Uphill battle now. Might be getting comfortable in the Regionaliga for a few seasons if we do go down. Really fell apart when Kosta Runjaic left. He’s dragged Duisburg up from dead last to mid table and safe for next season. NOt bad for a coach with very little money. He did the same at Darmstadt. Potential Bundesliga coach in a few years?
