Will Jens Härtel have to pack his bags as coach of third-division soccer club FC Erzgebirge Aue after less than a year in charge? The Saxon's match against FC Ingolstadt on Sunday (7.30pm/MagentaSport) could provide an answer. In any case, the newly elected board of FC Erzgebirge is not giving any guarantees on the important personnel issues.
In its regular meeting on Tuesday in the presence of sports managing director Matthias Heidrich, the sporting situation was discussed once again. The board then called the team and coaching team to account. "We analyzed the sporting development of the past year, in particular the past games with all their accompanying symptoms such as personnel worries, performance and match results. Only points count against Ingolstadt on Sunday, the only thing that matters at the moment is results in a difficult phase. We trust our team and the coaching team to do that," said president Thomas Schlesinger after the meeting.
