Coach Jochen Fallmann explained to the "Krone" why he turned down St. Pölten and opted for Eastern League side Krems. After KSC's major summer upheaval, "Falli" is keeping his head down for the time being.

"It probably wouldn't have gone any worse with me," says coach Jochen Fallmann with a grin, looking back on his dismissal from second-division Amstetten at the end of September. Well, he would have managed to stay in the league as bottom of the table. But he doesn't want to make amends. "Because I had a great relationship with everyone in charge." And "Falli" is now focusing on his new task. Namely the one at Ostliga club Krems.
"I told them that I wasn't available"
"The talks were great right from the start. The club did everything they could to get me," said the 46-year-old, turning down an offer from former club St. Pölten. "I told them that I wouldn't be available this summer. Krems is the perfect place for me in my current life situation.

However, KSC's goals for the coming season are still completely unclear. Especially as numerous key players have left the club. Nachbagauer, for example, recently moved to Horn, while Felber joined rivals Traiskirchen. "We are currently experiencing a major upheaval. Once the new squad is in place, we can make a forecast." According to Fallmann, only one thing is certain: "We won't be one of the big favorites. But we will field a young, hungry team and show attractive soccer."
