Hannover 96: second division hammer! Boss Martin kid away IMMEDIATELY | Sports

That’s a hammer in the 2nd league!

Martin Kind (78), the top boss of the Reds since 1997, is no longer the managing director of the professional company KGaA. In a short message, the bosses of the association (eV) informed about the expulsion. It says in two short sentences under the heading “Dismissal of Martin Kind”:

Martin Kind was dismissed as Managing Director of Hannover 96 Management GmbH with immediate effect for important reasons. The committees will promptly decide on the new appointment of the management.

The message is signed with “The Board of Directors of the Hannoverscher Sportverein von 1896 eV”!

In plain language: The five-member eV board chaired by Boss Sebastian Kramer throws the child out!

Kramer personally informed Kind of the decision yesterday at the club sports center on Stammestrasse.

Is that possible?

Yes! Due to the 50+1 rule, the eV has the right to determine the management of the professional company. For more than two years, Kramer & Co. tried to come to an agreement with the shareholders and Ober-Boss Kind on a common Kind successor. But on the supervisory board – with two representatives each from the shareholders and two from the association – every attempt at agreement failed. A good year ago, Kind and Robert Schäfer pushed through their candidates on their own.

Already then the Zoff escalated, the eV representatives let child run into the wall. Schäfer was never allowed to work for the professionals, only managed the subsidiary companies “Arena” and “S&S” – and fled after 12 months at the end of June. Spicy: Kind is now the “Schäfer successor”, remains boss in the less important 96 companies.

What’s behind it?

According to BILD information, the eV bosses wanted a say in filling important positions such as sports director and coach after Kind’s many wrong decisions in recent years. The “autocratic” child always rejected that.

When asked, Kramer did not want to comment on the time or the “important reasons” for the child being thrown out. But there should already be a successor candidate. Kramer to BILD: “We are in talks.”

Do the reds break?

Not excluded! Kind is and remains the majority shareholder and continues to have great influence and power over his millions. And: It is inconceivable that he would accept being kicked out so easily. Kind will probably appeal the decision and try to sue himself back in “his” executive chair with a “preliminary injunction”.

The fact is: After yesterday’s decision, the Reds are facing the greatest acid test of their 126-year club history
