Athletic career

Heiko Räthe, who came from the junior division of FC Rot-Weiß Erfurt , played for RWE's reserve team in two seasons in the mid- 1980s in the second-rate league . For the second division consisting of only two seasons, the FC Rot-Weiß II had qualified in 1984 as Erfurt district champion and winner of group 2 of the league promotion round. After the relegation of Rot-Weiß II at the end of the 1985/86 season , the defensive player went to BSG Motor Weimar together with his Erfurt teammate Frank Holick .

In the late autumn of 1987, Räthe was called up to the National People's Army . Within the army sports association Vorwärts , the Thuringian ran in the season 1987/88 for the ASG Vorwärts Stralsund . After the end of the 1988/89 season , in which he had finished 8th with the Stralsunders, he returned to Erfurt.

In the turnaround season of 1989/90 and in the last independent season of East German first division football , the defender was used in 38 games in the elite league of GDR football . With 3rd place in the division, which is now known as the NOFV-Oberliga , the red-whites achieved on the one hand the direct qualification for the premiere season of the all-German 2nd Bundesliga and on the other hand were among the last NOFV representatives in the European Cup in 1991/92 .

Although part of the Erfurt Oberliga squad, Räthe was also able to play for BSG Motor Weimar in autumn 1989. As a result of the newly introduced contract play, up to six players from a top division squad received a guest permit for a league eleven. From the winter of 1989/90 Räthe played firmly in the RWE team and did not return to the second division until the dissolution of East German football .

After reunification , he played 29 games in the 2nd Bundesliga and was active for Rot-Weiß Erfurt in three UEFA Cup games in 1991/92 . However, the team from the Steigerwaldstadion in the German league system did not succeed in staying in league 2 . For a game year councilors remained the Erfurters in the low ranks faithful - 1992/93 was RWE in Südstaffel the amateur league in third place. The former first division kicker then moved to SV Landau together with Jürgen Heun .
