    German footy starts again today. Trying to decide which club to follow for my football fix and replace the Bantams. Is there a German big city club that has massively underachived for most of its history that i can support? Particularly want a team who will regularly ruin my Saturday evenings. Thoughts?

    I should go for Hertha Berlin, capital city, olympic stadium, constant under achievers !
    However the Union Berlin story is far, far better.

    Been watching the Dortmund game, Schalke are crap but that doesn't take away the quality of the goals so far.

    Only German team I have ever seen is Borusia Munchengladbach in about 1970 at Lxxds they were not very good. It is my intention to keep it to one.

    Dortmund all the way, massive support, yet always come second to the overhyped popular team from Munich.......they caused me to fall out of love with City for around 12 months, in 2012 I watched Dortmund v Munich on the Sunday, Dortmund wrapped up their last title that night in front of 90,000 mental fans, flew into Southampton on Monday, went to watch City at Aldershot on I think the Tuesday could have been Wednesday. It rained I shivered, That night also cemented my view that Robbie Threlfall was the single worst player to pull on a city shirt.

    Do you think he might be worth mentioning to Stuart?

    I remember seeing FC Twente Enchede at VP.

    I think we won 3-1.

    Remember they had a little bald winger, he was quite amazing.

    I realise they are Dutch but it all counts.

    Apologies to all things PC by the way.

    I'd have to go with Hamburg, went on a weekend break and it is a beautiful city! Took in a Hamburg vs Bayern Munich game, great atmosphere and a cracking stadia too. Would be my luck that I travel all that way to see a 0-0 game though!
