Afraid every season. Either that FC get relegated, or that your lot get promoted.
Actually, I've always had a soft spot for Alemannia on account of their first stint in the Bundesliga in the late '60s. Not that I was aware of football, but you have to love a side that in their second season finishes in second place, and the following season is soundly relegated.
Right now Erik is our "Geschaeftsfuehrer Sport", i.e. manager of sport but without the coaching. German website of Alemannia Aachen
He is the only competent member of the board. All the others are pretty useless. So we are at the brink of bankruptcy again. Reason: Our new shiny stadium is much to expensive and the board agreed to an utterly crappy business plan for it.
These days, though, they're so bloody nice. The captain, Philipp Lahm, makes Gary Lineker look like Joey Barton. None of them have got massive egoes. They all sacrifice themselves for the good of the team. It's absolutely sickening.
