Reinhold Jackstell

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Reinhold Jackstell (born August 2, 1923 in Hamburg , † March 5, 2004 in Willstätt ) was a German football player and coach . He spent a significant part of his playing time in French clubs and was previously active in three major leagues in Germany . Jackstell was the prototype of a footballing "wandering bird" that hardly stayed with any of his clubs for more than a season or two.

When Reinhold Jackstell came to the second division Altona 93 in the summer of 1949 , he was already 26 years old. About his previous career, especially the time before and during the Second World War , we only know that he played for Turf Sports Harburg in 1942 and later for several years for Borussia Harburg . The team from the Süderelberaum had just been relegated from the association league (Alsterstaffel), while the Altonaer were getting ready to play first class again and to move up to the northern German league. The newcomer immediately fitted in successfully as a striker in the Altona attack series, in which Heinz Mühle was an "old warrior" and occasionally Werner Erb, a very young talent who still played in the A-youth. Jackstell denied in the 1949/50 season 21 of the 22 association league matches and shot 31 of the 66 goals of the AFC. He also managed to assert himself in the very numerous friendly matches at the time, for example he scored two against the higher-class FC St. Pauli (on the occasion of the inauguration of the rebuilt Adolf-Jäger-Kampfbahn , final score 5-4), against Werder Bremen (3-6) and Eimsbütteler TV (3: 3) even every three Altona hits. He proved just as efficient in the subsequent league promotion round, which was by no means a self-runner for the 93ers: Reinhold Jackstell scored three goals each against Eintracht Osnabrück and Goslar 08 as well as at least two in the decisive, 4-1 won game at Bremen's representative Blumenthaler SV , whereupon the Hamburger Morgenpost headlined the next day: “Jackstell gates decide”.

In the subsequent league season he was absent in several point games due to injury, made only 18 appearances and only six hits. In the end, Altona 93 had to return to the now single-track Hamburg amateur league, if only because of his poor goal difference, and Jackstell was one of the large group of players who then left the club in the summer of 1951. The Stuttgarter Kickers had given him a position at the Landessparkasse, which enabled him to significantly increase his not particularly high salary as a contract player . This season he played 29 games, mostly alongside striker Siegfried Kronenbitter , but was only moderately successful with nine goals. Early in the 1951/52 season he expressed his wish to return to Hamburg, for which the Kickers refused to give him permission; after the Degerloch only ranked twelfth in the final ranking of the Oberliga Süd, the club board then agreed to his change. However, Reinhold Jackstell did not go to his hometown, but accepted an offer from the western upper division club Schwarz-Weiß Essen , which - like the Kickers in Stuttgart - was regarded as an association of the "wealthy bourgeoisie". In his 22 top division games there, he scored ten goals; however, he ended the 1952/53 season with SWE only in the lower middle of the table (13th place). In the memorable local derby against RWE , Jackstell was on the half-left in the black and white team, which was canceled after 37 minutes when the score was 1-1 due to a goal post break - the first in German league history (September 21, 1952 on Hafenstrasse ) had to. In this short, very heated game on "rainy, slippery ground, Jackstell and 'Penny' Islacker [kicked] each other in the shins that only cracked". His Altona strike partner Werner Erb, however, does not remember that Jackstell was a particularly combative or tough player, but named his good ball technique as the most prominent feature.

Even in Essen it only lasted for a year. Shortly before his 30th birthday, he joined the Lens Racing Club . The squad of northern France Erstdivisionärs even sat down in the 1950s, although the vast majority of from the region coming miners together, but the financial strength of standing behind the association mining company allowed him in individual cases again and again to oblige foreign footballers, which they then - including Reinhold Jackstell - created a well paid job. Carsten's claim that Jackstell became the “first German professional in France” in 1953 is, however, incorrect because 17 Germans, including well-known ones such as Walter Kaiser , Walter Vollweiler and Ossi Rohr , had already taken this route by 1939 . Even after the Second World War , others before him, such as Heinrich Skiba , Kurt Clemens and Karl-Heinz Spikofski , switched to professional football in France.

At Lens he played in a good team that included teammates like Xercès Louis , the Dutchman Wilhelm van Lent , Théodore Szkudlapski and the young Maryan Wisnieski . Jackstell was considered in 23 league games, scored nine goals in them, finished the season in seventh place in the table - and still moved on to the second division SCO Angers in 1954 . He stayed in Angers for two and a quarter years and contributed in a total of 55 league games with 19 goals to the fact that the Sporting Club de l'Ouest rose to the top French league at the end of the 1955/56 season . The German striker was seen there as an “excellent scorer [and] a dangerous fighter for the opposing defenders”. When Angers, whose most famous players included Jules Sbroglia , Henri Biancheri , Kazimir Hnatow and Claude Bourrigault , played a good role in Division 1 in 1956/57 and even reached the final in the national cup , he had - whether it was at his own request or because of it the decision of his club happened cannot be determined from the literature used - he only played two games and was already wearing the dress of the capital city club Stade Français from October 1956 . The two seasons that followed there - both in the second division - were rather disappointing: SF only bobbed around in the lower middle of the table, and Jackstell played a total of only 32 games (ten of his own goals).

The questions that cannot be answered from the literature used include what prompted Reinhold Jackstell in 1958 to continue his career in Algeria (Algérie Française) , of all places, which was shaken by civil war ; these could have been sporting, personal or professional motives for the almost 35-year-old. He stayed there for four years, in which he wore the dress of three clubs: in Algiers at Olympique du Littoral , then from 1959 to 1961 in Orléansville, now known as Ech Cheliff , with the local Groupe Sportif and 1961/62 with SC Bel-Abbès . In Sidi bel Abbès he may have worked as a player- coach. All three clubs only competed in the highest regional amateur league, the Algerian Division d'Honneur , and only GS Orléansville played a better role as a semi-finalist in the Coupe de l'Algérie 1959/60 and fourth in the championship finals in 1960/61. Jackstell doesn't seem to have left a lasting impression in Algeria in terms of football; in a report from January 1962 about a game between SC Bel-Abbès and his previous club GSO he is not mentioned.

After Algerian independence, he returned to mainland France, first to the Vendée , where he played a season for the lower-class amateur club SC Challans, then, apparently for professional reasons (see below), to the Loiret department , east of Orléans . There his clubs, also at best regionally significant, were called AS Gien and CS Pithiviers; it can be assumed that he acted as a player-coach during these years. In Pithiviers , Reinhold Jackstell ended his playing career in 1966, shortly before his 43rd birthday, in which he had completed a total of 212 games with 84 goals in the top divisions since 1949, 69/25 in Germany and 25/9 in France 31/21 in Germany and 87/29 in France's second division. He could not win a title with any of his numerous clubs.

Life after time as a player

Possibly as early as 1963, but no later than 1965, Reinhold Jackstell worked as a commercial clerk at BASF , initially at Suma SA, a subsidiary opened in Gien in 1962 , and from 1966 in Willstätt in Baden-Württemberg , where BASF opened a plant for the Production of magnetic tapes opened and where Jackstell lived until his death. Back in Germany, he also trained several amateur teams in the German-French border region, including a third division club with the Kehler FV 1966/67. The SV Oberkirch and SV Haslach followed as further stations ; it was followed by clubs from Bischofswill (this could have been the Alsatian FC Bischwiller - Bischofswill is the historical name of Bischwiller ), Schiltigheim (probably the Sporting Club ) and finally - also in France - the Étoile Sportive Wolfisheim. Jackstell is said to have developed Alzheimer's later ; he died at the age of 81.
