In which fans of ASU Politehnica put on one hell of a pyro display during their 4-1 win over AS Nadrag in the Romanian fifth division, with plumes of thick flare smoke billowing over the pitch while play continues almost obliviously…

Holy fifth division flares Batman! I can’t imagine how crazy it gets in the third division… When do they bring in the napalm?
I don’t know, I suppose in the Champions League, but our teams fail to get there year after year. In the first division we only bring some tanks and a mild air strike, with missiles and stuff.
To put this into context, an English equivalent of this match would be Alfreton Town vs Tamworth
At first I thought it was pretty cool.
Then it began to become obvious that the players couldn’t even see their own hands in front of them (let alone the ball).
So my question is, what was the point?
Did the fans come to see their team play, or choke them with acrid smoke?
Funny way to support your team…

Kane..?
It’s not that low. POLI TIMISOARA relegated in the 2nd division than the team split and the fans format another team wich started from the 5th division. This team (Poli Timisoara) played against Man City 2 years ago in Europa League. Google it.
There is a big point. The former team was relegated by the Romanian Football Federation to the second division after lots of other problems the team had with the federals. The supporters consider the Federation to be MAFIA. After that, the team was redrawn from all competitions so the supporters created their own team … this is a team started by them, playing in the 5th division, with money gathered by them … and it is a statement against the corrupt Romanian football authorities
