The Krauts are quite supporter-friendly. A bit like the English Premier League

[Guns 'n' Roses]

only totally opposite.

their only serious rivaAlmost if it is a completely *******s comparison

and a whole bunch of mediocre ones and pump them full of tiger blood so that they play like top top ones. Easy economics.

[Pat Vegas]

They have a reputation of being efficient

but they are all still a bit weird imo

[Guns 'n' Roses]

whereby their low ticket price for the games also include a free ticket on public transportation from all the suburbs. It is almost like they give a signal that a football match should be affordable for everyone. Like it was in England in the 70's and 80's.

but that was of course back when the English managed to produce football players themselves and didn't have to buy the ones the Krauts had produced. :-)

and they'll make more money in the end.

[Berni]

[Luis Anaconda]

They are practically a national team and treated as such for a start. As regards Dortmund - this is the same club that required a loan from Bayern to stay in business a few years back - possibly not the best example to follow from a financial point of view

what we in the oil business refer to as "plateau production" - full stadium every week.

as everyone moans, groans and fecks off early ...its like england at wembley.. or indeed when Arsenal were at wembley.. home games can be far more negative imo

It is sickening to see they are being held up a shining examples of how things should be done.

['Neg]

but I'll need to take a closer looks over the next few weeks :sherlock:

[Guns 'n' Roses]

that only foreign, rich cnuts like myself and Brentwood can afford gong to the games?

Unless those who refuse to support the team stop going, and give up their seats to those that might, then the only difference it will make is less money for players. Perhaps we are cursed with too many really terrible fans who either abuse our players and make them play even worse, or are snobby spastics who despise atmosphere at football matches.
