"From the cradle to the grave, one city — one club."
The Legia Warsaw football club founded in 1916, enjoyed a strong and organised fan movement since the Eighties. It was the first fan organisation of this kind. The legendary tribune of the stadium ("Żyleta", eng. “razor”) is the centre of fan life. Every match, it is a great spectacle for which all generations unite. As a fan movement it lives with a double sided opinion of hooligans and football lovers. The Legia Football Club and its fans played an important role in organising the rightist demonstrations in Warsaw about ten years ago. Since then, they try to counter the negative views by organising, or participating in, charitable activities, using the strength of their organisation in a positive way.
