Paul Honkisch

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Paul Honkisch (born August 17, 1924 ) is a former German soccer player. At Hannover 96 and SG Eisenhüttenwerk Thale he played in the first division teams.

Athletic career

As a 17-year-old Honkisch is said to have played in the Gauliga team of Hannover 96 . Among other things, he was used in two Tschammerpokal games in the 1941/42 and 1942/43 seasons ; in the matches Hannover 96 - SV Linden 07 (1941, 2nd round, 5: 1) and Fortuna Leipzig - Hannover 96 (1942, 1st round, 4: 2) he scored a goal every time. There seems to be no evidence to support the assumption that the guest player at the time, Pawlik , was Honkisch. After the end of the Second World War (the real) Paul Honkisch settled in the Altmark .

In 1947/48 at Hannover 96 at the beginning of the spring series a player named "Pawlik" appeared again, who allegedly had left Katowice shortly before and therefore - as a refugee without a club - did not have to wait for a blocking period. He was used twice, scored both goals for 96 in the 2: 5 against Hamburger SV , but then disappeared again from the match reports. Only much later did it emerge that it was actually Paul Honkisch who, as the (unofficially) so-called "zone jumper", was supposed to strengthen the team. The German Football Committee , however, had shortly before this common practice by Fellbacher decision prohibited and again specifically required compliance with the prescribed three-month ban by Verein change.

Honkisch played at ZSG Salzwedel until 1950 . That year the SG Eisenhüttenwerk ( EHW Thale for short ) became soccer champions of Saxony-Anhalt . The team then qualified via a promotion round for the 1950/51 season of the GDR Oberliga and in August of the same year they won the FDGB Cup . Honkisch wasn't there yet, but was accepted into the newcomer's top division squad for the new season and played his first league game on the seventh game of the season in the match between SG EHW and activist Brieske-Ost (5: 2). Honkisch scored his first league goal in a 5-3 home win against SG Lichtenberg 47 on matchday 11. He made it 4-3. In the 17 league games in the first half of the season he was used seven times and scored two goals. After the winter break, Honkisch moved back to Salzwedel. He played there in the national class and helped with a number of goals to avoid relegation, but later did not appear in higher-class football.
