“Ollig did not use his capabilities for actions to distinguish himself from national socialism. On the contrary: even where he would have the opportunity to escape through the regime, he usually decided to actively support him, ”says Selina Albertz from the FC Saint -Pauli museum and Peter Roomer from the Nazi Memorial in Munster. Albertz called the debate among the club fans with the podcast about Olliga, who led to the community sang songs initially suspended before the blow.
Ollig wrote a lyrics in 1956 under the pseudonym Arno Grillo, as Albertz investigated. There he has long been a local boss in Hamurgger AbendblattWhere he later rose to the deputy editor -in -chiceei. But before the end of the war, he put himself in the service of the Nazi regime.
Ollig was in 1929 on the right -National Hamurgger messages He left whose editorial team openly supported NSDAP in 1930. As an officer of the press in Shell, he brought group publications to a tough party line since 1933. During the war, he served as a military speaker in a propaganda company. In this position, on the one hand, he celebrated the Wehrmacht and the Fuhrer, and on the other hand, with the particularly deguman descriptions of the East European opponents of the war.
After the war, the British military administration still hired it for a daily newspaper WorldThe field in the subsequent procedure of denasification Ollig tried to present his role in the future. For example, he denied his authorship in an article published in the magazine “Shell”, in which he distributed myths about the conspiracy around the murder of George Elser to Hitler. This carries his abbreviation. Failures: the examiners came to the decision that Ollig was inappropriate for the democratic press.
Only an increasingly careless practice of denasification owes that he finally received “can be used” the seal (can be used). Before his death in 1982, Ollig did not publicly reflect on his role in national socialism, Albertz and the Romans write in their report.

The facts that they gathered had an effect: several supporters of the club said that during the presentation of several hundred people in the ballroom of the Milnertor Stadium, they were held at the beginning of the debate about Ollig, that they could still be divided between the problematic past and his work and Ollig in the version of the Punk played in the Milnerter. Nevertheless, this has changed in the light of historical knowledge, for some even during the evening.
The proposal was not very approved to continue to sing the “heart of St. Pauli”, but thanks to a powerful commitment to antiphasism before and after the “frame”. Also, to maintain a melody and provide a new text with a new text found only by a few convincing fans.
“Anti -fascism is inconvenient”
This was a clear majority: Olliga’s song cannot again play the anti -fascist association, even if many regret it personally. “Anti -fascism is inconvenient,” the woman summed up, “but this is the most convenient uncomfortable thing that can be there. It’s just a song. “
Many wanted the new song to be looking for even talking about the songs of the songs FC-St.-Pauli. The applause also received a fan who said: “I find shit shit. We do so much in the other way: we have no stadium names, there are no hysterical moderators – why should we have the anthem of the stadium? ”
The President of the Association will now make a decision at the beginning of the season. “And then you may not choose us for this,” said the president of the Oka Gettlich. The fact that the decision is to play in the “heart of St. Pauli” is less clear after this evening than when.
