 Vissel Kobe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 1994, the city of Kobe reached an agreement with Kawasaki Steel, the parent company, to move the club to Kobe and compete for a spot in the professional J. League as Vissel Kobe.
Vissel is a combination of the words "victory" and "vessel", a nod to Kobe's history as a port city.
Vissel finished 13th in the league in 2004, the same position as the previous year, and finished 18th and last place, resulting in automatic relegation from J. League Division 1, or J1, to J2.

Vissel Kobe's roots lie in the Ito Ham soccer club, which was never a particularly great club team, but performed well enough to earn promotion to the J.League at the end of 1996.
Vissel Kobe was originally formed in 1994, as "Kobe Orange Soccer Club" (dont even ASK what the "orange" is supposed to mean), with the support of the Kobe city government and seven corporate backers, including Daiei Inc. and Itoham Foods Inc..
Kobe went out of its way to sign Kazu Miura, who was one of Japan's finest football players in his heyday, but had reached a low point in his career due to a combination of age and arrogance.

Sadly, he couldn't control and by the time he did the keeper was at his feet and the ball in his hands.
D Crook 4.5 Nothing spectacular and had some problems with Vissel's speed D James 6 A little slow to react and always laying back but his size came in handy against the smaller Vissel.
D James Dunn 5 Nothing really to mention, good or bad D Morrill 5 Had a bad first half, but made it up with solid defense down the stretch MF Megson 5.5 Quite honestly, he was great when needed to make the nice pass but kind of absent from where the ball was.

Das Glück, das Kawasaki 1993 gefehlt hatte, ereilte Vissel 1996, nur ein Jahr, nachdem das große Hanshin-Erdbeben die Stadt in großen Teilen verwüstet und die ganze Region in die Krise gestürzt hatte.
Seit 1997 hat Vissel Kobe das Oberhaus zwar nicht mehr verlassen, doch konnte sich der Verein, der 2002 vom Stadion der Universiade (erbaut 1985) in die neue WM-Arena "Kobe Wing Stadium" umzog, nie richtig etablieren und hat noch nie eine Saison unter den besten zehn abgeschlossen.

 Canaries on the wing in Elazig Ilhan bids farewell Iverson leads 76ers past Lakers - Turkish Daily News Feb 07, 2004
Besiktas manager Sinan Engin announced that the Kobe move was "99 percent certain" but added, "Until the ink is dry on the contract, it would be wrong to say that the transfer has gone through." However, Ilhan was pulled from the squad for last night's Ankaragucu match at his own request.
What it is worth to Ilhan is less clear, but there are confident reports that he will be on a flat rate $2 million a year for five years which could rise to $3 million with a cut of advertising which the Japanese club has promised him.
Vissel Kobe must also be aware that his disciplinary record is not the best.

Vissel Kobe was in financial trouble and knew that Laudrup's 1.2 million dollar salary was going to be an insuperable problem in the next season.
This gentleman's agreement would lift the burden of his salary off Vissel Kobe's shoulders, while it would allow Laudrup to join Ajax on a free transfer.
Just before he officially signed his contract with Ajax, Laudrup was suddenly transferred from Vissel Kobe to Celik Zenica, a club playing in the highest division of Bosnia-Hercegovina, on a free transfer.

 Football Stadiums in Japan: Kobe Universiade Memorial Stadium
While some J.League clubs make do with substandard stadiums, Vissel Kobe is in the rare position of having two top-class facilities in very convenient locations.
Of course, the premier venue in the city is the brand-new, soccer-only Kobe Wing Stadium, which serves as a World Cup venue in 2002.
It CAN seem somewhat stark when Vissel draws only a small crowd of 6,000 to 8,000, but when it is full, Universiade can be a very lively venue.

When Vissel Kobe came in with an offer of $4.5 million, for him a lot of the supporters felt that the safest course of action was to take the money and run.
After all, they reasoned, it was better to have cash in the bank than to risk being saddled with a worthless player whose career had been cut short by injury.
