Everything should be different. The lack of transparency that existed under investor Mikhail Ponomarev should finally be a thing of the past. The KFC Uerdingen should be run by a team that is open and communicative. All of that sounds good, but the first interim assessment – after only a week and a half – is different.
–
Training started on Wednesday. Some KFC fans who wanted to watch were sent home. Their presence was not wanted. Secret training! In addition, the KFC announced that there were also players for trial training who did not want others to know about it. But the KFC does not want competitors to know which players it is interested in. These are of course flimsy, weak arguments that suggest that there were only a few young players and test players there. Of course, none of this has anything to do with the start of training for a regional soccer team. And because the Uerdinger have now realized that, it is now: There was no training start, but the good news that the Oppum district sports facility can still be used for training. If that’s not good news!

The situation of the traditional club is extremely worrying five weeks before the championship kick-off. The new board works almost around the clock and has talks at all levels: with creditors, with the city, with sponsors, with the sports management, with players and also because of the stadium. The KFC is working on being able to act again. Since he is not yet, no signatures can be made.
–
But some things seem to be well prepared by now – such as the negotiations with the city of Velbert, where the blue-reds want to play their so-called home games. But the signature is still missing under the lease, so nothing can be officially announced yet.
–
Of course, all of this has fatal consequences. The KFC keeps falling behind the competition in the fight to stay in the league. Can this considerable time lag be made up? At least doubts are justified.
–
After all, the West German Football Association is fulfilling its duty of care towards the club. Almost all attractive opponents, who provide a great backdrop, are guests in the first half of the Uerdingen. They are supposed to make sure that the KFC has income and becomes liquid. The disadvantage: Rot-Weiss Essen, Alemannia Aachen and Preußen Münster will come to Grotenburg in the 2022/23 season at the earliest.
