Already in the preparation of the FC Thun had revealed significant weaknesses in the test matches, which were ultimately synonymous with high defeats in line.
The team structure remained largely stable during the summer. Only the departure of Spielmann to Young Boys Bern is painful. Due to the manageable financial resources at FC Thun, hardly anything was invested in this transfer window. The summer new additions strengthen the crew of Schneider mainly in the Kaderbreite.
