Has the reform already failed?

This was to be the great success and is growing more and more in a pipe trap: the reform of promotion to the 3rd league. At the present time, only the question of whether or not the North East Squadron should / should be resolved is discussed.

And the third division clubs have already crossed their fingers, disagreeing with a rising match between the Bavarian, North and North-East squadrons champions. Instead, there are only three relegated again. In an official statement released Wednesday at noon, he said the credibility of the DFB in terms of new rules for the promotion of the 3rd league had finally been lost. Regional and national badociations deal only with the traditional preservation of power. "No fourth club of the 3rd league should be penalized for its flagrant lack of will to find a solution to four regional leagues in the league." This would mean that the whole reform could be buried.

Bornemann: need four seasons and four newcomers

FC Rot-Weiss Erfurt's sports director, Oliver Bornemann, hopes to have a long-term vision of the situation as a whole: "You should do a far-sighted reform, it should not just go to the majorities in the committees." The solution would be very well received by the fans. We need four squadrons, the champions must climb directly, but all must be balanced geographically. "Clearly: it should not be who has the most members Bornemann calls for a" principle of solidarity ".

But this is precisely what is currently out of sight. All badociations think only of the famous shirt. The Süddeutsche Verband, represented in the Bundestag DFB as Landesverband with 49 votes maximum, wants to keep its direct seat. West Germany, with 27 votes, also wants to keep a direct mountaineer – as proposed by the ad hoc DFB AG. Always stay north, in Bavaria and north-east. For NOFV, President Rainer Milkoreit has already pointed out that it was out of the question to part ways. A German football badociation withdraws and gives responsibility to the regional badociations.

Mieth: Stand up to receive the Nordoststaffel

In the fourth division, 1. FC Lok Leipzig is above all a good season: "We are sticking to the NOFV's joint declaration of the spring, according to which our squadron must be preserved in this form," said the director. General, Martin Mieth. who also represents the president of NOFV, Rainer Milkoreit, but who would end up saying that there will be no direct mountaineer in the future.

Which brings the president of Wacker Nordhausen on the palm. "The champions have to climb 100%, we have the most attractive squadron and we want to divide it." It's an absolute "no go" for us, we're in the middle of Thuringia and we should go to Munich or Lübeck, Nico Kleofas, who also does not understand why the NOFV representatives in the special group, Hermann Winkler (President of the Saxony Football Federation) and Hubert Wolf (President of ZFC Meuselwitz), voted for this compromise give four relegated and relegated, but for all the squadrons must be split evenly.You have to be careful that the fans do not go to the barricades.The pressure is already great.
