New board of Hamburger SV hopes for 30,000 fans

The first three weeks as a new man in the HSV board existed for Dr. med. Thomas Mustered especially from talks. I want to understand everything as possible, says the 52-year-old medical entrepreneur. This applies to the major relationships in his club, but also at short notice for the very concrete problems. For example, the audience exclusion and the existing financial worries. His goal: at short notice up to 30,000 spectators in the Volkmar.

• Economic situation tense
• secured in the Bundesliga in five years

In 2000 followers were allowed to attend the city of St. Pauli last Friday. That at the same time in the Elbphilharmonie 2100 spectators are admitted indoors is of course not comprehensible. I try to discuss these things in terms of facts with the Senate.

Economic situation tense

With BVB-Boss Hans-Joachim Wake he was already in exchange, unlike the Dortmund, he first does not speak of legal steps. We want to talk and look for solutions and do not intend to be a legal solution. Mustered says: We trust us here in the Volkmar 25,000 to 30,000 spectators without there being a risk. And he concretized, We did not roll this number, she is determined, we played everything through everything. We have different approaches, with mouth guard and spacer regulations, we could guarantee this audience without a risk to people. The background is clear: The economic situation is tense without viewer revenue and the new man does not make a secret: The current situation is anything but good.

Mustered therefore speaks not only with the Senate, but also wants to search internally all processes. The shareholder was initially sent to the Management Board for a year by the Supervisory Board, and I will report purely into the Supervisory Board. This must then decide how the Management Board should look like in the future: with a boss above sports board Jonas Bold? With an equal side man? Deserted field emphasizes, the content is crucial. The goal is not to get a new person in the board and to make the orientation after this, but to work on the structure, a guideline to create a script. That's my job.

secured in the Bundesliga in five years

Means: The impressions, the desert field now collects, will be crucial for his inventory, whom and what the HSV needs at the board level. The goal has taken clear the HSV fan since childhood: In five years I wish an HSV, which is very compact and well positioned in the 1st league.
