champion is HŠK Zrinjski, last year was FK Modriča, before
that was FK Sarajevo. Which means that the champion of Premier League of
Bosnia and Herzegovina and a Cup winner can not be the clubs with the
same sign of nationality in same season.
Check!
We hereby send this mesage to you in need of assistance and to help us
in order to get a normal stadium, where our Velež can play and where our
children can continue legacy of our beloved club VELEŽ. By doing that
it is the most important things for our progress and that Stadium which
is our greatest problem. We still have problems but we can solve them
alone, while this is the largest and undoubtedly we can not do this
alone without your help. Our desire is to return to our old stadium
under Bijeli Brijeg upon which this HŠK Zrinjski now plays, or to help
us in building a new stadium in Mostar, which at the moment we as a club
we can not afford without someone else helping. Our club VELEŽ deserves
it, because it is not from yesterday, this club has a success, this
club has a tradition, has fans, this club is loved.Our club played great
in the role in the second world war, this club has had several heroes
who fought against fascist. In this difficult time for our country, when
hated is expressed on all sides, when criminals holds the fate of the
state, when all human values lost their meaning, when the morale fell to
a low level, we hope that the love of football can be strong enough to
win over all the hardships and that your love for football can see this
dream come true with your help.
We hope that this letter will reach you and you'll be willing to help us and our beloved club FK VELEŽ.
Best regards to all of you from Mostar!
We are friends from Mostar, all of us connect one love FK VELEŽ
