Farewells and Gündogan

The sporting snapshot could be at 1. SC Feucht A little more calming picture: Ninth place in the Bayernliga Nord. While other teams plunge into exciting climbing and relegation fights, the club can plan its future intensively at the gates of Nuremberg.

And in this regard there is a lot in turmoil: the manager goes with Manfred Kreuzer. But if you have followed the wetter for the past decades, you can only smile tiredly with the profane term manager, because Kreuzer was much more than that. The 75-year-old has shaped the sports club for more than 30 years, invested a lot of money in the club as an entrepreneur And was the strong man there for a long time on the board.

The sporting crowning glory of his year in office was certainly the promotion to the then third -class regional league Süd, in which one struck heren status for two years with talents such as the later international Roberto Hilbert or the further course of the career at SV Wehen Wiesbaden, Alf Mintzel Wacker, Against today's Bundesliga clubs FC Augsburg and TSG Hoffenheim celebrated home victories before a financial difficulty heralded the fall down to the district league of Middle Franconia (seventh league). All of this did not run without background noise, but Kreuzer always stayed with his heart's club, in the past three years in the second row as a manager. With this task, his "right hand" Michael Schmidt will succeed from next summer.

The sports club also needs a replacement for its best goal scorer: Stephan König will say goodbye to Lower Bavaria for private reasons after six years after six years. He will not be able to add any more of his 15 goals of the season so far, since on April 26th in the away game at Bayern Hof shortly before the end, he gave the referee a violent Rempler and of course saw red in red. According to information from the "Nürnberger Nachrichten", the association wants to block him for six months, two of which could be suspended. King, who seemed frightened by a second after his campaign, made himself clear to the newspaper: "It was very stupid of me and I'm really sorry."

In the last four games of the season, the SCF Königs will be able to get over due to the table situation, although everyone involved would have wished for a more worthy farewell. For the coming season, however, his absence will tear a big gap. Filling this will also be a task for Serdal Gündogan. The 43 -year -old leaves the national league team SG Quelle Fürth -also a club with a past in the third -class regional league -to become a coach in moist. Gündogan is supported by the previous chief coach Florian Schlicker as part of an equal coaching duo. A combination that could work, because Schlicker and Gündogan still know each other from times at SV Seligenporten when Gündogan was the assistant coach Schlickers, mostly in the regional league.
