Cracovia Stadium is named Józef Pilsudski Stadium not Pope JP2 Stadium.
Early history
"Cracovia’s absence from the League unfortunately lasted only one season. After beating Smigly Wilno, AKS Chorzow and Brygada Czestochowa, the team returned. And the return was so successful that in their first season back Cracovia won the League, becoming the Champion for the fourth time, what was considered as an disgrace for all polish people. Cracovia is still considered as the club of the lowlifes, scoundrels and poor homeless people. It's the very worst thing that ever happened to Krakow. "We're very sorry for our existence" as the Cracovia fans say."wtf? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.79.25.92 (talk) 22:33, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hooliganism?
Wasn't this club and another Krakow football club focused on in one episode of Ross Kemp on Gangs? __meco (talk) 15:41, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Jewish Club and Jude Gang
I have been reading into the rivalry between Cracovia and Wisła, and could use some clarification on a couple points.
All sources agree that early in the rivalry, one of Cracovia's best players (Ludwik Gintel) was Jewish. Some sources additionally claim that Cracovia was founded by Jews. None dispute this additional claim, but I could not find a reliable source for this information, and it might be completely false.
As well, everyone seems to agree that the "Jude Gang" ultras are mostly non-Jewish, working-class Catholics using Jewish imagery to provoke other teams' ultras (mostly Wisła). However, there are additional sources which claim that they are generally nationalists and antisemites, due to their connections to Anty-Wisła (who frequently show Nazi-related imagery). Other sources claim the club is generally seen as a fairly non-antisemitic one, particularly compared to Wisła. On the other hand, some have claimed that Wisła ultras aren't even sincerely antisemitic, and are purely trying to provoke Cracovia supporters. It would be a stretch to call either club's ultras anti-racist or anti-fascist on par with Sankt Pauli or Celtic, but someone should definitely clear this up.DLMacLeod (talk) 21:32, 19 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Objection, because these letters [KS to MKS] change often, and Cracovia is also called MKS Cracovia into hockey. I propose to change to "Cracovia (football)". Soorma221 (talk) 11:34, 30 March 2022 (UTC) Struck as blocked as a sockpuppet of nominator[reply]
Support As it's the club's name. Per WP:TWODABS, a hatnote will solve the DAB issue with the ice hockey team. Cheers, Number57 21:59, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

MKS Cracovia → Cracovia (football) – MKS Cracovia is the legal entity that owns the pro ice hockey + football clubs Abcmaxx (talk) 14:11, 15 October 2022 (UTC) This is a contested technical request (permalink).

I don't think this is uncontroversial. There was an RM about this in March. And I've had a look at the sources cited and several of them use the MKS bit. Dr. Vogel (talk) 17:31, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
This is definitely not uncontroversial as per WP:PCM, given there has been previous discussion. -Kj cheetham (talk) 10:33, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The above discussion failed to mention that several redirects from MKS Cracovia actually relate to the ice hockey section. There are two organisations: KS Cracovia, which is basketball, handball and the youth academies, and MKS Cracovia, which is the ice hockey and the football first team. Both Cracovia (ice hockey) and this football team are called MKS Cracovia, so either we move to MKS Cracovia (football), or just revert to the WP:COMMONNAME, which is Cracovia (football). The same has been done for example for CWKS Resovia and Stal Rzeszów. We also have Rangers F.C. and not the The Rangers Football Club Ltd (the legal name) and all these nonsensical moves have created an almighty mess with the categories.

I would also add that the proposer of the previous move is an account that was blocked for sockpuppetry, unsure why this was relisted. A oppose with a valid point was struck out for the same sockpuppet weirdly enough opposing their own nomination? Either way the previous proposal should have been struck out regardless, as the sockpuppetry was related specifically to RM's of Polish football related articles.

Oppose - the 'MKS' is not the 'legal entity', it is an abbreviation of the club full name, as is standard (hence why we have Liverpool F.C. and not 'Liverpool Football Club' etc. GiantSnowman 18:19, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Categorically incorrect. MKS Cracovia is the owner and limited company, the club is called Cracovia. Liverpool FC isn't a multi-sports club nor Polish so absolutely irrelevant. "KS Cracovia" used to be one club with many sections including football. As football and ice hockey became bigger logistical and financial challenges the sports club sections split into legally separate entities. They retained the license agreement allowing it to use the crest, colours and Cracovia name but couldn't call themselves KS Cracovia as that was already taken. So they added an "M" for that reason. The WP:COMMONNAME is Cracovia, MKS Cracovia SSA is the legal owner of the football and ice hockey teams. This move has just messed up a whole load of redirect and categories too.
