1. und 2. Bundesliga Fussball Deutschland

[Supafly]

This thread explains itself, I think We are talking everything about te REAL Football - Soccer, in Germany's first and second league.

For fellow german members, I use the "Kicker" homepage a lot, but feel free to share your favorite online ressources

I am a Fussball fan, just nota fan, if you talk about the fanatic kind, of any particular team anymore. I favor northern teams, as I live in Schleswig-Holstein

Right now., the HSV plays Cologne, and I hope the Hamburg teams climbs out of that cellar.

Been a Kaiserslautern fan since the mid-80s. Of course, they waited til I was stateside to win it all. And now they are a .500 team in 2.

I am quite fond of them, too. They used to have a reputation not unlike your Raiders.

There was a soccer saying: "Dä Tischlä tischläht seine Sähg, den Inhalt gibts am Bätzebersch." (The arpenter makes his coffins, the content you get at the Stadium on the Betzegerg (The Kaiserslautern Stadium))

Would be great if they get back in better waters some time soon

Sadly, the Hamburg Sport Verein (The only< first soccer league club in Germany that NEVER dropped out of the Bundesliga) follows its own bad, bad streak, the one they are on in their fourth year or so. And they have devoted fans and sponsors with deep pockets. They just seem to be jynxed.)

German football is great to watch!

The FC Kaiserslautern is getting back on track! Today its third win in a row, with no goals taken

Sadly, Hamburg continues to sink. Okay, they are already 18., so technically, they can't sink until the 34. game day is done, today is the 10th, but I guess you know what I mean

From outside it looks they work really good in Germany. Great competition, still competing with the English money.
I like the style of the German clubs in the European competitions, especially when I saw Dortmund on Tv.

About 2. Bundesliga I cannot say much, but of course I know Hsv & Kaiserlautern (from name). It's a shame such "Traditionsvereine" aren't in the highest national league... But that's only the board to blame, just guessing.

The Bundesliga is insane this season! For the first time, the newbie RB Leipzig - a controversial club heavily pished by Red Bull - who climbed from third league to the 1st pretty much in a single run, and is one of the rookie clubs this season, is leading, even putting the allmighty Fc Bayern München to #2. Damn!

And FC Köln (Cologne) is still on #4. That is a region this club has not been in for years and years.

But now back to our critical patient, the Hamburger Sportverein. They may have made a turnaround, managing a 2:2 in their game at the weekend, and come next saturday, there is a classic match, SV Werder Bremen comes to Hamburg, who just now is on #16 (HSV is still on #18, last place)

The main architect of the sustained success of the FC Bayern München, Uli Hoeness, after having served a prison sentence, is about to get back on the job - much needed, as the FCB is suffering a very weak phase atm!

Bayern welcome back beloved Ex-con Hoeness

Uli Hoeness will complete his redemption on Friday when re-elected president of Bayern Munich having served out his tax evasion jail term earlier this year.
The 64-year-old who in his playing days won three European Cups with Bayern plus the World Cup and European Championships with West Germany was released in February from Landsberg prison, where Adolf Hitler wrote ‘Mein Kampf’.

He had served half of the three and a half year sentence he received in March 2014 on seven counts of tax evasion totalling 28 million euros ($29.7m).

Despite his criminal record, Bayern are ready to welcome back the man whose management skills played a key role in making them Germany’s top club in the past 30 years.

While a return to power in nearly any other walk of life would be unthinkable, Hoeness is set for a hero’s welcome when FC Bayern Munich’s members vote for a new president during Friday’s annual general meeting.

The 64-year-old — as the only candidate — is set to be re-elected 987 days after resigning when he boldly declared “it’s not over!”

I don't know what the secret of coach Ralf Rangnick is but he has a damn impressive track record of achievements thus far.

I'm not a fan of any particular German team, but I'm hoping Red Bull Leipzig go all the way this year. It would be nice to see someone else win it for a change instead of Bayern all the time. There also is the young Scottish lad called Oliver Burke who plays for Red Bull, who I hope has a great season there as well.

 

[Supafly]

Our wishes seem to get heard! Leipzig keeps rolling, knocking down Freiburg - in Friburg - 4 to 1.

FC Bayern can only step along, not pull up, as the difference before their game against Leverkusen is 6 points (Okay, right now, the game is almost through, and it's 2:1 for München)

Hamburg ended their derby versus Bremen 2:2, like they did the weekend before. Looking at it positively, they seemed to get a grip on their game and are beginning to work as a team again. But they are still WAY back at the last place of the roster. Like the other team from Hamburg, the FC St. Pauli

I hope so too

Leipzig lost its first gam yesterday, so now they are on the same level, rgarding points, as Munich. Munich just leads the Bundesliga, because they have a better goal difference

Hamburg won another game, and is up at place # 16. New hope for the many fans who have had 3 years of torture behind them, always seeing their club sliding down to the point where they have to fight to not drop out of premie league.
