8:22 am
dark those comments have received much public criticism including from the shock a fan an initiative supporters group that has worked with the club to fight against racism in football 25 years. against the law to the large number of people who have contacted a share of views namely that the comments are massively racist and the apology offered is insufficient and in fact not an apology at all zana franca says attorneys must be removed from his position at the club. i consider it's claimants intolerable for clemens tourney's to continue in his role at the club which is a high profile and important role here. fans in guessing cation are divided on the issue you have 10 years future at the club. and clinton there shouldn't be any consequences they should just move on it was
8:23 am
a slip of the tongue it wasn't meant in a bad way to speak of mind in this quote. one is of games out of the question and intolerable in my view 10 years has to be removed and if shaka doesn't do that then i would probably quit as a member because that's not ok i also just can't donnish the decision now rests with shock is on a very board. ok that honorary board will be meeting today and taking up this issue yeah and the pressure is certainly on we have from fans there but also some former players with african roots from the club have condemned the comments the german justice minister casino language has gotten involved calling on the german football association to act they seem to be waiting for this on a very board which isn't a normal football club board this is more of an ethics commission of the club 5 members basically unknown to the fans who want football functionaries conditions of it to them at least have to be eligible for judgeships at the at this moment the 5

8:25 am
a co-founder of the group who was they were trying to raise for medical treatment with a t. shirt but the club have since come back and said this was a farce and we were wrong to trust him and of course ken that's the club and the city links with neo nazi ism in recent times last august the city sold 2 days of far right violence with several injuries and the fan groups who seem central to coordinating this all so strong. that firing they're taking care of that situation will find out more today about the clemens tony turner story ok max thanks very much for joining us now it's all aboard for a story about a tram driver from frankfurt germany is planning to run for mayor his name he's 57 somewhat of a fitness not and a celebrity in that city recently want to vacation a t.v. show and donated this prize for the family of a sick child now this time drivers hoping his newfound fame will give him an inside
