Career as a player

Biskup began his football career as a defender at home with VfB Bottrop . He first moved to the then Oberliga West (top German division before the introduction of the Bundesliga) to Bayer 04 Leverkusen and for the 1965/66 season to league competitor Fortuna Düsseldorf , with whom he was promoted to the Bundesliga in his first season . After two more years for Düsseldorf, one each in the Bundesliga and one in the regional league, he moved to the then DFB Cup winner 1. FC Köln in 1968 .

There he became a regular player straight away. With FC he reached the semi-finals against FC Barcelona despite an exceptionally weak championship round in the European Cup Winners' Cup . In the following two seasons until 1971, Biskup lost the DFB Cup final with 1. FC Köln. In the 1970/71 season, the team was eliminated from the trade fair cup only in the semi-finals against Juventus Turin . After another Bundesliga year for FC, he went to FC Lüttich in 1972 .

Career as a coach

In Liège, Belgium, Biskup switched to the coaching position. In 1976 he returned to Germany, to the then second division Prussia Münster . Several times he narrowly missed promotion to the Bundesliga with the team. In 1980 he moved to the competitor of the 2nd Bundesliga North, VfL Osnabrück , who made the leap into the now single-track 2nd Bundesliga with him - his previous club, however, had to relegate. He moved again within the league to Bayer 05 Uerdingen (now KFC Uerdingen).

After internal difficulties, he joined Hannover 96 . In 1984 he saved the club from relegation to the 3rd division and, in the following year, completely surprisingly led it to promotion to the 1st division.

During the period of his greatest success, however, he suffered personal setbacks; his alcoholism caused the club to part with his successful coach. His next coaching positions at SV Arminia Hannover (from January 16, 1986 to November 21, 1986 in the Amateur-Oberliga Nord), at Trabzonspor and at KSV Hessen Kassel (the Hessians rose from the 2. Bundesliga from) were under the influence of his illness.

In 1992 he completed withdrawal therapy, after which he returned as a coach at the Mittelrhein Football Association. According to his own admission, he was "dry" and supposedly had "long since finished" with the alcohol. It wasn't until after 2000 that he actually managed to get his addiction under control.

After relegation from the second division in 1993, VfL Osnabrück hired Biskup again as a coach. In the first year of his return, he narrowly missed the return to professional life. But his illness caught up with him again during the next season and Biskup was released at the beginning of 1995.

After years without employment, he took over VfL Köthen, which he led into the regional league. In 2000 he moved to the league for BV Cloppenburg and then in the Osnabrück-Stadt district league for SC Lüstringen, with whom he was relegated in the 2002/03 season.

Biskup last lived in Cloppenburg and was there since November 2005 coach at SC Sternbusch, which rose as a champion in the Cloppenburg district league in the 2006/07 season. In the 2007/08 season, SC Sternbusch was fourth under his leadership and moved into the county cup final. In March 2009 he left the club and worked as a player scout in Lower Saxony for 1. FC Cologne. On March 20, 2012, Biskup was again committed as a coach of the 1st men's team of SC Sternbusch. He still had good contacts to his former club Hannover 96. In March 2008 he was working on recordings for the audio book Gustav - another goal as a guest speaker alongside Robert Enke .

Werner Biskup died in 2014 at the age of 72 in a hospital in Quakenbrück as a result of a stroke .

Quotes from Biskup

“We take a circle and draw a circle 50 kilometers in diameter, with Hanover as the center. We are looking for talented young people and amateurs there. That is better than fetching anyone from Lake Constance! "

- Biskup before the 1985/86 season to the then President Horst-Fredo Henze of Hanover .

"The 18-year-olds - this is my world!"
