Stuttgart (dpa / lsw) - Former President Erwin Staudt cannot understand that VfB Stuttgart is so public with its internal dispute.
“What goes wrong is that the whole thing is being played out in public.
There are always differences of opinion in every committee, but you just have to tackle the problem, sit down at a table and then try to find a solution together, "said the 72-year-old of the German press agency.
He emphasized that since he left VfB in 2011, he has only been following events from outside.
The Bundesliga soccer team has been involved in quarrels for weeks.
On Wednesday, President Claus Vogt caused unrest with his announcement that he wanted to postpone the general meeting planned for spring.
His colleagues on the Presidium countered negatively and in turn announced that the decision for the date on March 18 was binding.
There are presidential elections at the general assembly.
CEO Thomas Hitzlsperger wants to push Vogt out of office.
"That is very damaging to the association, what is going on there," said Staudt about all the quarrels.
"I hope that reason will prevail at some point."
For him it is generally not an option to return to VfB, said Staudt.
"No, for God's sake," he replied to a corresponding question: "I'm not going back to this theater of war."
