Lechia Gdańsk

[edit]

The first thing I focused on with Lechia was to rework the whole Lechia Gdańsk page. To do that I researched the clubs history, re-writing the the history section, including the historic club names section. The fans section was considerably expanded, providing more detail for the fans of Lechia Gdańsk, and the friendships and rivalries the fans have with other clubs. The colours and badge section was created, highlighting the history of the colours worn by Lechia on their kits, as well as the history of the Lechia badge, and I have researched the clubs sponsors and kit manufacturers used throughout their history. I expanded the records and statistics section, and also created the List of Lechia Gdańsk records and statistics page so that more records and statistics could be listed, including player stats for goals and appearances as well as stadium stats such as modern attendance records.

Managers

[edit]

One of the first areas I completed working on was to complete the history of the clubs managers. I have created a page for each of the known managers in the clubs history. In total I have made 33 manager pages for Lechia and created the List of Lechia Gdańsk managers as a place to list the manages as well as dates of the managers tenure at the club and certain honours managers have won while at the club. The manager profiles I have created, in order of creation, are;

Players

[edit]

(177 +13) Players are the most important aspect of football. The Lechia player pages I have created (excluding those who were also managers of the club), in order of creation, are;

Other players who's profiles would be deleted from Wikipedia due to not having played in the required professional leagues are listed here; User:OLLSZCZ/Lechia Gdańsk players

Associated clubs

[edit]

I want to document the whole history of Lechia, including the two Lechia teams created through the mergers of other teams and teams involved in Lechia's history, such as rivals. This included the creation of Lechia Gdańsk II and Lechia's Academy, giving more information to Lechia's second team and their academy teams, a page for Lechia's official ladies team, Lechia Gdańsk Ladies, creating a page for KL Lechia Gdańsk the athletics department, KK Lechia Gdańsk the cycling department, and Biało-Zielone Ladies Gdańsk a women's rugby sevens team, all three of these teams were formally linked with the football teams as part of the Lechia Gdańsk (sports club). Lechia's history includes the short lived merger of two teams; Olimpia-Lechia Gdańsk and Lechia-Polonia Gdańsk. The latter also resulted in me creating the team page for SKS Stoczniowiec Gdańsk in order to highlight as much of the story and history of this merger as possible. The Polonia Gdańsk page also led to the creation of the Gedania 1922 Gdańsk team page due to both clubs roles in one of Lechia's derby's, the Gdańsk Derby. The first derby page I created was for Lechia's biggest rivalry, the derby between Lechia and Arka Gdynia, the Tricity Derby. I also wanted to create a page highlighting one of the longest fan friendships in Poland, the Lechia Gdańsk & Śląsk Wrocław Fan Friendship. I have also made a profile for clubs whose fans have links to Lechia fans; Pomezania Malbork, Unia Tczew, Czarni Pruszcz Gdański, KP Starogard Gdański, and Olimpia Sztum and those teams who would be a rivalry if they played; KP Jaguar Gdańsk & Portowiec Gdańsk. I have also created AP Orlen Gdańsk, a footballing academy that once worked closely with Lechia.

Lechia have been closely involved with the largest indoor football tournament in Poland since 2010, as a result I created the Amber Cup Tournament highlighting the history of the competition and listing the winners.

Stadia

[edit]

I created the page for the Gdańsk Athletics and Rugby Stadium due to the Lechia Rugby and Athletics teams, as well as the Akademia Piłkarska LG Gdańsk ladies team playing and training at the stadium.

Sponsorships

[edit]

Part of modern clubs history involves sponsorship and kit manufacturers. I have created the following sponsors/manufacturers to highlight the companies who have been involved with Lechia and which have featured on their kits. The sponsors are; Energa SA, Saur Neptun Gdańsk, Totolotek, and Betclic. With the kit manufacturer page I've made being; Sport-Saller and Tico Sportswear.

Seasons

[edit]

Finally, one of the most effective ways of showing a clubs history is through season reviews. I have created the following football season pages for Lechia;

Competitions

[edit]

I created the League Cup in Polish Football due to different League Cups in Poland wrongly being attributed with the Ekstraklasa Cup. Alongside that page I made individual pages for each competition. The Young Leaders Rally Cup (Lechia took part in), Polish League Cup (1977–1978) (Lechia didn't take part in), and Polish League Cup (1999–2002) (Lechia took part in). Despite not every competition linking to Lechia, it does at least provide any readers with a greater understanding of League Cups and the competitions in Polish football.

I have also created reviews of the cups Lechia won, these being the 1982–83 Polish Cup and 1983 Polish SuperCup.

I created the Regional Polish Cup (Pomeranian Voivodeship) as both Lechia and the Lechia II team's reached the final at some point.

While it wasn't a competition, due to the outbreak of the war in Ukraine in 2022 Ukrainian clubs Dynamo Kyiv and Shakhtar Donetsk started a tour to raise money for Ukrainian refugees and Ukrainians fighting for the country. On the Global Tour for Peace Lechia played Shakhtar Donetsk.

Improvements

[edit]

While I have not created these pages, I feel it is important that even those pages I have not created are not forgotten and are still filled with information and not just stubs for those who are interested. The players in Category 1. I have completely written or significantly contributed to their biography/career section for Lechia. The players in Category 2. I have contributed/added less to their biography/career section, but I have added important information other authors have left out. The players in Category 3. are those who's careers with Lechia have been insignificant/short, but I have still written about their time with Lechia. The following pages are of those I have contributed towards;
