Ernst Middendorp (born October 28, 1958 in Freren ) is a German football coach .
Coaching career
Before his professional coaching career, Middendorp worked from 1986 to 1994 at various vocational schools as a teacher for economics, politics and IT.
Middendorp coached Arminia Bielefeld three times : first from 1988 to 1990, then again from 1994 to 1998. During his second job, he led Arminia from the regional league to the Bundesliga. After he became head coach of Arminia for the third time in March 2007, he was released from all duties in the club on December 10, 2007 after a series of defeats (a win from eleven point games). So this engagement at Arminia, like the two previous ones, was ended prematurely. Shortly before the release, Middendorp had extended his contract with Ostwestfalen until 2009 with the option of another season in the event of relegation in the 2007/08 season.
At the beginning of April 2009, Middendorp succeeded Michael Kulm, who had just been dismissed, as head coach at Rot-Weiss Essen . However, the club separated from him after four defeats in five league games. On May 6, 2009, an early termination of the two-year contract was agreed after 29 days. One day later, Middendorp signed a one-year contract with 13-time Cypriot champion Anorthosis Famagusta .
On July 24, 2009, Anorthosis Famagusta announced on the club's website that Middendorp had been sacked after their disappointing end in the second qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League against OFK Petrovac .
In mid-November it became known that Middendorp was moving to South Africa again. He was introduced as the new coach of the first division club Maritzburg United ; previously he had worked as a trainer for the Kaizer Chiefs in Johannesburg from 2005 to 2007 . On March 12, 2011, he was fired from Maritzburg United because, according to the club, he had abused his players on television. On September 30, 2011 Middendorp was sacked at his next stop in South Africa, the Lamontville Golden Arrows , despite a 2-1 win over his former club Kaizer Chiefs. From January 2012 to October 2013 he was back at Maritzburg United in the dugout, although he had only been fired there ten months earlier. On October 10, 2013, Middendorp broke his contract to move to league rivals Bloemfontein Celtic . After Chippa United and Free State Stars , he has been head coach at Maritzburg United again since the end of 2015.
Arminia coach of the century
On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of Arminia Bielefeld's club in 2005, Middendorp was voted “Coach of the Century”. The club's statement on the election result was as follows: At the end of the 80s, he “built a completely new, identity-creating team from scratch and led Arminia from the regional league to the Bundesliga during his second term in office. Brilliant motivator, but not in possession of a diplomatic passport. "
Middendorp at VfL Bochum
After relegation from the Bundesliga, Middendorp replaced Klaus Toppmöller as coach of VfL Bochum in the summer of 1999 . The aim was to return to the House of Lords immediately. After two wins from the first two games, VfL were leaders. However, since the next seven games were no longer won, after two clear home defeats against Energie Cottbus and Tennis Borussia Berlin (2: 6) they slipped to a relegation zone and parted ways with Middendorp. His successor was temporarily Bernard Dietz , who was replaced by Ralf Zumdick at the turn of the year . At the end of the season, Bochum managed to get promoted back to the Bundesliga in second place.
