What is happening in Hamburg is already really hurting. The port club is said to be rotten to the very core …

Hamburg’s sad period continues. The traditional port sign burned down at the home stadium with the “village” Sandhausen (1: 5), lost its play at the expense of Heidenheim and is waiting for another year in the second bundelize, the third in the overall ranking.

“I’m not sorry. But what’s happening at HSV really hurts,” the forty-seven-year-old club legend Frank Rost, whose opinion was published by the sport.cz server, was heard.

Fans are in a similar situation. “Spooky,” one of the HSV supporters shook his head. “The club is rotten to the very core. The management can be glad that there were no spectators,” he chose even sharper words.

HSV, which is one of the founding members of the Bundesliga, from which it was commanded after less than a hundred years, has not been helped in recent seasons by player, coach or functional changes, and suffering continues.

Further personnel changes are likely to follow. “The decision must be made carefully. In any case, our goal for next time can be nothing more than to return.” quoted sport.cz by the words of sports director Jonas Boldt, who is currently waiting for the final analysis of head coach Dieter Hecking.

Hamburg, which is just looking sadly at advancing Bielefeld and Stuttgart, is not helped much by the outflow of sponsors, which is costing it millions of euros and possible investment in major reinforcements. And statistics don’t sound positive twice either …

While in the first year after the relegation, 46 clubs managed to return from a total of 142 relegation teams, which is 32.4 percent of clubs, after two years of absence it was only 18 club addresses (12.7 percent).

After the third year, which now awaits the team from the Volksparkstadion for more than 57,000 spectators, less than five percent of the teams have knocked on the elite gates, which is certainly a warning.

All the more so because 40 teams never returned to the top competition. On the lower floors, however, there are still other “large animals” of the Cologne type, which have been waiting for the return of 46 years, or Kaiserslautern and Munich in 1860, which are even currently only to be found in the third league.
