Thanks for that EE. Saves me some work. Over on our e-mail list, I posted that some of the guys I used to write with think hiring Roeber for this job was a mistake.

I don't necessarily agree with them, I just would have rather seen Juergen Kohler get the job.

Not because I think Kohler is a better coach, but I will use your guy as an example of what I do think.

I think one of the reasons Thomas Schaaf does such a great job for you guys is that he is a "Werder Man".

I think BVB needs a "BVB Man" in the coach's chair. Someone who truly identifies with the club and what it should stand for.

I don't think Juergen Roeber can do that.

But if all they want him to do is keep the seat warm for von Heesen, then yeah, I don't think they could have picked a better guy......... ;)

I think Jurgen Rober is a good choice. I always thought is Hertha teams played hard, were mostly tactically sound, and played attacking soccer. They were never world beaters, but they were usually competitive, and fun to watch.

Whether he'll be an improvement on van Marwijk is very dubious. I thought van Marwijk was solid. It'll be a wash, IMHO.

But the big improvement is that it's easier for me to spell out Rober than van Marwijk. ;)

I have no problem with the choice of Roeber. Just basic doubts.....

But, I will agree that I can't think of anyone "better" we could have realistically gotten for six months.

As an activ player he was a midfielder, played for:
Werder Bremen, Bayern Munich, Bayer Leverkusen and RW Essen

Kicker is reporting that Thomas von Heesen is leaving Bielefeld at the end of the season.

One has to assume that Watzke got "his man" for next season......

[footyfan1]

OK. More on this soap opera!

von Heesen resigned as Bielefeld coach after their 1-0 loss to Bayern yesterday.

The rumors are already flying that if we lose to Gladbach on Saturday, Roeber will be fired and von Heesen hired.

Honestly, I don't think it should take a loss to put von Heesen in charge.

Nothing against Roeber because none of this is his fault. I just think if von Heesen is the guy who is eventually going to be in charge anyhow, then let's get him in there and get on with it.

Let him find out what players he wants to keep and which he wants to get rid of.

Keep Roeber on as a consultant until the end of the seaon.

Or what the hey? Promote Roeber to Director of Sport for the rest of the season and fire Zorc!!!

Roeber can't do any worse......

Regardless,

LET"S JUST FIRE ZORC!!!!

So please let us win the game in order to sign Thomas von Heesen. ;) :)

Shit Uwe. The way we've been playing, I should be asking you to not beat us too badly..... :(

[Borussia]

Did you watch us play against Aachen? :rolleyes:

My only hope is the fact that we don't have to attack since we are the away team.

Response at the new BVB v BMG thread.......

[jonam]

At the moment there are strange things happening at BVB. Zorc's position might be at stake. Michael Rummenige might take over....or even Thomas von Heesen could be our next sporting manager.
