Schwalmtal recognizes Hitler's honorary citizenship from the

Schwalmtal --
A local historian recently found a note in the archive, some will have known there: On 12 April 1933 was appointed unanimously at the request of the Nazi Adolf Hitler as an honorary citizen of the community Amern St. George.
Schwalmtal - since 1970 the legal successor of the community Amern St. George - must now dig through the troublesome legacy.
Legally, the matter is already settled: In NRW extinguished with the death of an honorary citizen of his rights. Symbolically, however, the matter will be concluded today evening: All the groups of the local council will follow the request of the Greens.
The freeman of Hitler is no Schwalm dollars basis. In the 1930s, appointed about 4000 cities and towns Adolf Hitler as an honorary citizen. Some revised this directly after the war, other cities began to debate this late. Dusseldorf in 2000, decided to withdraw the dubious honorary citizenship.

Bayern conceded 0:4-swatter in Barcelona

Barcelona / Cologne - Michael Rensing in the bank, Jorg Butt in the box! Bayern coach Jürgen Klinsmann> has caused many hours in front of the 0:4-debacle in Barcelona for the bang! Klinsi cut the years as a successor to Kahn Rensing built up in the "Game of the Year," the trust relies on veteran Butt (34), who was in this season only become meaningless knockout round second leg against Lisbon in the box.
This of course is a setback for Rensing. I think it's unfair that you push Michael Rensing the blame for the 1:5 in Wolfsburg in the shoes, "responded champion goalkeeper Sepp Maier, who had trained years the 24-year-olds.
"This was a decision for George, not against Michael," Klinmann justified the change before the match: "It is now a moment where our defense needs a little more experience and composure." Emperor Franz Beckenbauer Butts little match practice, given an oracle: "This is obviously a risk that Jürgen Klinsmann as received, hopefully'm fine."
Was not it, after the worst clash with Henry (22.) Butt would have to be almost even changed again, he was bleeding profusely on the face.
Either way, Rensing, who according to Indian Wells Saturday against Frankfurt may ran again, was already common in the criticism became public in December of abgewatscht including Beckenbauer as "amateurish". Soon afterwards the goalkeeper burst the collar: "I'm fed up of the whole discussion. The fact that someone is constantly interfering, gets on my eggs. "
It will probably be in the new season again quiet for him, because hardly anyone expects that the number 1 will be called the Bayern Rensing.
But who is it? Claws, the Munich about Robert Enke had to Oliver Kahn and even national coach Joachim Loew has already suggested a change if he wanted to be goalkeeper on a permanent basis?

"Berti need a thick skin!"

Cologne - On Monday, Berti Vogts (which will be 61) at the Hotel Park Inn Baku Azerbaijan as a football coach. What will the European champion coach from '96 in the country on the Caspian Sea?
 Nobody knows it better than Robert Willig. The coach of black and white Cologne was 2003/2004 Azerbaijan coach in hockey.
"Berti will find many things as I do," says Willig. And: "The work there is very interesting, but not easy.
What Vogts will also learn: He will have to do with Muslims, then there is the Russian aspect, and finally, the Azerbaijanis want to open themselves to the West. This all brought under one roof is very difficult. There he will face a sometimes his head ... "
Willig know that now, all presidents are the sports minister - as well as Vogts' boss. The 54-year-old: "And they have high and unrealistic entitlement. I went there as a hockey there was insignificant. And my bosses asked me that I am the Women's National Team at the first European Championship participation immediately led to the title. "
As seen Willig also provide problems Berti. Although Vogts has already declared that the World Cup participation in 2010 is not in it and he wanted to build more structures in the country, but if it is so far, do not count it. Willig: "Then suddenly they are rausposaunen, we have the best coaches and we have to beat Germany in the World Cup qualifiers."
Even with the new structures will Willig familiar. Then he sees potential for conflict for Vogts. Willig: "Even in hockey, I should create new structures. But they are not willing to accept. Since they have their pride. And later, they present the self as their own idea! "
Even with the interpreter, there is no such difficulties. Willig is convinced that by far not always translated correctly ...
"Berti need a thick skin! Because of the pressure on him will be enormous, "says Willig on. But he does Berti courage in terms of their stay in Azerbaijan's capital Baku. "The city is absolutely safe," he explains, "and the locals are incredibly hospitable. Berti is there already have a great time and live like a king. Despite all the problems that existed, I would not miss the time there. "

Schäfer, "Roth has dementia"

Nuremberg --
Relegation place 17 After three defeats in a row, the fate of the game on Sunday at the 1st FC Cologne before the chest and the chaos behind the scenes:
At the 1 FC Nuremberg is a relentless mudslinging between President Franz Schaefer and his predecessor Michael A. Roth underway.
Red carpet dealer, since the summer of Honorary President of Nuremberg, had risen from his vacation home in Florida, serious allegations. "The club seems to run much confusion. Where there is no boss or at least one person in front of the undivided one has respect, is just nothing, "said the 74-year-old Nuremberg AZ:" How well or poorly they work, yes, the table shows. "
Shepherd retorted rudely in picture: "Perhaps Mr. Roth is suffering from senile dementia or caught too much sun in Florida. Fact: He has left me in June, 5.8 million euro debts and therefore instrumental in our current situation. "And:" Now of firing off, is a very left-tour. I would have expected Mr. Roth. There will be a serious conversation on his return. "
Vice President Ralf Woy also had to deal with a view of the intended function of the building, which will cost around six million euros have fallen from his ex-boss biting criticism. "We'll sit for on golden seats? In still larger offices? The construction is unnecessary at this time. The team has great rooms. Since only needs a bit disinfected and applied new paint. If to be invested, then in the team, "Roth thundered.
Woy for all this is incomprehensible: "The criticism is underground. Mr. Roth has asked himself years but a new building with alternative forms of financing. "
There had been headlines in recent days in the nine-times German champions already for alleged death threats against manager Martin Bader. After the 0-4 against Hamburg, the fans rioted. And it looks very sporty bleak. Coach Michael Oenning is therefore properly before the match in Cologne under pressure.
