Jinan Xingzhou Club's withdrawal from the Chinese League: history and impact.
Introduction. In the early morning of February 16, Jinan Xingzhou Club, a team in Shandong Central League, issued an official statement announcing its withdrawal from the Chinese Football Professional League. Behind this decision was a series of internal problems exposed during the winter training, as well as misunderstandings and antagonisms that expanded in the **. This article will delve into the history of Xingzhou Club, the occurrence and handling of internal problems, the impact of the decision to withdraw on other teams, and the new situation of Qingdao Red Lion in the middle league.
1. The journey of Xingzhou Club.
Jinan Xingzhou Club, originated from the Jinan Phoebe 88 football team established in 2013, has experienced the transformation from the amateur league to the championship and then to the championship of the second division. At the end of the 2021 season, they successfully rushed to the second level as the champion of the Chinese Championship and achieved a "continuous jump". This former grassroots amateur team, in the face of various difficulties, actually won the championship of the Chinese Second League last year and pushed itself onto the stage of the Chinese First League. This process is not only the development process of Xingzhou Club, but also the epitome of the rise of grassroots power in Chinese football.
Second, the internal problems and handling.
Behind the success, however, was a disagreement within the new coaching staff on January 23. The club tried to solve the problem internally, based on the principle of unity, however, unfortunately it backfired. On February 5, a self-a** suddenly broke the news and put the internal problems of the Xingzhou Club in front of the public. What's even more surprising is that this ** was quickly spread by domestic self-** and fans who did not know the truth, and escalated into a malicious and false attack on the Internet. This quickly escalated the conflict between the club and the new investors into two extreme opposites.
3. The club's attitude and withdrawal decision.
In the aftermath of the incident, the club expressed its dissatisfaction with the misunderstanding of the domestic self-esteem and fans in an official statement. They made it clear: "If we can't afford to play, we can't play." I'd rather die standing than kneel and bow my head. This resolute attitude shows that the club is not willing to bow to certain forces because of financial problems, and is even more unwilling to give up halfway under the pressure of **. After several unsuccessful attempts to find a new sponsor, the club made the difficult decision to withdraw from the Chinese Professional Football League.
Fourth, the impact of the withdrawal of Xingzhou Club.
The withdrawal of Xingzhou FC has had a profound impact on Chinese football. The first to bear the brunt is Qingdao Red Lions, who have been on the line of supplementing the Chinese League, but on February 4, the Football Association officially issued an announcement confirming that Yunnan Yukun has obtained the qualification for the new season of the professional league, which makes it more difficult for the Red Lion to supplement the Chinese League. In addition, the withdrawal of Xingzhou Club has also had a big impact on the preparation and season arrangements of other teams.
5. The future outlook of Qingdao football.
Despite the challenges posed by the Xingzhou club's exit, Qingdao Red Lion Club was not discouraged. They are actively preparing for the new season in spring training, although there is no news of the current recruitment, but Li Kai and Fang Xinfeng, who have had experience in the Chinese Super League, are trying out in the team. For the home stadium of the new season, the Red Lions are expected to set up their home stadium at last season's Fudi Tiantai Stadium due to the unavailability of the West Coast University City Stadium. In the future, Qingdao fans can further look forward to Qingdao, the "football city", with two Chinese Super League teams, one Chinese A team, one women's A team, one Women's B team, one Fifth Super League team, and one Fifth A team.
6. The current situation and future of Chinese football.
The withdrawal of Xingzhou Club is a hurdle in the development of Chinese football, which allows people to see the rise and challenge of grassroots forces. It's also a warning that while the club is growing, both internal management and external management are equally important. In the context of the overall development of Chinese football, how to balance the management of clubs, the cultivation of players and the healthy operation of professional leagues will be an important issue for Chinese football. From the withdrawal of Xingzhou Club, we may be able to get some enlightenment and cause deep thinking about the current situation of Chinese football.
VII. Conclusion. The withdrawal of Xingzhou Club is not only a departure of the team, but also a test on the road to the development of Chinese football. Although it is regrettable, we believe that in the vigorous development of Chinese football, more clubs will emerge and add new vitality to Chinese football. Looking forward to the future of Chinese football and looking forward to more exciting moments. The charm of football lies in its unpredictability and unpredictability, just like the change of scores on the field, the future of Chinese football is full of infinite possibilities.
