Very loud and constant but jeeze is it regulated. Certain songs over and over and you feel that if anybody sings something different they will will be carted off.

Nice stadium with crap tv screens inside. I was with the Schalke Fans for some reason, outside the perspex screens. All friendly and calm.

A policeman told me there was a lot of trouble recently between Schalke and Dortmund fans but they were all very polite and calm before and after the game. They must come out of the woodwork for the Derbies

When I have previously visited Germany they have been excellent but the Hotel was poor and the Bar staff and Cafe for brekkie spoke virtually none. Fortunately my German is wonderful.

Beer, Coffee and pointing with vigour worked perfectly

I actually took both my nephews. 6 foot 5 and 6 foot 3 the pair of them. With me walking between them it was like rugby posts going along the street

Still preferable to sitting next to a table of pissed up Brits who perform regular acts of over laughing and speaking **** with the volume control on 10..
