Career

societies

Gröner played from 1901 to 1913 for FC Union Stuttgart in the district class Südkreis and from 1913 to 1923 - after the merger with SV 1908 Gablenberg - for the Stuttgarter SC in the district league Württemberg . From 1923 to 1925, his time in Stuttgart was interrupted by two rounds in the main league at Kickers Offenbach, before the offensive player was active again from 1925 at his home club in Stuttgart until 1927. During his club membership in the SSC, the striker won the championship in the Württemberg regional league with the team from Gaskessel in the 1919/20 season and the southern championship with FC Union in 1918.

From 1923 to 1925 he played for two rounds at Kickers Offenbach in the district league Main and reached the runner-up behind FSV Frankfurt in 1924/25. In the book about the first 100 years of Kickers Offenbach from 2001 you can read: “Offenbach was in excitement, but not only in the city, but also on the 'Bersch' there were quarrels and disputes. It was the crowd favorite Emil Gröner who was the hot topic in the summer. The dispute over the old international, which had helped the Kickers a lot in recent years, put the peaceful coexistence to a severe test. Gröner's past achievements no longer met the high expectations. New, hungry players pushed in, so that there were two parties in the boardroom, one to which the crowd's darling was entitled to a temporary period of weakness and the other who wanted to give the youth more opportunities. The latter finally prevailed and so Gröner, who had scored seven goals against Phönix Karlsruhe three months earlier, turned his back on the OFC and rejoined his home club SC Stuttgart. "

In Bitter's national player lexicon , Gröner is described as a talented offensive player, usually found in the middle of the attack, equipped with a dry shot and compared to Eugen Kipp in Stuttgart . In the early to mid-1930s, his son wore the Stuttgarter Kickers jersey. Emil Gröner had lived as a businessman in Munich since the early 1950s, most recently in the Untermenzing district .

National team

His only international match for the senior national team he played on June 5, 1921 in Budapest in the 3-0 defeat against the national team of Hungary . The SSC striker made his debut with Henry Müller , Arthur Marohn , Karl Höger , Fritz Schnürle and Anton Kreß alongside center forward Adolf Jäger on half-left in the DFB selection. As the final round of the German football championship was running at the same time , only goalkeeper Heinrich Stuhlfauth from the semi-finalists 1. FC Nürnberg, Berliner FC Vorwärts, Hallescher FC Wacker and Duisburger SV in Budapest was available.

Others

From 1934 to 1935 he was the head coach of VfB Stuttgart and won the championship in the Gauliga Württemberg with VfB with players like Otto Bökle , Willi Rutz and Franz Seybold . He also trained SV 1908 Gablenberg, a district club in Stuttgart.
