Some interesting times in Germany recently with ire aimed at the Hoffenheim owner.
Agreed. He’s an artificial, PR machine. Good manager but I doubt there’s much “real” in the persona.
sounds like your talking from experience lol
is that what Kudos/Oceana became (showing my age now!)
No weakest league everHave Liverpool really been that good this season? There's no doubt that the results suggest that they have been the best team but are they really that far ahead of the others in terms of performances? This is a genuine question as I've only seen a few of their games in the whole. The rest I've seen highlights on MOTD or followed live text on BBC. They've certainly been very impressive in some games but in others it seems that they've found a way to win without playing particularly well.
I'm not trying to diminish Liverpool's achievements this season as they will be worthy winners when they do win the title but they seemed to be playing far better last season in the games I watched than when I've seen them this season.

The title is won and the only thing domestically you had to play for was going unbeaten. When you've got something to protect it changes the mentality and I think we've seen that in the last 4-5 games. The only game that matters is Atletico in a few weeks.
Really interesting story. Is this the template for future racist incidents? Would they have played out the game had it been 0-0 or similar?

Classy from Bayern still, at all levels by all accounts.
The banner was about Hoffenheims owner. Most clubs in Germany are owned by the fans, but not Hoffenheim. So they hate the ownership model.
Hoffenheims owner has overseen them climb 5 divisions or so. Fan owned clubs see this as an unwelcome trend.
The translation I read suggested his mother was a lady of the night ?.saw that yesterday LT, apparently Bayern fans held up a banner. It never mentioned what the banner was all about but certainly upset a few.

The tradition of clubs not having a wealthy backer is strong in Germany, something I think we don't quite grasp as we have always had them. Clearly they feel strongly. Not condoning it incidentally.
That's my understanding as well. We have lots of swear words and insults in this country but we don't go for family members as a rule, certainly not the parents. We only do civilised abuse ??Classy from the fans, wasn’t it something along those lines that the Italian defender said to Zinedine Zidane in the World Cup final
