Dortmund fans before their champions league match tonight on 11:45 - Apr 10 by Clive_Anderson
When did German football become so cool and ours a bag of corporate shite?
Been to a few games now in dortmund and guess they are my second team.
the stadium although old, was rebuilt so what you see here is the new top half on the older bottom half (if you get my meaning).
Their matchday experience is superb, great beer (in view on the pitch), fantastic club shop (you have to see it to believe it as its on 2 floors and fully disabled capable).
20,000 home fans standing on the end terrace
A great match day build up with great ideas , such as the face etc. Heck i was theree 10 days ago for a reserves match against Munster in the old ground (adjacent to their main one) and even that was fantastic with picnic benches to sit and eat food at in the open air whle you watched the match if you wanted.
We could do worse than to send some guys over there to scout the stadium, facilities and P.R. there.

As was Malagas second. Both linos should be shown tv clips and then forced to read the offside law.
The linos were a fúcking disgrace. The one who missed Málaga's 2nd goal being offside also awarded 2 or 3 blatant Málaga throws, one right under his nose, to Dortmund. And the Dortmund winner was offside twice. Firstly from the initial cross 4 Dortmund players are offside, then that clown Santana's on the line and blatantly offiside to poke the ball home at 93'. An absolute sickener What's the point of the 5th officials or whatever they're called?? Shirley they're there mainly as a backup in case the linos miss these types of goings-on? Both times they were perfectly placed to say 'yep, offside, only 1 defender between the attacker and the goal-line'. It does rather smell like the 4 of them don't actually know the rules they're supposed to be implementing...
QPR - "shit but local"

In Germany, it’s all about you, the fan. The 50+1 rule, where a minimum of 51 per cent of the club must be owned by its members, is the basis of this, allowing fans to have a say in how the club is run while still allowing for major outside investment. It’s a model that might not work for all clubs, but does show respect to the fans that keep them running. We were among 80,000 of them at the Westfalenstadion on the Saturday to see Borussia Dortmund face Freiburg, and boy, they let us know about it. At times it was difficult to know what was more impressive: the thrilling display on the pitch, where Robert Lewandowski inspired Dortmund to a 5-1 win, or Europe’s largest standing terrace opposite us. The ‘Yellow Wall’ was a relentless noise machine from an hour before kick-off until after the final whistle - breathtakingly high, fearsomely wide and undoubtedly intimidating, it’s as little as £10 to become one of the wall’s 25,000 bricks. We had paid slightly more than this for our tickets (£25 each), but we still got plenty for our money. For starters, the train journey to the ground from our base in Dusseldorf was included in the price, which is a standard rule across the Bundesliga for games in the same region. Other matchday staples such as beer and snacks came in cheaper too. The choice of sausages and burgers washed down with local brew was an improvement on the generic offerings in England, and was obtained without the hassle of queuing for 20 minutes thanks to Dortmund’s efficient fan card system.
