According to “Bild”, second division soccer team 1. FC Kaiserslautern has separated from coach Dimitrios Grammozis. The reason for the expulsion was the disappointing results of table 16. in the league.

Under Grammozis, who only took office at the beginning of December as Dirk Schuster’s successor, the Lauterers lost five of six second division games. Even reaching the semi-finals of the DFB Cup did not save the coach from a quick exit at Betzenberg. With only 21 points, the FCK is level on points with second-to-last Hansa Rostock in the second division and has to fear falling into the third division. After the recent 2-1 home defeat against SC Paderborn, fans had already called for Grammozis to be separated.

Managing director Thomas Hengen avoided making a commitment to the coach immediately after the game. “The coach is the poorest pig, he had little standing here from the start, for whatever reason. But you have to deliver results, I know that, the coach, the team,” Hengen said.
