career

Gauliga with Altona and the LSV Hamburg

At the end of the 1937/38 season, a merger took place between Altona 93 and the neighboring club Borussia Bahrenfeld. In terms of sport, Borussia brought the excellent technician and goalscorer Heinz Mühle into the connection. The young player developed from 1939 to the great conductor of the AFC. In the war round 1940/41 Adolf Jäger's son , Rolf, also made his debut in the 1st team of Altonaer FC, and Mühle was used in the Nordmark selection in the Reichsbund Cup against Danzig / West Prussia. He scored a goal in the 3-1 win. In the Gauliga season 1942/43, Altona took third place - behind champions Victoria and runner-up Hamburger SV - and Mühle had scored 24 goals in 16 league games.

In the second half of 1943, Mühle was delegated to the Air Force Sports Club Groß-Hamburg (LSV). The military team, which consisted of so-called “anti-aircraft fighters”, was able to play through the two years of its existence in an almost unchanged formation, which is why it was unpopular with the old clubs.

In the autumn series - from the end of August to the end of October 1943 - of the 1943/44 season , the Luftwaffe SV competed as a representative of the Hamburg district in the “Tschammer Cup” , the forerunner of the DFB Cup. After victories over SpVgg Wilhelmshaven 05 (1: 0), Luftwaffen-SV Pütnitz (3: 2), Holstein Kiel (4: 2) and Dresdner SC (2: 1), Hamburg reached the final in Stuttgart. In this, however, Vienna Vienna retained the upper hand 3-2 after extra time and won the last competition held until the end of the war. Mühle had formed the right wing with the half-forward Ludwig Janda on the right wing. In the 2-1 semi-final success against the top team of the Dresdner SC on October 17, they had prevailed against their international defensive players such as Willibald Kress , Herbert Pohl , Walter Dzur and Helmut Schubert . In the final in Stuttgart, however, the LSV series of attacks could not prevent the blue and yellow Vienna from narrowing through in extra time. Mühle had played all five games in the cup competition and scored one goal. Against the Viennese, he primarily dealt with defender Karl Bortoli .

Mühle and his playmates belonged to the Gauliga Hamburg with the LSV in the 1943/44 season . The selection trained by ex-national player Karl Höger won the championship in Hamburg with 35: 1 points and 117: 13 goals. On January 16 and March 19, 1944, the LSV and the Rote Jäger soldiers carried out two propaganda games in Hamburg. In January the LSV lost 2: 3 goals, in the second leg they took revenge with a 5: 1 win.

The unrivaled team in Hamburg, due to numerous player commitments from all over the country - including Willy Juerissen , Robert "Zapf" ​​Gebhardt , Ludwig Janda , Karl Miller , Walter Ochs , Reinhold Munzenberg , Heinrich Gärtner , Jakob Lotz - defeated the German team in the subsequent final Championship one after the other Wehrmacht-SV Celle (4: 0), SpVgg Wilhelmshaven 05 (1: 1 after extra time and 4: 2), war syndicate Duisburger SpV and TuS 48/99 Duisburg (3: 0). In the semi-finals in Hanover, the hurdle of Heeres-SV Groß Born was overcome by two Mühle goals with 3-2 goals, with their middle runner Wilhelm Sold demanding everything from the LSV attackers. Thus, after the cup final of the previous year, the LSV was again in a final. In front of 70,000 spectators in Berlin on June 18, 1944, it was not enough to win the title this year: the defending champion Dresdner SC took revenge for the semi-final defeat in the Tschammer Cup and clearly beat LSV Hamburg 4-0. The quality of the DSC defense around goalkeeper Kreß, the outstanding runner row with Pohl, Dzur and Schubert put the attack of the Saxons around Richard Hofmann and Helmut Schön in a position to clearly decide the game for themselves in the second half. The man from Alton 93 had played all six finals for the military team as a right half-forward and scored three goals.

The LSV was dissolved in September 1944 and Heinz Mühle was again eligible to play for his parent club Altona 93 from the end of November. The black-white-reds took second place in the Gauliga Hamburg in 1944/45 and Mühle had scored six goals in five games.

After the Second World War, 1945 to 1954

After the end of the Second World War, football for the AFC took place in the top of the Hamburg City League . The goal-threatening driver Mühle scored 27 goals in the two opening rounds 1945/46 and 1946/47 in 36 league games, but with sixth place in 1947 Altona did not qualify for the newly introduced football league north for the 1947/48 season. In addition to his two appointments to the Hamburg selection against Lower Saxony and Cologne, the AFC conductor convinced particularly in the two games on April 28 and December 15, 1946 against Hamburger SV. In the 1-1 draw in April he scored the 1-1 draw and in the 6-3 win in December he even scored four goals.

In issue no. 18 of the “Sport” magazine of May 7, 1947, under the heading “Football letter from Central Germany”, it is noted that “in the Altonaer Mühle the team from SG Gablenz received a welcome reinforcement”. Since in the first years after the end of the Second World War it had become common practice to ignore the “actually” valid three-month blocking period for interzonal changes, a short-term change could actually have taken place, so that it was possible for Mühle, first in Altona and then later in Chemnitz-Gablenz - which later became the BSG Konsum - to have played. At the beginning of April 1947 he was in the Chemnitz squad for the city game against Berlin.

After two titles in the Elbeliga Hamburg - 1947/48 and 1949/50 - Mühle succeeded with Altona in the second attempt in 1950 the promotion to the football upper league north. To win the title in the Elbeliga, the "fighter with the high forehead" on the side of the striker Reinhold Jackstell (31 goals) contributed 13 goals in 21 league games, to which two more goals were added in the successful promotion round in five missions. In keeping with the promotion to the first class of the Oberliga Nord, the inauguration game of the renovated Adolf-Jäger-Kampfbahn took place on May 1, 1950 in front of 8,000 spectators against FC St. Pauli. The AFC won the game with 5: 4 goals and Jackstell and Mühe scored two goals each. The 18-year-old Werner Erb made his debut in the center forward position .

With a home game against SV Arminia Hannover Altona started on August 21, 1950 in the Oberliga Nord. In front of 7,000 spectators, the 30-year-old mill brought the black-white-reds 2-0 in the opening minutes (1st / 9th minute) with two hits. In the end, Arminia won the game with 5-2 goals. In the attack, the climber with Heinz Lehmann , Feldmann, Jackstell, Mühle and Fiegen started. On the second day of the match, on August 28, the derby against FC St. Pauli was on the agenda. In front of 15,000 spectators, the eventual runner-up at Millerntor prevailed with 8-1 goals and the AFC started the season with 0-4 points. The two games against the champions Hamburger SV brought about 6:16 goals for the goal difference. With the catch-up game on May 3, 1951 against Hannover 96, Altona ended the round after 32 match days. Mill played on half left and the home game was won 3-1 goals. The AFC was in 14th place with 26:38 points. On May 21, Eintracht Osnabrück secured in another catch-up game, level on points with the AFC through the better goal difference, relegation. Mühle had scored six goals in 18 league games, the young attacker Werner Erb had scored twelve goals in 28 league games.

After relegation, Mühle broke his footballing tents in Bahrenfeld and joined the blue-and-yellow team from SC Victoria Hamburg for the 1951/52 season, who had just made promotion to the league. For the veteran, however, the time with Victoria did not bring lasting success in the league. Although Mühle scored eleven goals in 25 league games for the eleven from the Hoheluft stadium in his first year , Victoria was relegated to the amateur camp as 15th. After the immediate return in 1952/53, the 33-year-old mill rose for the second time with Victoria after the 1953/54 season from the Oberliga Nord.

After a total of 51 competitive games with 18 goals in the first-class soccer Oberliga Nord, Heinz Mühle ended his playing career in the summer of 1954. According to Bitter (p. 439), he is said to have worked as a trainer at Altona 93 in 1968. During Erich Garske's coaching activity - Football Regionalliga Nord 1967/68 - he was on the league committee of the AFC (Hamburger Abendblatt of October 13, 1967) and then himself as a coach at Altona (Hamburger Abendblatt of July 29, 1968). The mentioned player stations at Chemnitzer BC and FC St. Pauli cannot be proven from the literature used.

For the club writer Norbert Carsten, the “great technician and, despite his slim figure, an outstanding scorer” was one of Altona's most important players in the period from 1908 to 2008. That is why he has the “impressive conductor” Heinz Mühle in his subjective eleven of the century taken into account by Altona 93.
