An elephant in a glasbutik: Only a parenthesis in the Translation history

wading is not exactly in the Danish fodboldhjerter. Either clogs or a pair of football boots.

After five years at the post, where he too often was the elephant in the glasbutikken, DBU-the director now past. Dropped by the DBU, and, in particular, a case will label the now ex-football boss' legacy; namely, the conflict between the union and the players.

A case both on the woman and herresiden gave both parties serious scratches in the varnish, and which, incidentally, is not settled yet, since you continue to agree to disagree about the employer/arbejdstagerforholdet.

Here played Claus Bretton Meyer a crucial role in the initial and failed negotiations, but since there really was a solution on the table, was the Bretton-Meyer sent out on a siding, and the DBU chairman Jesper Møller and vice-president Thomas Christensen took over.

that Claus Bretton-Meyer was the victim of the former two, since he supposedly had the necessary mandate to finalise negotiations, but it also shows something about the confidence of just the Bretton-Meyer.

You could also call it lack of confidence in his skills, and of course, it was a problem in the long run – and it has the DBU's board of directors therefore taken the consequences of.

Therefore the embarrassing and too long-standing conflict with the players – which, incidentally, was very little excited about Claus Bretton-Meyer has been with to trap him as the director of DBU.

some tough showdown with a frozen culture of DBU, but it created him many enemies in the fodboldmiljøet. You could say he won some individual battles, but when the big blow on a landsholdsaftale had fought home, failed to he large. Like a number of other cases with questionable decisions have been the DBU's board of directors to swing the knife.

He also was never a players 'man and a part stemming back from the days when Morten Olsen was the coach, and the Bretton-Meyer, is not – in the players' eyes – provided the necessary support to Morten Olsen.

called him ’a younger model’ as national coach, and later in Polish, he struck fast, that's all could be fired – also the national coach’. Both statements were described as a knife in the back of Morten Olsen of landsholdsspillerne.

the Appointment of Peter Mills as fodbolddirektør in DBU with responsibility for landsholdene removed with a stroke also part of the Bretton-Meyer's responsibility.

Peter Mills got the DBU at the same time, the face of action, Claus Bretton-Meyer was never. Also, of course, because, to a fodboldchef previously trapped with his lack of football, they never get or got the necessary clout.

Add on top of that, a part of DBU's earlier tasks are laid over the still-strong divisions ' organization, then was DBU-the boss's desk slowly being emptied.

International fodboldpolitik belong to Jesper Møller, so here also there was a track to play on for Claus Bretton-Meyer.

– he got it partly fixed up, but the problems with the money is still present in the DB. The revenue fail, and sponsorproblemerne are well known. Yes, there will be more and more money from UEFA and FIFA, but it can DBU and Claus Bretton-Meyer the do not take credit for. Own revenue is still a smertensbarn of DBU.

the Question of course is whether or not he was fejlcastet from the start and it seems in retrospect quite clear on. The triumphs are few, the conflicts and fejlhåndteringerne more.

Why are Claus Bretton-Meyer, a parenthesis in DBU's history, and the historical landsholdskonflikt will always stand as his greatest wrong-headed as director.
