Andreas Rettig contradicts Peter Peters

Andreas Rettig, former managing director of the German Football League (DFL), replied to the presentation by DFL Supervisory Board Chairman Peter Peters (58) that there was “no general alienation” from football.

“A majority of fans disagree with this assessment and specifically criticize the commercialization, which is perceived as excessive,” said the 57-year-old SID and was referring to a FanQ study.

Even the willingness of professional football to reform, as Peters recently claimed in a guest post for kicker, Rettig doubts: “It is precisely this willingness to reform that is demanded by fans, so far in vain.”

On the subject of tension in the championship, the long-time Bundesliga manager (formerly SC Freiburg, 1. FC Köln and FC Augsburg) expressed his firm opinion based on the FanQ survey, which was carried out on behalf of SID was carried out.

“Three quarters of those questioned in the study disagree with the tension at the top of the Bundesliga,” said Rettig: “This aptly shows the different perceptions and, from a fan point of view, makes hopes for future improvements fade.”
