Reasons To Adopt

Here is the argument for Widzew Łódź: Poland, Poland Ekstraklasa, and a ground called Widzew Łódź Stadium. A second team should give you something your first one cannot, and this is a different country's whole weather system.

Loaded cabinet
8 distinct honours on record, including Ekstraklasa (First Division). Adopt them and you inherit expectation, which is more fun than it sounds when the trophies keep coming.
Close to the pitch
Widzew Łódź Stadium holds about 18,018. You can hear the defenders shouting at each other, which is the single best argument for lower-capacity football.
You get a nickname
Known as Widzewiacy Czerwona Armia (Red Army). That is your new shorthand, your search term and your excuse for buying a scarf.
Easy weekend
Łódź Władysław Reymont Airport (LCJ) is about 9km from the ground, and Łódź Niciarniana railway station is 0km closer still. A home fixture is a genuinely doable two-night trip.
