Prior to the 97-98 season, Salmrohr was partially "fusioned" with Eintracht Trier. What the membership was thinking, who knows. The basic is that Salmrohr gave up all it's good players to Trier and had to make do with youngsters. Sort of "give us all your good players, and we'll give you all our scrubs, then we'll kick your ass, and you'll like it too!". The idea apparently was to help Trier into the 2.Liga, which failed.
The squad sucked in 98-99, and should have been relegated. However, they benefitted from Homburg's and Wuppertal's legal problems, thereby saving their ass. Next year they finished dead last, 15 pts behind the next crappiest team. Neverthless, the club has managed to remain on the radar, which is quite an acomplishment.

Finally! The official popped up in 2001 as www.fsvsalmrohr.de . Until then,
NOTHING was available. You could find "Salmrohr" on the web, but as it
turned out, it was a table soccer league, or something. Maybe as part of
the
"fusion", they should have demanded that Trier fork over a web page!
