The position of the coach was weakening in the club from Reymont with each game. Suffice it to say that the White Star recently – and only the second time in the season – won over a month ago. On October 24, the newcomer Podbeskidzie Bielsko-Biała came to Krakow and lost 0: 3. In the next four appearances, Skowronek’s players collected only one point.
The Saturday’s defeat with Zagłębie Lubin spilled the cup of bitterness. Wisła was leading from the 55th minute after Felicio Brown Forbes hit the net, but less than a quarter of an hour later Lorenco Simić equalized. The decisive blow – both for the White Star and the future of Lark – was delivered by Kacper Chodyna, who finished the Copper Counter.
It was too much for the Vistula authorities. On Saturday, just before midnight, they informed about the release of Skowronek.
“On Saturday, November 28, the Management Board of Wisła Kraków made a decision regarding the future of Artur Skowronek, who ceased to act as the coach of the first team of Biała Star. The owners and the management of the club would like to thank the coach for his contribution to rebuilding the team, and above all for undertaking a year ago and implementing a successful mission to rescue a team that struggled last season. Thank you and good luck in your future career! ” – we read on wisla.krakow.pl.
The chairman of the club’s supervisory board, Tomasz Jażdżyński, also noted on Twitter that not only the coach is responsible for scoring just 10 points in 11 games this season. “Coach Skowronek took up a task a year ago that nobody wanted to take on. For this he deserves respect and gratitude. Today we are forced to make a difficult decision. The coach is not the only person in the locker room responsible for the current situation. We will take it into account in the future. “- wrote Jażdżyński.
The new coach will start working on Reymont at a very thankless moment. There are three very demanding meetings ahead of the White Star. On Friday, he will play against Cracovia in the derby, then he will take on Legia Warszawa, to close the calendar year in Poznań against the local Lech.
