Bundesliga: power struggles and course search at Hertha


Windhorst holds against it

Windhorst rejected the allegations. But he probably wants to avoid an open escalation of the conflict. The replica sounded a bit patronizing and deliberately above things. “We see with respect that Werner Gegenbauer has cleared the way for a new beginning. The very personal, unfounded attacks against Lars Windhorst have nothing to do with a new beginning. But kicking is not our style,” said Windhorst’s spokesman, Andreas Fritzenkötter, who German press agency.

Gegenbauer is of course about interpreting his era as Hertha boss. Windhorst had snubbed him with his recall request in March. The question of how the club should use the 375 million euros from investors is a matter of opinion. The fact is that under Gegenbauer’s management there has been no sporting upswing since the grants, but a rapid decline.

It is Bobic’s job to ensure that the rescue package that opened just in time in the relegation remains viable. But apparently the manager has doubts that there will be an upswing. The danger: If the entire presidium is voted out on Sunday, there will be a dangerous paralysis in the decision-making bodies in the planning phase that is so important for the coming season.

Presidential Candidate for Objectivity

The only known candidate for the presidential successor does not see this danger. “There is not three hours of rioting at a general meeting. It will be objective and calm,” said Kay Bernstein, the former lead singer in the fan curve and today’s entrepreneur. The Presidium will probably not be voted out completely, since the stimulus figure Gegenbauer is no longer there.

For the upcoming election campaign for the Gegenbauer successor, which must be clarified at another meeting in a good four weeks, Bernstein expects three other candidates in addition to himself: Interim President Thorsten Manske, Chairman of the Supervisory Board Torsten-Jörn Klein and also an unknown representative the Windhorst camp. So far, only Bernstein has announced his candidacy. He also called on those responsible to be prudent: “Everyone has to calm down now. Everyone needs a yoga session.”
