Radical austerity: Hamburger SV drives his budget down dramatically

A month ago, as the door opened to the press room on the first floor of the arena and Imtech Carl Edgar Jarchow met for the first time as Chairman of the HSV from the public. "I have respect for this task," said 56-year-old and assured full commitment that the prospect of the "still positive" is: "In recent years a lot of good has been done.

I have followed the development of ever. In many ways we are incomparably better placed than many years ago. "At that time, five weeks, Jarchow had not dealt so intensively with the economic situation. He relied on the statements of his predecessor, Bernd Hoffmann, who had declared that the association is "solid" set up and carried him "swept" was passed.

Meanwhile, the financial estimates Jarchow differently, namely dramatic. As part of the supervisory board meeting on Tuesday evening in the VIP section of the stadium saw the HSV boss forced to imagine a radical austerity. After the joint meeting of the Executive Board and Supervisory Board was chief inspector Ernst-Otto Rieckhoff a statement.

"We will complete the current fiscal year with a reasonable deficit. There is more to report at this time. We discussed various topics discussed various things. Currently, there are many uncertainties, belongs to the sports development in the rest of the season. "HSV shrink your way around.

Jarchow plans to save some additional items in the office. So far, two personal assistants of the former club boss Hoffmann and his colleague Katja Kraus and another executive assistant and event managers were on leave. These days for each employee in each department a task profile created and controlled.

The question is: Who is dispensable? This theme is concerned, Frank Arnesen and Michael Oenning, but her focus is solely and alone on the sporting field. The future sporting director, 30 June in the service of Chelsea, and the coach of HSV are working hard on putting together the kicking staff.

Between the two practice sessions on Tuesday she had a telephone conversation. "The focus was on the financial situation", said Oenning, who tries to relax to deal with it: "Of course, then turn our plans, which ultimately means available. But about me I will break your head, but wait, what facts are established.

It is clear that not only with money can create something "The" horror stories "in the media he would take note of aperture, the daily work however." I am in this area is not the doer, "said Oenning, the ". the team prepare for the challenges ahead," by focusing on the coach is aware of the fact that he too could contribute to easing the economic trouble - by qualifying for international competition.

This target was missed in the past season already. "If that happens, despite all the financial efforts for a second time in a row, then it is clear that we will initially make large jumps," said Oenning, who warns, however, participation in the Euro League schedule: "So we would not good advice -.

and that would not be serious "Five laps from the end of the season is the HSV (42 points) in seventh place, behind the fifth place is only three points. For the "HSV" it is, 1 FC Nuremberg (43) and Mainz overtake 05 (45) and SC Freiburg (41) to keep their distance. "Our situation is not bad, but I've long since given up by competitors for each attribute the residual program.

I am firmly convinced that the whole thing dissolve before the final day.
