Pre-season
Transfers
6 players left the club and we signed 6 new players:
View attachment 380814
Christoph Werner wanted to leave because he was second choice. Domgorgen, Stefani, Garlinski and Maresca were just not good enough in the Hessenliga, so the Regionalliga will be a level too high.
Ferhat Gunduz played 2 good seasons, but I brought in a better striker.
First newcomer was
Stefan Kemmerling, he will be our second choice in the goal or maybe first choice.

We also brought in 2 new strikers. One for the future and one to challenge Engin Cicem.
Mirco Nicosia and
Giuseppe Burgio

Tobias Klein will challenge Ragaman on the position of right back after the departure of Maresca.

And last but not least we signed a very experienced central midfielder named
Jurgen Heinrichs.

I'm very happy with my transfers and I hope they can deliver some great performances.
League
Because we won the play-off final last season we will now play in the 4th tier of Germany in the Regionalliga. We will play in the
Fussbal-Regionalliga Sudwest with 18 other teams.

Our predicted finish is 18th, but I'm sure that we can avoid relegation and push for a midtable position!
The second teams of Bundesliga clubs Kaiserslautern, Frankfurt and Mainz will be tough opponents, but my favourite for the title is our fierce rival, SV Wehen Wiesbaden.
So this season there will be 2 Wiesbaden derbies!
Fixtures
We played 6 friendlies and again my assistant manager, Peter Wynhoff managed them because I was busy with transfers!

And so it begins, my first season in the Regionalliga!

It was an even game, so I was disappointed with the result. But my lads showed some good football, so I have hope for the rest of the season.

We dominated this match so a very deserved win over another relegation candidate.
3 goals and a clean sheet is very good for our first home match.
Player of the month
Engin Cicem was our starting striker in the first 2 matches and delivered 1 great performance against Idar-Oberstein: 1 goal, 2 assists and the POM-award
August
Fixtures
August started with a home match in the DFB-Pokal against 2. Bundesliga team Arminia Bielefeld.

Despite the loss we played very well. Same story as last year as they got a penalty...

We were winning 3-1 at half time and we still lose... Incredible and very very disappointing!
View attachment 380761
Again we won 3-0 at home. A very good performance this time of our new striker Burgio!
View attachment 380760
Third relegation candidate we beat at home! An amazing 5-1 victory
View attachment 380757
A 4-1 loss... We defended terrible and I hope we will grab some points in the coming away games...
3 home victories and 3 away losses so far! If we can grab points in away games we can aim for a midtable position!
Player of the month
It was difficult to choose but I choose Joseph Olumide
He score 3 times, gave 4 assists and received 1 POM-award!

A poor result...
View attachment 380748View attachment 380747
We totally dominated this match, so we should have won.
View attachment 380745
Second clean sheet in a row and the first win of the month October!
View attachment 380744
A very good win against one of the promotion candidates!
Third clean sheet in 3 games!
View attachment 380743View attachment 380742
A very good performance of the attack, but a bad day for the defence...
A 3-3 draw against anothe midtable team, but we could have scored more with 8 CCC's!!!
View attachment 380741
A bad result after we were leading the game at half time with 1-0.
A draw would be a fair result, but we lose...
