Bitter further notes that the session is scheduled to reconvene Monday and make an announcement sometime in the late morning or early afternoon.
Key veteran players Simon Zoller and Anthony Losilla were nevertheless unwavering in their support of their long-time trainer. Reis also still enjoys a loyal following in the club’s fan base. If Fabian is to terminate Reis, he will need to have a fan-supported candidate ready to replace him in place soon. Such a task is obviously not easy as recruiting a candidate for the job will prove tough.
Bitter writes that, if a decision is to be released on Monday, it will only cover whether Reis will be given another chance against 1. FC Köln next Sunday. It might not be the case that Reis himself will appreciate a one-match-endorsement that could constitute nothing more than a ploy to buy more time for the club managers.
For his part, Reis did emphasize that the team continued to follow him during his post-match comments. The VfL gaffer reiterated this on Sunday and did express a desire to coach the squad against Köln. It would appear that Reis is prepared to play along.
