And I am fucking angry about it! That was shit what we played, because we were an Aufbaugegner for a second class team and an Abstiegskandidat. Really, was soll diese Scheiße, Herr Stanislawski?

Yes, it was unexpected.

Quoting LTU932 (Reply 99):
The amount of liabilities they have are already known and were discussed here before. The real question is why the DFL is still giving them a Spiellizenz. If this was e.g. Dynamo Dresden, VfB Lübeck or Stuttgarter Kickers, they wouldn't even have survived the Lizenzierungsverfahren, yet it seems to me that Schlacke got an Extrawurst.

Always depends on the assets that you have, compared to the liabilities. However, that is a whole lotta money. Most of it must come from the stadium. If they go to the second league, they'll hardly have the income to serve their credits and pay a decent team.

Quoting LTU932 (Reply 99):
I sincerely doubt Raúl would even be willing to play unterklassig. He'd probably rather play for Barcelona than play in the zweite Liga.

I'm not talking about Raúl. Schlacke paid nothing for him, he will be 34 next summer. The problem is rather that players like Neuer, Höwedes, Jurado, Rakitic, Farfán, and Huntelaar - like all others - can leave without Schlacke getting a single penny for them.

And here the Saturday results:

HSV - Hoffenheim 2:1
Frankfurt - Wolfsburg 3:1
M'gladbach - FC Bayern 3:3
Freiburg - Mainz 1:0
Nürnberg - Köln 3:1

Mainz loses again, Bayern still can't win, not even against Gladbach (who keeps on getting three per game on average), Köln (Cologne) still loses, even without Soldo, HSV beats Hoffenheim at home, Wolfsburg is still weak.

Here is what van Gaal, Lahm, Matthäus, Calmund, Kahn, Özil, and others had to say.

Another game day with a severe lack of points in the Tippspiel. Bayern is too fvcking stupid to win against Gladbach. Admittedly, they hit the Alu 3 times during the first half, but the way they started the second half, that was just pathetic.

What I found ridiculous: They were not allowed to serve drinks during the game because the DFB said so, during the game everyone has to sit outside to watch the game instead of sitting in the lounge and drinking. Excuse me please, we paid friggin' 119 EUR per ticket and the DFB tells us when we have to drink and when not? I will send these clowns an eMail next week to ask if they are for real!

Oh yes, and my Bundesliga coach idol was there as well yesterday night. Peter Neururer enjoyed a few glasses of red wine and a few smokes (so I got the idea to drink red wine as well).

They already tell you what (not) to wear. It is not allowed to enter a Bundesliga stadium with clothes from the lable "Thor Steinar" because it is the preferred clothes brand of hooligans and neo-nazis. Not that I have a problem with that because I do not own "Thor Steinar" stuff but I find it a bit ridiculous to make such a generalization.

Unfortunately he dosn't have a job as a coach at the moment. He appears quite often as an analyzer at Bundesliga-Aktuell on Sport1 or at Liga-total. I don't know why he can't get a job as a coach again, he is pretty intelligent and he has a clue about football. The VfL should have hired him again instead of Funkel.

But who knows, maybe he becomes the new Schalke coach when Magath has to go.

This is part of our Gutmenschen-Empörungs-Überwachungs-society. Just be "PC" at all costs. As long as those clothes can be bought and sold legally, they can't just forbid them in a stadium. But some organisations make their own laws, it seems.

Maybe he'll go to Bremen. Au weia, Werder. 0:6 against struggling Stuttgart. One has to watch out for Stuttgart. They have a young team with many players in the ages 20-25. They are not so strong this season, but against Gladbach and now against Werder, they show what's possible. But Werder is really in trouble now.

I am really curious if Schaaf has to go now after 11 years at Werder. Ok, they are famous for keeping their coaches even in hard times but enough is enough, that was an unexampled disgrace tonight. I bet they will fire him when they also lose their game vs. Frankfurt next week.

Something tells me that at this stage, though nothing about it has been made public, Schaaf and Allofs are no longer unumstritten. The big cheese at SV Werder will be putting both under big scrutiny. And the curious thing is, though Schaaf and Allofs had made great choices with players in the past (e.g. Diego), they are slipping. First the Carlos Alberto fiasco, now the issue with total Fehleinkäufe like Arnautovic and Silvestre. Hell, if I was a fan of the SVW, I'd probably consider Arnautovic to be a Fehleinkauf of the proportion of a Super-GAU.

I really like Werder, and I like that they keep their coaches for so long. Rehhagel 1981-1995 (he wasn't fired, he left for FCB), then four years with many chanches, but from 1999 to today only Schaaf. Much more sympathetic than teams that have 2.5 coaches per year.

Schaaf and Allofs made some great transfers (Micoud, Diego, Özil) and many good ones. Werder isn't that richt, they need to get players with a lot of potential that are not so overly expensive. Carlos Alberto was a big failure. Silvestre and Arnautovic seem to be failures, too, but it is maybe a little too early to judge them. But I do think that Marin was a mistake. 8.2 € for such a dwarf? He isn't fast enough to run around good defenders and he is way too light to push himself through a defense. In addition, his passes are not of that high quality either.

Werder's names are better than their position on the table. Schaaf and Allofs did mainly great work, but the results on the pitch are were their fates will be decided.

Maybe I am biased, because I don't like Bobic. Stuttgart fired their coach very very early in the season. They have a young team, just look who played against Werder.

Ulreich 22
Funk 20
Niedermeier 24
Gebhart 21
Träsch 23
Gentner 25
Marica 25
Kuzmanovic 23
Harnik 23

plus some older players. They won 7:0 and 6:0 this season already.

Let's see whether they'll stay with Keller or get somebody new.

IMHO, he should have proposed that for the next Castor transport, they should forego the cops and just let the train smash into the retards blocking the track, that would cost less, and likely reduce the monthly Hartz IV bill of the state by a 7-digit sum...

No doubt. What do they complain? The are "unkündbar", have private health insurance (while people in the free economy are forced in the state health insurance), and can let out their aggressions without being punished. Behave bad and complain afterwards, that's the police in Germany.

I was really happy when I got a civil service job in the emergency room in the hospital next to the Ruhrstadion. During my 15 months there, I met almost every player of the VfL Bochum, not to mention that we got free tickets for almost every home game and merchandising stuff like jerseys, scarfs, etc.

I also have to say that Ordner in all Bundesliga stadiums are very nice people despite they work way harder than the police. They are always in a good mood, making fun with the fans or giving you useful tips like: "Either you drink you beer right now or you go over there to get a plastic cup, then you can pour your beer into it, throw the glas bottle away and I can let you in with the beer".

I once stood on the track near the sideline and caught a ball that flew off the field. Before that I told another ordner that I would make an Abstoss out of the hand into the ranks if I caught a ball. Well, but I guess I didn't, I wanted to keep that job.

Speaking of going mad. I consider myself to be a calm person and I often can't understand how people can go so mad about football.

I am a very calm person myself in every situation of life but not during a football game that ivolves the BVB.

I threw a cup half full of beer into a group of Cologne fans on the main tribune of the Rheinenergiestadion when Grosskreutz made the victory perfect last January. Almost the same some weeks ago when Toni da Silver made the 1:1 vs. Hoffenheim, I went down some stairs of the VIP tribune to point my finger at some Hoffe fans and laughed them in the face.

My girlfriend is pretty often ashamed when I behave like that in the stadium.

Me too, Before the game it is ok, after the game it is ok, but during the game sometimes it really goes to 150% adrenalin. I don´t know why, but that is how it is. When we beat Aston Villa this season to qualify I was close of going mad. It only helps to scream it out and to behave like crazy.

That is what I hate about the Olympiastadion. It is a beautiful stadium with an unique architecture but the "Tartanbahn" (what's that in English?) is annoying for the football watching visitor. Too bad that Hertha/Berlin/Sponsors don't have enough money to build a new Hertha stadium just for football games. A modern and pure football stadium with a few seats less would suit Hertha perfect!

They shouldn't suspend him. For what he's done, he should be fired, or get sent to the zweite Mannschaft and then get sold in the Winterpause.

Why the Bundeskanzleramt? Why not at the HQ of the Greens? After all, they along with the SPD are responsible for these Castor transports to begin with, not that they'd remember that nowadays.

Here's a compromise: Put a Castor at the HQ of the Grüne, one at the Bundeskanzleramt and the home of Guido Westerwelle and Norbert Röttgen, and one at the party HQ of the Linkspartei as an extra (for the pollution they did when they were still the SED during the times of the DDR).

This just got me to think: If I have the chance, and a Saturday off, why not combine that with going to watch Hertha BSC at the Olympiastadion? Einfach aus Jux. I mean, I already visited the Olympiastadion once, and since it's hardly ever full (except when it's Pokalfinale or when Germany is playing), it should be easy to get a ticket.

^^ A picture I took of the inside of the Olympiastadion, looking from the Ostkurve to the Marathontor.

Yes, that is really bad. Around 250 millions were wasted before the world cup to make the Olympiastadion better. I think they should have spent 10 millions to make it a historical site and spent 230 millions (or way less) on a new stadium with 60,000 seats.

At Twente we have of course known for some time about the difficult character of Arnautovic and most of the fans were understandably happy that Werder took him off our hands for a nice sum of money. He unquestionably has a lot of talent and ability but he believes he is God's gift to football and unless he drastically changes his attitude he will fail wherever he goes. If not even a dose of good old fashion German Disziplin can straighten him out I'm not optimistic about his future.

Easily. For comparison, the Asi-Arena in Gesindelkirchen cost around 200 million for 54.000 seats, and that includes an expensive electric roof and the electric lawn mover.

On the cheap side, turning the Volksparkstadion into the AOL Arena (now Imtech Arena, formerly HSH Super-Korruptionsbank) cost less than 70 million.

Or, on the expensive side, the Allianz Arena, which cost 365 million, mostly due to the complicated Folienkissen-Fassade (whatever the hell THAT translates to).

Not that it's surprising though, trying to modernise anything considered "historical" will usually end up very costly, mostly due to permissions and stuff.

Maybe Berlin should have closed Tempelhof earlier and built a new stadium there, at least that way the Tempelhof field would still be used for something useful

I've looked at some youtube-videos of his goals for Twente. He didn't make that many, and some of them were very easy prey. Compare him to Suárez, who is hardly two years older, and you see that Arnautovic has a nice name and some talent, but he still needs to develop a lot.

I'm about to give up on the Tipspiel, the Bundesliga continues to be ridiculous.
Gladbach winning 4:0 against Köln? Seriously?
Stuttgart was leading 3:0 and only managed a 3:3 against Lautern? Seriously?
Wolfsburg was leading 2:0 against Scheiße 04 and only managed a draw? Admittedly, the 2:2 by HANDtelaar was a clear irregular goal, but still.

Guess I should change my prediction for Bayern's game from a victory to a 2:3 loss against Nürnberg after leading 2:0 as well...
