From 1957 to 1960, bung bottle was also the trainer of the Altona Black-White-Reds.

Selection team

The game designer, who has always been praised as a fair sportsman, has also been appointed to the North German team many times and is considered one of the greatest North German football personalities of all time. The fact that he did not come to international missions is attributed to the fact that his great time fell during the war and the subsequent forced abstinence of the DFB national team until 1950 . In addition, his position there was "blocked" by Fritz Walter .
