Coaching career

Borussia Mönchengladbach

Meier started his coaching career by taking over the reserve side of Borussia Mönchengladbach on1 July 1996.[1] Meier coached them until 30 November 1997.[1] Meier coached the senior squad between 1 December 1997 and 1 April 1998.[1] Meier rejoined the reserve team on 1 July 1998.[1]

MSV Duisburg

Meier officially took over for MSV Duisburg on 1 January 2003.[2] Meier is most recently noted as coach at MSV Duisburg when he lost his temper in their match against 1. FC Köln on 6 December 2005.[3] In the 82nd minute, Meier was arguing with Köln's Albert Streit when Meier suddenly fell down. Referee Manuel Gräfe sent Streit off with a red card. After the incident was reviewed on television, it became clear that it had not been Streit who hit Meier, but that Meier was play-acting. In fact, Meier had given Streit a headbutt. The club sacked Meier on 8 December 2005.[4] The German FA banned him for three months from any management activities on 15 December 2005.
