Ingo ohne Flamingo Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 23 hours ago, German Jag said: A low profile appointment for H96 as Kenan Kocak, unemployed but last team was SV Sandhausen, is given a contract as trainer till the end of the season. Obviously hope that all works out, but have a nagging feeling that we’ll be looking for a new trainer sometime in March. Surprised you guys didn't go for Andre Schubert seeing as you like Borussia rejects, he'd probably do a half decent job at H96. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd_is_God Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Great result again from Union Berlin. Doing what they need to, especially at home, to have a shout at staying up. 4 wins in 5 now and, including friendlies, haven't conceeded a goal at home since September 27th 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Gladbach pick up during the week away in Austria and hopefully get 3 points on Sunday, even more because I'll be there 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Union last season had the best defence in the 2. Bundesliga, and they are starting to be just as organised again this season. Hard to break down and then, once you do, you still need to get past Rafał Gikiewicz which is no mean feat! He's out of contract in the summer. We will do well to keep hold of him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losing an early goal was always going to be difficult against teams like Union. I was watching the game before the clyde game and at half time and it looked like we just couldn't break them down. The league has tightened up a wee bit, a few teams within 3 points now. Borussia should win against Freiburg who are a great team this season but I just think at home Borussia should take care of them, this is the 2nd time I would have seen Freiburg at Borussia Park, last time being an easy 3-0 win. Still got Bayern and Paderborn at home and Wolfsburg and Hertha away before Christmas, be interesting to see how the top of the table looks then. I can't see us remaining at top, I reckon we'll only take between 6 and 9 points with a defeat from Bayern that will allow them to leapfrog us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stellaboz Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Fucking Köln down, it's inevitable. Everyone else capable of picking up points here there and everywhere except us. No fucking investment in the summer will see us playing Shitehausen and Minterburg again next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waspy Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Hertha need to punt Ante Covic immediately and bring the Prince of Berlin home before it is too late. The time was right for Pàl to move on but the appointment of Covic was disastrous. To try and build on the good work of Pàl a recognised manager with league experience was needed, not some guy from the reserves. Heads need to roll on this appointment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd_is_God Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Mad run of games coming up for Union. Schalke up next which will be tough, especially in Gelsenkirchen. If Union are to stay up this season, these games below that coming up are pivotal. 12, if not 13, points here would be a huge leap towards safety. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are probably correct in that the club seemed to have stagnated a little under his management, with a good start regularly being followed by a shambolic end to the season, thereby resulting in a mid-table finish. For it to be considered the correct decision, the club had to then appoint the correct man to take things to the next level. As you say, they failed miserably and are currently being thoroughly shown up by Union. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

German Jag Posted November 26, 2019 Author Share Posted November 26, 2019 Kenan Kocak‘s new manager bounce lasted all of 3 minutes as Darmstadt got their first goal, courtesy of some Keystone cops style defending, in a 2-1 away win in Hannover. A chilly, foggy evening with just 22,100 in attendance. H96 back on level terms after 15 mins. as Haraguchi fired in a rebound from a Weydandt header. Some more comedy defending saw the guests regain their lead on the half hour mark. Three minutes from the end, newly introduced, Marc Stendera scored a worldie which was knocked off after VAR. Stendera‘s reaction earned him a yellow and 2 minutes later he got a 2nd yellow! Result leaves H96 stuck at the wrong end of the table, 3rd bottom ie play-off spot. Also the serious drop off in attendance numbers, must be causing some concern Next up a, jam packed away end, trip to St. Pauli. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather stick with Klinsmann. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
