Przed czterema laty opuszczał Płock po zdobyciu mistrzostwa Polski. Ówczesny prezes Krzysztof Dmoszyński postanowił nie przedłużać z nim kontraktu. Dziś wraca i zastępuje Bogdana Zajączkowskiego, któremu też kończy się kontrakt. Przypomnijmy: jeszcze niedawno jednym z kandydatów na trenera płocczan był Bogdan Wenta, który dopiero co wywalczył z reprezentacją awans na igrzyska w Pekinie. Miał łączyć funkcję selekcjonera i opiekuna nafciarzy. Poprosił o kilka dni do namysłu, ale ostatecznie poprzez swojego menedżera odmówił objęcia tej posady. Zaraz potem wyszło na jaw, że woli szkolić szczypiornistów Vive Kielce. |

W 2003 r. Bogdan Kowalczyk zastąpił w Płocku Edwarda Kozińskiego i zdobył z Wisłą wicemistrzostwo i mistrzostwo Polski. Ten ostatni tytuł nie przekonał jednak włodarzy płockiego klubu, którzy postanowili go zwolnić. Podczas ostatniego treningu pożegnał się z zawodnikami. Podał każdemu rękę, powiedział "dziękuję".

Bardziej rozmowny był prezes Krzysztof Dmoszyński. - Trenerowi Kowalczykowi z końcem czerwca kończy się po prostu kontrakt - mówił cztery lata temu. - Podziękowaliśmy mu, bo zrobił w Płocku bardzo dużo. Wysoko oceniliśmy jego pracę. Ale chcemy teraz postawić na Krzysia Kisiela, człowieka z Płocka. Podpisaliśmy z nim umowę na dwa lata. A jakie zadania przed nim postawiliśmy? Zrobimy to w lipcu. Przecież najpierw musimy zobaczyć, jakim składem będziemy dysponować. |

Ale po kolejnych dwóch mistrzostwach Polski w 2005 (także Puchar Polski) i 2006 r., także z Kisielem klub nie chciał przedłużyć umowy. W to miejsce zatrudnił Bogdana Zajączkowskiego, który zdobył wicemistrzostwo i puchar w 2007 r. i dublet w tym roku. Klub niezadowolony z jego pracy w ciągu całego sezonu od kilku tygodni szukał następcy. |

A co mówił Kowalczyk tuż przed meczem z Vive Kielce w 2004 r., czyli tuż przed zdobyciem mistrzostwa? Zapytaliśmy wtedy czy spodziewał się, że Wisła w sezonie 2003/2004 zajdzie tak wysoko. - Walka o mistrzostwo Polski w ogóle nie wchodziła w rachubę, przynajmniej w teorii - mówił Bogdan Kowalczyk. - Na szczęście praktyka przyniosła inne rozwiązanie. Wszyscy mówili, że zajmiemy miejsce piąte, no, może czwarte. Do strefy medalowej nikt nas nie wpuszczał. Ale jest parę rzeczy, które złożyły się na taki wynik. Choćby coraz lepsza gra Wiśniewskiego, Titova. Teraz można np. nie wystawiać reprezentanta Palucha i zagra za niego Szyczkow. O, jeszcze kilku juniorów zrobiło wielkie postępy. To nas wzmocniło. Najważniejsze jest jednak, że tworzymy zespół, który chce coś wywalczyć. Nie ma u nas gwiazd, jest zespół. Poza tym chłopcy zaczęli realizować taktykę, którą ja im narzucałem przez te półtora roku. Czasem w trochę chamski sposób musiałem to robić, ale oni go przyjęli. Jeszcze nie doskonale, ale realizują zadania. Jest po prostu coraz lepiej. |
