    And he's from Gliwice (Gleevicher), historic medieval town and the site of Nazi concentration camp annexed to Auschwitz. The town also produces it's share of Polish international footballers including Lukas Podolski of Germany.... Her joke, not mine:frown:

    If nothing else we've can finally get the West stand bogs sorted out! My joke, not hers. Wheeeyyy!! :)

    Soz, I should have posted the result as the thread went a bit haywire. After initially failing to grasp the basic concept, Tyke1 came from nowhere with a wild stab in the dark and won the prize.

    Out of interest the Glivice concentration camp was over 30miles from Auschwitz,and although part of the admin area,Glivice was a work camp repairing railway stock rather than a death camp in the Auschwitz/Birkenau mould.However the town was
    really the starting point of WW2.Gliewitz was German territory at the time,and Hitler staged a mock attack on the towns German Radio station using the murdered corpses of Dachau inmates,dressed in Polish uniform to justify Polish aggression,
    thereby giving him the excuse to invade Poland.

    I made a point of not saying death camp, one of over 200 sub camps to Auschwitz. At work so found a wiki quote...

    An attack on a radio station in Gleiwitz on August 31, 1939, staged by the German secret police, served as a pretext for Nazi Germany to invade Poland, which marked the start of the Second World War. From July 1944 to January 1945, Gliwice was the location for one of the many sub-camps of the Auschwitz concentration camp [4]
