Now dependant on the Warning-Level in Lower Saxony is either 5.000 or 10.000. Since there's no guarantee as to what level will be in place come Saturday, then H96 cancelled the 10.000 tickets which had been sold for the game on Saturday against Werder Bremen. Means a mad rush to get one of the 5.000 tickets tomorrow. Have already had to cancel a video-conference. Its fucking brutal to watch man. The only game with a decent crowd since the weekend just there that I watched in Germany was Köln-Augsburg, but it still managed to be up there with one of the worst games I’ve seen this season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_Veitch Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Dortmund fully in mid season slump mode now after losing to Hertha Berlin. Will Haaland leave in January or will Dortmund manage to hold out until the summer? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the Dortmund-Fürth game on the background of County-Celtic and tbh Fürth didn’t do too badly, other than a Haaland pen they pretty much contained Dortmund right until the last minute. Florian Kohfeldt is in a tough situation with Wolfsburg too. Wolfsburg took a chance on him after leaving Werder Bremen in a shambles, and they’ve well and truly fucked it. Seven games without a win and they play Bayern next before the break. Could see themselves in a relegation scrap. The football Wolfsburg are playing is atrocious. Nearly sent me to sleep against Stuttgart and couldn’t handle with Köln’s attack at all this midweek, if Modeste didn’t miss two sitters it’d have been 5-2 Kohfeldt was considered a joke of an appointment, right from the start. He got lucky by winning his 1st two games, but 4th spot in their CL group plus an ever more precarious drop down the BL will set some alarm bells ringing with the senior folks at Wolfsburg. Their 1st game after the winter break is away to Bochum. Mönchengladbach are also on a horrendous run of form. On 16/12/2021 at 01:21, candycelt said: Its fucking brutal to watch man.

From a percentage capacity point of view then the 8.700 in Kiel would have been the largest. In some places it's been 750 fans, which I can't see the point in allowing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
German Jag Posted December 20, 2021 Author Share Posted December 20, 2021 1st set of return round fixtures in the top 2 leagues last weekend. H96's brief winning 'sequence' following Christoph Dabrowski's appointment came to an abrupt end with a 4-1 defeat at home to Werder Bremen. Bremen well worth the 3 points, although 4-1 wasn't fully representative. Result leaves H96 3 points in front of the relegation play-off spot. Winter break in the BL2 through to the 14th January, when H96 are away to Hansa Rostock on the Friday night. Thereafter is DFB-Pokal, with H96 hosting Borussia Mönchengladbach. 5.000 fans in attendance, which in a 49.000 capacity stadium is a fairly shite experience. A Lockdown "Light" is likely to be announced tomorrow for Germany, so presumably closed-door games for the 1st 2 months in 2022. Ich wünsche allen einen frohe Weihnachten und einen guten Rutsch ins neue Jahr. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigGuy Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Hi folks, First time viewer of this thread. It is concerning what BVB will do post Haaland not only to replace him but the rubble behind him (defense). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theroadlesstravelled Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Augsburg sign Pepi from FC Dallas for $20m plus add ons. I thought he’d join a bigger club but he’ll get regular football and it’ll be a good test for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gianfranco Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 I don’t know if it is or not but Augsburg spending that kind of money seems weird. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accies1 Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 It is strange, been following Augsburg for years now and I've never known them to spend money like that. Especially on what is a bit of an unknown quantity. However the signing policy over the past couple of years has been all about getting in young talented players like Udoukai, Wintter, Dorsch, Maier and now Pepi. It's pretty exciting times at the WWK I think, hopefully back to challenging for Europe again next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven W Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Watched Gladbach best Bayern 2-1 in the Allianz Arena last night. Brilliant game with loads of chances. A pity no fans there to see it though. Another thing, Sky's coverage of the German football is awful. To say its 'half-arsed' is an understatement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive probably mentioned this on this thread before but I used to really enjoy the Friday night German football on BT. Sky's efforts have been lame at best and hardly ever have the Friday night games on live, presumably as they don't want to put it up against their English Championship coverage. The only reason that game was shown live last night was because of the FA Cup this weekend. Makes you wonder why they bought the German football in the first place. It moving to Sky has been a poor move for the punters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That they're only showing a game this afternoon on their app - on a weekend when they are deprived of their Super Sunday pish or even the Scottish football to cover across their roughly 182 sports channels - sums it up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accies1 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 VAR has ended up making the right decision but it's nice to see some awful refereeing outside of Scotland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accies1 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Pepi showed some nice movement in his first start for Augsburg but other than that failed to really show much. Looked a little lightweight and got bullied at times. Early days still and he must have showed something in training to justify being started. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
