Ulm separates from promotion coach: new impulse for relegation!
In a surprising step, the SSV Ulm, who is currently fighting in the second Bundesliga and is in a critical situation, has separated from its promotion coach Thomas Wörle. The association announced on Tuesday that not only Wörle, who has been steering the club's fortunes in 151 games since 2021, but also assistant coach Max Knauer and athletic trainer Christoph Zellner. Association chairman Uli Eitle said that the decision to give the trainers concerned was not easy to fall, but the association had a new impulse for the aim of the desired goals - relegation in the 2nd league.The successor of Wörle takes over the U19 coach Robert Lechleiter until the end of the season. The challenge will be great, because the SSV Ulm is currently occupying the penultimate place in the table and already has four points behind the saving place. In the season so far, the team was only able to win three out of 25 games, the last victory is already far ago and dated January 26th. The rest of the season program is also difficult, as there is next to an away game against Karlsruher SC. Managing Director Markus Thiele commented on the change of coach and emphasized that it was a difficult decision, but which, however, had nothing to do with a lack of appreciation for the work done. He thanked Wörle and his team for their commitment to the association, as well as rnd reported.
The tense circumstances
The SSV Ulm had risen to the 3rd league as a master of the regional league last season and had shown an impressive performance there. But this season is anything but round. The premature change of coaching indicates the tense situation of the association, which is more dependent on relegation than ever. Wörle, who was celebrated as a promotion coach, now has to experience the bitter reality of the relegation battle, while Lechleiter, who is now on the sidelines, has the task of mobilizing the team in this critical phase to ensure survival in the league.
The next challenge is already at the corner, and SSV Ulm sincerely hopes that the new coach can bring a breath of fresh air to the team. This step could decide on the success or failure of the current season. The upcoming games will be decisive for whether the traditional club can assert its place in the 2nd league.
