Gdansk will play centre stage during this issue as the UEFA
Euro2012 Football Championships take place in Poland
and Ukraine. In addition to a look at Polish football and
info for fans we take a look at the last time Messrs Platini,
Boniek and Trapattoni were involved in football in the city.
The match is recognised as the biggest game in local club
Lechia Gdansk’s history and was set against the backdrop
of Martial Law. Read more about it on pg 10. Photo:

Regular readers will remember the story of Sean Lester,
the League of Nations High Commissioner in Gdansk/
Danzig in the 1930s. In this issue we look at the story
of another ‘Irishman’ who played an important rule
opposing the Nazis in the city and is buried here in the
city. Read more about Bishop Edward O’Rourke on pg 72.
