Walter Böhme (born September 12, 1919 in Schleswig ; † unknown) was a German football player and coach who became the title character of a biographical novel by Rainer Kerndl during the “Cold War” .

The footballer from Schleswig-Holstein was part of the “wonder team” of FC St. Pauli in the mid-1940s , but moved to Altona 93 before the start of the first league season . There he contributed a number of goals in the autumn series of 1949 to the league promotion he finally achieved in 1950, but had withdrawn himself into lower-class football during the season, probably because of disappointed hopes for a job through mediation by the club. Numerous comeback attempts at various clubs failed, although teammates like Harald Stender said the striker had good skills.

In the mid-1950s, Böhme decided to move to the GDR . There he signed a letter to 300 "sports fans in the west of our German homeland", in which he distanced himself from the DFB's contract football and "those club bosses that are only rampant in the west", "whose arbitrariness many of you still have to suffer from."

Walter Böhme became a player coach in Leipzig and wrote the book "... played for money" with Kerndl , which was published in 1958 in East Berlin . Later he lived back in the Federal Republic and was coach at VfB Gießen .

Trivia

Böhme claims to have played as a guest player in Dresden , but the name of the club is not mentioned in the book. With the Walter Böhme of the Dresdner SC , afterwards also player-coach at Vorwärts Schwerin , he was not identical.
