[March 25] Matei Stanei, former Catalina coach
(dare to) speak. Again
Matei Stanei, former Catalina coach (and also the main coach
at national team for former champion Aurelia Dobre), spoke again
about the real situation, today, at the General meeting of the RGF.
During the press interviews after the RGF meeting, Stanei told
to the press that "I didn't afford to stop the training of
my Club girls for more than 3...5 days at maximum [contrary to the
national team which didn't have proper training since the Athens
return-our note]. I have accused Bitang of many things, among those
are her language used with the girls [verbal abuses-our note] and
many other things which I don't want to remember."
Belu was given the meeting hall for his press conference, Matei
Stanei spoke to the press mainly in the street, at the building
exit.
Sooner or later, things will reverse, be sure of this...Matei Stanei
is now the "Nelson Mandela" or "Malcolm X" of
Romanian Gymnastics, because of his courage to confront " The
Gods" of Romanian Gymnastics-as he labeled B&B's. Every
fire starts with a small spark, every Revolution start with a leader
speaking to the (afraid until then) people, every Spring came after
first cracks on ice (Oana Petrovschi as gymnast, followed by Matei
Stanei as a coach, now).
If so many peoples seems to dislike them (B&B's),
"they are no longer representative",write today "Ziarul"
from Bucharest. Adrian Stoica, RGF General Secretary: "Whith
each day passing, more people argues about you (B&B's), this
mean you are no longer representative. And
Matei Stanei (former Catalina Ponor coach) , let me tell you,
is not looking for scandal, don't lie, don't want troubles. He have
a honest position (spinal column)!" -for

Matei Stanei -"The Coach of The Year"
# For his courage in breaking the "Omerta Law" installed
at RGF more than 25 years ago, among all local Club coaches (who
don't dare to express in public their real opinions, most of them
being against B&B);
# for his determination to improve the situation by removing "the
Evil Force" in Romanian gymnastics- considered by him and many
others, being Bitang which have a bad influence over Belu and girls,
due to her verbal abuses on them and the total control over Belu
decisions, including previous cases (like Petrovschi) of imposing
girls to train even if their condition didn't allow;
# for his courage to expose (during the RGF meeting today and previous
press conference) the real problems of Romanian Gymnastics National
Team and their source-B&B and their personal interests;
...For all these, Mr.Matei Stanei is named by the
romanian-gymnastics.com, as "The Coach of the Year".
