The era of long-time Werder Bremen board of directors chairman Jürgen L. Born ended in style on Tuesday evening with a farewell celebration. The Green-Whites invited numerous friends, companions and former colleagues to the Outer Roads restaurant to make a bit easier the farewell of the financial expert, who helped bring forward the Bundesliga club since 1999.

 

It was not easy for the 68-year-old – "just like all things that are a pleasure", as Born stated in his usually witty speech. Born said his work was made easier by the humanity in a business in which so much money changes hands as well as the normal necessities which still exist at a top club like Werder despite all the advancements. And it was all work done on an honorary basis. "I got at least two cups of coffee a day. If you calculate that out, it’s quite a bit," said Born smiling.

 

Born’s final record makes for a fine example. Werder increased turnover from a converted 33 million euros to 113 million euros last year as well as the expansion of all important business fields, including the professionalism of the media work, for which Born was also responsible in the board of directors.
