That Cercle wants to do everything to realize the conservation is clear from this very very last-minute trainer change. Because Cercle barely two jump -off matches are still waiting. And Groen-Zwart had only just sent his previous coach, Feldhofer, the Laan at the start of the play-downs. But they have not become a success under Jimmy Dewulf. And so Cercle counts on Storck, who could once save Groen-Zwart. Panic football? Or a brilliant move?
Cercle stands for two crucial jump -off competitions to ensure the preservation in first class. Opponent in this becomes Patro Eisden Maasmechelen, winner of the Promotion Play-Offs in the Challenger Pro League.
CEO Klaas Reynaert: “For the important duels against Patro Eisden Maasmechelen, we count on Bernd Storck’s experience to keep us in 1A. It was not an easy decision to communicate that to Jimmy, but we are convinced that this decision is the right one. We hope that Jimmy will remain, but give him the necessary cooling -off time.”
