Starting with a rant about all of us...
While most guys only talk and think and discuss about some billionaire sports guys let me tell some news from the third German Football league which most are not interested in as it is close to amateur sports. Sports many of us could do or feel close to - however I have the feeling a majority also claim to be the most knowledgable expert in all no aspects of sports, being better in selecting the best teams, in developing winning strategies and simply being no.1 in all topics we write about. Sorry, certainly not everyone is that way. In Germany we have the say that 35 million of German citizens are the ideal Bundestrainer :-) - it is easy to judge and criticise sitting on the couch - I have to admit I sometimes am not any better.
Sascha Hildmann new FCK coach replacing Michael Frontzeck
Who? Where? What? I am talking about my home club 1. FC Kaiserslautern that is in the most difficult times of their history, being 4 times German champion, the last time 20 years ago, we are now suffering in division 3 and are getting closer and closer to the final financial collapse. It is sad to see this when you have watched all the huge matches in the stadium where we hit Bayern Munich out of the stadium and so many more fights that were won by a strong will, attitude and heart. The club never had a lot money but was living from strong youth development and players that did identify themselves with the club. These times are over and money is key everywhere. This week they fired team manager Frontzeck as a step to at least secure their stay in division three which is difficult enough right now.
