Life / Polish people are the most ignorant people in the world! [331]


And the English

Let's not forget trolls like the OP either :)

Love / Polish women are the most beautiful in the world! [1718]

But that pic I posted is of Joanna Krupa who is regarded as the world's top model at the moment. Her sister is also pretty hot and doing very well for herself in the modelling business too.

News / Will EURO 2012 be a proud moment for Poland and its people or set back Poland 20 years? [86]


Is this a fact according to gdyniaguy or a fact attributed to a genuine study into the habits of football fans?


Really? When I was in Germany and Austria that's exactly what I did as did a lot of my friends. I also met a lot of other football fans whilst doing this. Who wants to spend 3 days between games in a city centre sitting in a bar when there are plenty of other things to go and see that you might not get chance to see again. What you say might be true of English football fans though.


There's a difference between what people are asking and what they are selling for. There's a lot of repeat posters on the thread on this forum who have failed to sell their tickets at the ridiculous prices they've been asking. Furthermore anyone who pays 15x fave value for a ticket is an idiot IMO.


So have I and I've seen a hell of a lot of crap in Spain. Spain was a bit of a hole before it joined the EU back in the 80s and they've done pretty well out of the EU funds which have helped restore many of their crumbling cities, building new motorways, airports etc. Poland is still recovering from 45 years of a Russian puppet government (thanks to your government of the day) and has only been in the EU 8 years. Kraków, Wrocław and Gdansk have beautifully restored old towns so even if people don't venture outside those cities there's more for them to see and do than the likes of Newcastle, Sheffield, Manchester and Liverpool did back in 1996.

Sorry, you have that wrong. Polish hooligans will not attack random fans unlike English hooligans. Most of their fights are pre-arranged with other hooligan groups. They have their own honour system and will punish their own for bringing shame to their group if anyone attacks a random, non hooligan fan from another club or country. If there's any trouble it's likely to haver been pre-arranged or will be between hooligan groups and the ochrona/policja.

I know many ticketless fans who are going over and those who aren't going have been put off by the stupid price of accommodation not because they think there is a likelihood of trouble.

Real Estate / Poland's apartment prices continue to fall [1844]

Prices will also fall if people can't afford to buy either.

Law / Polish Citizenship for a foreigner whose parents was born in Poland [174]

Find the website of the Polish embassy pertaining to your country of residence and there should be a passport/citizenship section with all the information you need. If your parents didn't renounce their Polish citizenship then according to Polish law you already have citizenship automatically regardless of where you were born. If it's a passport you're after then the website will explain what you need to do to get a Polish passport.

Travel / Wroclaw Euro 2012 - how much zloty I should be taking with me? [16]

More than enough unless you are staying in 5 star hotel.

Life / Polish people are the most ignorant people in the world! [331]


Arrogance and ignorance abound in this statement. And the OP calls us the most ignorant people in the world lol

News / Polish baby boom, but not in Poland [40]


I was born in England too but that was more down to Churchill and Attlee.

Wroclaw Boy could be right with his figures because there's still a lot of people around from the initial post war generation and their children, me being one of them, so add those to the 2004 onwards immigrants then the number is easily over a million.

UK, Ireland / Sooo many Polski Sklep in the UK, LOL [64]

Depends on what the Polski sklep sells. We have a couple in the town centre, one sells everything out of a packet the other is more of a deli and sells mostly wędliny and kiełbasy. There is a big difference in taste between the bland British hams & sausages and the continental ones.

Have you ever tried Kubus or any of the juices made by Tymbark? If you haven't I recommend you do. I think you'll find they have more flavour than the other bland stuff you buy from Tesco, Asda and Sainsbury's.

Have you ever thought that these shops might have been set up by enterprising Poles who have identified a gap in the market? I remember when I was a kid we use to have 3-4 continental shops/Polish shops in my town but we eventually lost them all. In recent years I've been able to but a lot of the stuff I enjoyed when I was a kid without having to fill my suitcase up with grocery products after a holiday in Poland. Also these shops have usually been set up in units that may be left empty and boarded up and surely it's better to have something a bit different on the high street rather than another charity shop, pound shop or fast food joint.

UK, Ireland / Sooo many Polski Sklep in the UK, LOL [64]


Did I say orange juice? I don't see anywhere in my post that mentioned a specific flavour but I'm assuming you haven't had a close look at what Kubus actually is.


Ah, sorry. I didn't realise we had such an expert and connoisseur in our midst. My taste buds must defer to your greater knowledge.


So in other words you're just another troll making ignorant, ill informed statements in order to provoke an argument


VAT, business rates, income tax and NI contributions all going to the British exchequer. If you know a way how these can be sent to Poland please let me know so I can inform my accountant who can then do the same for me.

UK, Ireland / Sooo many Polski Sklep in the UK, LOL [64]


Haha Yes, there's a big M&S on Marszałkowska and in Złote Terasy but then again one of the founders was from Poland ;)


I should do, I was born here and run my own business but I am no expert which is why I employ an accountant. I guess you aren't either which is why your statement


doesn't stand up to close scrutiny.

UK, Ireland / Sooo many Polski Sklep in the UK, LOL [64]


Why should it puzzle you? What is wrong with keeping in touch with your roots?

Life / Polish people are the most ignorant people in the world! [331]

I wonder how many billions that takes out of the UK economy. Send them back, that's what I say. How dare they spend their money outside the UK?

News / Polish baby boom, but not in Poland [40]

Are they giving away council houses somehwere?

Is it just Polish workers who claim tax credits and receive child benefit or are the Indian, Chinese, Irish, French, British etc etc not entitled to them?

Genealogy / THE MEANING AND RESEARCH OF MY POLISH LAST NAME, SURNAME? [4501]

Could be Lithuanian or maybe even Greek.

Law / How many years to study in Poland to receive a Polish passport / citizenship? [6]

You have to be resident in the country for 5 years before you can apply. I am not sure if your time as a student counts towards those 5 years.

Life / Polish people are the most ignorant people in the world! [331]


I hope they're spending their money on sangria, chorizo and calamares then instead of looking for British products in a Tienda de Inglés.

Law / How many years to study in Poland to receive a Polish passport / citizenship? [6]

Resident means living there. Like I said, as a student that may not necessarily count as part of your 5 years. It depends where you come from originally and what agreements the Polish government may have with your country of origin. If you are from an EU country then studying will count towards those 5 years but it may not count from a non EU country.

Life / Polish people are the most ignorant people in the world! [331]


Check his other posts, they're all of a similar nature.

Law / How many years to study in Poland to receive a Polish passport / citizenship? [6]

The best place would be the official Polish embassy website from your country of origin.

Travel / What do you think about hitchhikers in Poland? [33]

So you think it's only Poles and Polish hitch hikers with this kind of attitude? A very narrow minded attitude you have.

News / Polish baby boom, but not in Poland [40]

And as far as I'm concerned the only people who should get assistance are those who have contributed to the system regardless of where they have come from.

History / Cowes prepares to celebrate Polish Heroes during World War II [10]

The Soviet Russians did most of the killing as well. Their battle tactics went along the lines of bombard the hell out of whatever stood in their way then throw loads of men at whatever was left standing. They didn't care how many people died be it military or civilian, enemy or ally.

History / Cowes prepares to celebrate Polish Heroes during World War II [10]

On their own? So the Western Front was an irrelevance then?

History / Cowes prepares to celebrate Polish Heroes during World War II [10]

And without the allies supplying 16.5million tons of goods to Soviet Russia via the Artic convoys, the Persian corridor and the Pacific route then Russia would not have been in a position to keep up the fight and would have been defeated.

UK, Ireland / Sooo many Polski Sklep in the UK, LOL [64]


There's one on our high street that sells stuff cheaper than the supermarket. Doesn't matter if you're Polish, Pakistani or English, you tend to shop where stuff is cheapest.

Life / Let`s compare prices of services and products in Poland [359]

As a regular visitor to Warsaw I'd advise anyone not to pay more than 12PLN for a beer in a bar. If businesses are going to get greedy then the off licences will do a roaring trade.

Feedback / How about Helped Somebody feature ? [9]

How about an automated "Re-direct to Google" feature when some really dumb questions are asked. I think 90% of questions could easily be answered by doing a simple Google search.

Life / Let`s compare prices of services and products in Poland [359]


Don't go to that cellar jazz bar on the Rynek up by the Mariacki then, you'd definitely pay more than 10 there.


Only place where I'd pay that is the Browaria on Krakowskie Przedmiescie.

News / The Political Circus of Poland [306]

I thought Lato was a joke until Tomaszewski came out with that BS. He's finally become the clown Cloughie said he was back in 1973. However, he's still the hero of one of my favourite footballing memories :D
