VSV is currently experiencing sporting problems – and there may also be some grumbling behind the scenes.
The Eagles are currently only second to last in the win2day Ice Hockey League. In addition, Villach's financial situation may not be satisfactory. Report from “small newspaper” According to SAAM, it has increasingly demanded more tax money.
According to Managing Director Marin Winkler, VSV has received funding worth €300,000 annually since 2017. According to VSV's wish, this amount should be increased to €330,000.
“Due to the current economic situation, we would like to request a link to the index,” Winkler was quoted as saying. The club itself is said to have invested €250,000 in creating new cabins for the fighting team and young talent as part of the hall's renovation. According to Mayor Günter Albel, the general conditions cannot be increased.
Rauchwald and Schwab resign from their positions
The city of Villach shows no understanding of the new requirements and responds: “This year, VSV will receive approximately €2.5 million in tax money through club-related aspects to renovate the hall and support game operations. It is not clear to us.” How, in light of these facts, can you make further financial demands?
In addition to the financial demands, there are also sporting problems: according to the report, VSV fans are dissatisfied with the team's lineup and are demanding more players. The Council is calculated and draws conclusions.
In an email written by Schwab to the Villach City Council, the withdrawal of the current board of directors was confirmed: “In this context, we would also like to inform you of the planned structural change of the association and the withdrawal of the current board of directors around Gerald Rauchwald and Andreas Schwab.”
The legend should become a sporting director
“The plan is for Andy (Schwab, note) and Gerald (Rauchenwald) to withdraw from the advisory board. This step was taken for private reasons. They have both invested a lot of time in the club in recent years,” Winkler said. .
The VSV Managing Director also announced that he will be handling the financial agenda. Perhaps a sports director should be appointed to provide sports buzz. Club legend Herbert Hohenberger is considered the most likely candidate for this position and is expected to be nominated next Wednesday.
Smoking Forest and Schaub should remain at the club. In the future, the two would like to be members of the advisory board around Thomas Pfeiffer and Martin Zankel.
