Tomas Oral (born 24 April 1973) is a German football manager, coach and former player, who last managed Karlsruher SC.
Oral was hired as head coach for FSV Frankfurt prior to the 2006–07 season. His debut was a 2–0 win against 1. FC Schwalmstadt in the Hessenliga. He would finish the season in first place; losing only one match. The only loss of the season came on matchday 30 against Viktoria Aschaffenburg. The club's first-place finish meant promotion to the Regionalliga Süd. During the 2007–08 season, Frankfurt defeated the reserve team of 1860 München, drew against the reserve team of Bayern Munich, and recorded a pair of draws against the reserve team of VfB Stuttgart. Again, Frankfurt finished in first place and were promoted. During the 2008–09 season, Frankfurt played in the 2. Bundesliga and German Cup. Frankfurt started the season with a 2–0 win against VfL Osnabrück in the German Cup. However, they went winless in their first four league matches of the season. They were knocked out of the German Cup in the second round after losing 1–0 to Carl Zeiss Jena. Frankfurt finished the season in 15th place; two points above the relegation playoff spot. To start the 2009–10 season, Frankfurt was knocked out of the German Cup by Borussia Mönchengladbach. Oral resigned on 5 October 2009. Frankfurt were in 17th place at the time of his resignation. He finished with a record of 53 wins, 31 draws, and 29 losses.
