FK Jedinstvo N.B.

FK Jedinstvo is Serbian football club based in Novi Bečej. The first official match in this town is played before more than one hundred years, in 1909. Jedinstvo is founded in 1927, and so far the biggest success is playing in the third league even before 30 years. Club curently plays in Vojvođanska liga "Istok", which is 4th tier of Serbian football. They play their home matches at the town´s stadium. Stadium have only one stand with capacity of 360 seats. This stands extends the full length of the pitch, but only in the middle have seats and a roof. A small stadium but looks nice.

FK Borac Zrenjanin

Football club Borac (a very common name, means a fighter) is from Zrenjanin. It is located near the town´s stadium where I watched the match. Founded in 1921, curently plays in PFL Zrenjanin, which is 5th tier of Serbian football. They play their home matches at the stadium which according to some sources called "stadion u Dolji" or simply "stadion FK Borac". According to the same source, the capacity is 2000 spectators, although they only have a small wooden stand. Club uses the ground at this location since 1955. In their long history they have won the trophies. These are two Cups of Football Association of Zrenjanin, in year 1999 and 2011.

Wednesday. What man could do when he is on vacation. To see some football. After lunch I decided to go with car to this match in the 130 km away Zrenjanin. Zrenjanin is the largest city in Banat district and the sixth largest city of Serbia. I think such a great city deserves a premiership (superleague) club. It was the home town of FK Proleter from 1947 until 2005. Today, FK Banat plays its games at town´s stadium in Karađorđev Park. FK Banat founded in 2006, when Budućnost from Banatski Dvor and Proleter merged. After three seasons in the first rank of competition, playing third season in the second rank of the competition, which is called first Serbia league. This stadium in Karađorđev Park have a capacity of 13500 seats or a total of about 18000 spectators. He was released in a function in 1954, and has been reconstructed in 1967. Seats were placed on the east and the west stand, which is only partially covered. At the stadium scoreboard is digital, which of course did not work today. It is interesting that the players on the pitch coming from an underground tunnel. It was expected more in this match, but there was almost no chance for goal. And what is the rarity, only two corners (first in 81.minute!) both for guests. Regardless of the result It was my pleasure to come to this stadium. I forgot to say that the admission was free, so I always somehow feel sorry because I do not have precious piece of paper in the possession, a ticket.

 

 

FK Proleter Njegoševo

Football club Proleter is from the village Njegoševo near Bačka Topola. Founded in 1933, curently plays in PFL Subotica, which is 5th tier of Serbian football. Their ground: is located right at the entrance to the village. Nothing special, only one covered small stand, with three rows of wooden slats, but for this kind of club this is great.

U-19 Tournament "Stevan Ćele Vilotić"

These days once again in Subotica is playing football with European connotations. One of the best known and most respected tournament, when it comes under the age 19 of national selection, Memorial tournament "Stevan Ćele Vilotić" this year was held by the 18 time. I have unfortunately been present only the last, third day. I am sure that the previous day were very good and interesting game, the results speak in favor of that.
These matches are played at four stadiums in Subotica and surrounding area. These stadiums, of course I have already visited, and these are stadiums in Bačka Topola, Čantavir and two in Subotica, the stadiums where play FK Spartak and FK Bačka 1901. On that third day I watched the first half of the first game since the second game started an hour later.

Bikovo is a village in the Subotica municipality. From my house is about 15 kilometers away, the crow flies. However with asphalt road has to be about ten kilometers more. So I decided to go on a bike, field roads. GPRS in my head and through corn fields and dusty roads, I arrived at the destination. Now and never more.

My road :))

The first football club in the Bikovo was founded in 1952. As far I know, only two names have been altered in the name of the club, Bikovo and Poljoprivrednik. In the early nineties the club had a renaissance in higher rank but mostly played in the lowest, sixth rank of competition as well these days. On the ground there is only one small stand on the west, it seems to me that this is construction of railway wagon. Guests, who also have a long name, have won. I visited them last season in a game with also lot of goals.

SD Preporod, Novi Žednik

Novi Žednik is a village located in the Subotica municipality.  I do not know why I decided to go by train to the match. My last rail journey, to Senta, was a disaster. Today I missed the kick off, because the train on the route of twenty kilometers in the arrival was late an hour! Anything is possible in Serbia. But somehow, I came to the match. Five league match, so is football. Admission was free of course. Once all on this ground was in better condition than it is today, but such are the times. Otherwise, I met a couple guys I know. When I told why I was here, looked at me strangely. Groundhopping? They love  football and their club, but grounds... Preporod even has its own group of fans, local boys, who are called Red Devils. Today they were not in the element, even though they organized to go to away games against their biggest rivals, such as Čantavir. Hosts had lost today's match, but their place is in the middle of the table as well for years and the fans are happy for another season of football in their village.

 What is the territory?

Yugo, pride of car industry in the former Yugoslavia

Best place for watching is the roof!
