But it all got even worse. In June 2002, the club went bankrupt; it lost its licence and was relegated to the third division. In January 2005, the manager and two former presidents of the club were convicted and sentenced to one year and three years respectively in prison, though this was reduced to probation.
The issuing of a national league licence was tied to different economic prerequisites that had to be fulfilled by the associations. But soon, in October 1964, Joschi Walter and Gutmann resigned. Walter ‘felt himself to have been left alone with his reform programme by the state league, by the provincial associations, and even by the leading ÖFB officials.

Ever since these first attempts at modernization, Austrian football has oscillated back and forth between reforms and counter-reforms, but it was now on the way to becoming a truly national, Austrian phenomenon.
