Ross. Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 . Thanks for that, didn't realise it went back that far. Very interesting concept or the North German blazers just didn't like green. Typical ***s.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Brightside Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Ilkay Gündogan dislocated his kneecap in training and is going to miss the Euros. Feel really bad for the guy as that's the World Cup and now the Euros he's missed. I wonder if it will scupper a potential move to City? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
German Jag Posted May 7, 2016 Author Share Posted May 7, 2016 (edited) . Thanks for that, didn't realise it went back that far. Very interesting concept or the North German blazers just didn't like green. Double checked this with a friend at the game today. Wasn't the league they were in at the time that were assigning the colours, but the local Hannover council dept. responsible for Sport Clubs/Swimming Baths!

German Jag Posted May 7, 2016 Author Share Posted May 7, 2016 H96 finished their set of home games with a 1-0 win against Hoffenheim at a very sunny & relatively warm (24oC) Niedersachsen Stadion/HDI Arena. (Just 10 days ago there was snow in the region). Not the best of games, with a lot of long/hoof balls going nowhere. Goal for Hannover came on the half hour mark courtesy of Japanese international Kiyotake. Elsewhere, Dortmund losing in Frankfurt hands Bayern the title. Not yet had a chance to watch highlights, but supposedly 1 or 2 contentious decisions during the game. Relegation/play-off spot now concerns just Frankfurt, Bremen & Stuttgart (H96 already long gone), with Bremen hosting Frankfurt and Stuttgart away to Wolfsburg next Saturday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuctifano Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 In the 2nd tier- Freiburg confirmed as champions, Red Bull promoted to the Bundesliga (boooooo), Nuremberg in the promotion playoff, and barring a large GD swing bringing Dusseldorf into it, the 2 relegated clubs and the playoff team will be Duisburg, FSV Frankfurt, and Paderborn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumigoo Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 1860 manage to steer themselves clear of relegation meaning that I fall just short of a treble United, Forfar and 1860 relegation this year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Brightside Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 That's Hummels officially signing for Bayern then. They've also announced the signing of Renato Sanches from Benfica. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominique Malonga Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Dortmund fans must be gutted losing their best players to Bayern. Think it's a good move for Hummels though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Brightside Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 It's a better move for Germany, having your two best CBs playing together regularly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy with Freiburg going up. Just hope that they aren't too difficult to get tickets for, given the stadium is relatively small. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going by this, Freiburg attendances, you might be struggling. Not been myself to a game in Freiburg, so don't know if they operate a "Gäste Kasse" on match days. If they do, then you'll be able to get an away-end ticket for some games, eg Wolfsburg, on the day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil1870 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Woeful match but particularly from FCN, only pushed forward when Frankfurt scored. Looked capable of troubling them in the last twenty minutes so no idea why they tried to be so negative? Theres negative and then how they played. Frankfurt will need to strengthen in the summer as well mind, not a lot of quality in that squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judge Jules Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Bit of a random question here, how are Arminia Bielefeld doing these days ? They were my local team when i stayed in Germany as a wean but my dad always told me he would never go watch them cause their fans were f**king nuts. He supported Gladbach instead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuctifano Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Bottom half of 2nd division in the season just finished, they are one of Germany's yo-yo / elevator clubs who have had an incredible amount of promotions and relegations from 1st to 3rd tier in a short space of time. Duisburg's late revival seems to have been in vain as they're 3-1 down with 45 minutes of the second leg to play and need 3 goals without conceding. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
