“United we stand” and “Make Dinamo great again” are two of the banners displayed around the pitch at home games by our creative Dinamo supporters. I used the term “supporters” intentionally. There is a white-red rebirth provoked by our supporters under the umbrella of the DDB endeavor. The supporters not only kept Dinamo financially alive but more honorably they reignited the belief and enthusiasm in Dinamo. We should be thrilled with our supporters and the accomplishments of DDB program! It is certainly a big deal for supporters to pay players wages, the LPF license fee, and lately to assist the Youth Academy.
Meanwhile, let’s remember who we are. We are the same supporters who patiently watched the lengthy 7 years birth of the first title squad (1955) managed by Angelo Niculescu featuring great players such as Dumitru Nicolae-Nicușor, Bacuț I and II, Calinoiu, Ene I, Neagu, Suru. The torched was passed on to the team managed by Tarian Ionescu and Nicolae-Nicusor and we witnessed greatness and total domination in 1960’s delivered by Dinamo with Parcalab, Fratila, Piti Varga, Lucescu, Nunweiller brothers, who bestowed upon us the “red dogs” nickname and the fighting spirit.
We, the supporters watched the generation of Lucescu, Deleanu, Dinu, Dumitrache, Gergely, Radu Nunweiller that lead the Romanian National squad in Mexico 1970 WC against the Pelé or Bobby Carlton and realized for the first time that our players are as good as any in the world.
We are the same supporters waken at night by the yet fresh vibration sound of the goalpost hit by Augustin...few millimeters that deprived Talnar, Multescu, and the company of a tie match on Anfield Park. That was our incredible team of the 80’s managed by Nicolae - Nicusor and Cornel Dinu, whose journey for the UCL trophy was ended in the semifinal match by the greatest Liverpool of all times featuring Rush and Daglish.
We are the same supporters who patiently waited for Lucescu to build over a span of few years, the great team of 1989/ 1990 of Rednic, Andone, Lupescu, Raducioiu, Lupu, which offered just another semifinals instead of a European trophy. And yes, many of us blamed the referee called Blakenstein, who decided that his Anderlecht Benelux friends should win the game and coincidentally or not like now in LPF competition, back then also there was no VAR in European competition either... That was the squad that we still weep after, considered by many European soccer pundits the next team to dominate the continent.
We are the same faithful supporters who witnessed Cosmin Contra play for Dinamo and European teams and when the right time come to once again coach Dinamo, part of the tradition of Dinamo players developed into the Dinamo spirit who later will prepare the next generation of red dogs to carry on the red-white glory.
And finally, we are the same supporters remembering the tragic death of our captain Cătălin Hîldan on the playing field, a death which thought us that the spirit of Dinamo lives beyond death.
In the age of instant gratification and football manager, not receiving the sickening addiction of immediate results after playing with a more or less imaginary budget might cause hysteria for some weaker souls which instantly would demand satisfaction and a change.. The history and real-life warns us that nothing gets built overnight:
“The two most powerful warriors are patience and time” – Leo Tolstoy.
As such, my fellows red dogs warriors, let us be patient and give the necessary time to the hired professionals by the club to work and do their job and the results we can only hope will come in time as well.
Let’s not get emotionally worked up by few insignificant Liga 1 matches outcome or by referees performances against our team or by click-bate media hateful articles. We know who we are. We are better than this. We are the champions. It is in our DNA. We know what true champions are made of. Our path is one of hard work:
“Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do.” - Pelé.
“When people succeed, it is because of hard work. Luck has nothing to do with success.” – Diego Maradona.
For years we've asked for a football project done by professionals that will produce quality players, brought up in the spirit of Dinamo -through our Youth Academy and second-team - and whom to be promoted deliberately and strategically to the first team. A first squad comprised of Dinamo Youth and experienced players could make Dinamo great again. A smart project in a few years could achieve the necessary objectives of making Dinamo competitive internally / externally and also generate self- funding revenue to finance the team. Until then, Dinamo needs that Mr. Cartacero to find the financial resources necessary for the project to move forward and develop.
As supporters, we have done our part and will continue to do so. So far, the Spanish Armada and specifically the technical director, Mr. Collado, and our own Cosmin Contra are working. They were able to sign experienced players with the potential to resurrect our team and their careers too. This is a good starting point. We have also noticed that the second-team has been reinstated and other necessary departments are created, while professionals are hired.
Sure, the team’s results after 7 rounds are not great but let’s don’t kid ourselves: until this year watching the Dinamo games was a painful proposition. Now, the enthusiasm is back. It commenced with the supporters getting involved. It has continued with the arrival of Contra and the the Spanish Armada. We can chose to look at the glass half- empty or continue to be supportive. Under coach Contra, Dinamo has been dominating its opponents and has a specific game philosophy. Sure, there are many things to improve, including the financial aspects, but we can only trust that the strategy adopted, corroborated with the hard work will over time produce champions once again.
“Champions do not become champions when they win an event, but in the hours, weeks, and months, and years they spend preparing for it. The victorious performance itself is merely a demonstration of their championship character.“- Michael Jordan.
United we stand! Make DINAMO great again!
Hai DINAMO!
