Overview
- The club’s board acknowledged the petition as a legitimate way to voice concerns, and the fan drive has topped 700 signatures, TAG24 reported.
- The petition seeks an extraordinary members’ meeting to demand transparency and fixes after the coach’s exit and the sporting director’s resignation left the team at risk of relegation.
- Club bylaws require the board to call such a meeting or a written request from at least 25% of eligible members, which is roughly 2,400 of about 9,600 members.
- Initiator Janett Rosenau, a club member, launched the effort on Easter Sunday and is using social media to reach supporters spread well beyond Aue and Saxony.
- TAG24 also reports two current shirt sponsors plan to cut funding next season if the club is relegated, adding financial stakes to the team’s on-field slide.
