    I'm guessing. I had some smug Bayern fans next to me during our last humiliation. I got a bit cross.

    Germans were the largest immigrant group in the mid 19th century, I read recently. That would have been my ancestor.

Not a peep out of them as they politely took their allocated seats and slithered gracefully off into the night.

    Whereas the Galatsaray fans chucked flares at us.
    A Bayern Munich fan celebrating a win over Arsenal would be like us celebrating winning the Carling Cup.

    I'm surprised the name survived tbh. Many of the Kraut-descendants in East London had to change their surnames during WW1 to avoid getting their heads kicked in.

    They're a miserable ****ing lot though. I'll often get the train home in the opposite direction from their hordes of fans. Even after a comfortable win they'll be as sullen as ****. Actually got on the train with them once after they beat Hamburg 7-0. Only lad smiling on the entire carriage was a Hamburg fan

    It's not obviously German, though. Just a bit foreign.

    When English teams play in Europe the fans usually gather in the a city square type.

    Where to the foreign fans meet when they come to London? Trafalgar square? if so bad choice there isn't any streetside cafes with crap chairs to fling about or stabby fellas on mopeds.

    The stabby fellas are down the road outside Buckingham Palace.

    Though having lost two of the damn things in the last decade I would be quite pleased if we actually won it next time we get to the final.
