“Yes, it will be possible to do all that, but what does that have to do with the country? The state or local government will provide land for the implementation of the project. It was similar with “Arena Rīga” – the state with Kirov Lipman drove piles for so long that in the end they decided that the company “Merks” would build it all with their own money, then sold it on. But it was not related to state spending,” journalist Armands Puče tries to explain the situation in the TV24 program “Dienas personība ar Velta Puriņu”.

Of course, the state spent the land there, bought a scoreboard for the time of the championship, for which no one reported afterwards, and so on, but that’s a jerksays Puche, noting that the most important thing is the common fund, the understanding of what is public money is so strange to us.

Football players should especially think about this topic – what does capacity mean, how big do we want to build, etc

But what will happen if we don’t build this stadium? What will happen if we do not participate in any competitions? Shall we go to Estonia to play? “Yes, that’s it it looks bad,” smiles Puche.

He draws attention to the fact that the football industry itself is responsible for its sport and is also responsible for it.
