Bundesliga is great although my team, 1860, are still treading water in 3 Liga. Whats going on at 1860? Theres a couple of names in Liga 3 that you think shouldn’t be down there. Mind you, no different to English football there. Edited July 28, 2021 by sheffield_dave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groundhopping Owl Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Another German football lover here. Had a season ticket at Chemie Leipzig (fourth tier) season before last, Covid rather wrecked that though. 2. Bundesliga really could be the most compelling league in Europe this season, bonkers the combination of teams they’ve got in there. Anybody still looking for a team to get behind, try Dynamo Dresden, went there about eighteen months ago and couldn’t believe the atmosphere, they’ve basically got a slightly smaller version of the yellow wall. Prediction, since someone asked: 1. Bayern 2. BVB 3. Leverkusen 4. Gladbach 16. Bochum 17. Bielefeld 18. Greuther Fürth 1. Fortuna Düsseldorf 2. Werder Bremen 3. Karlsruhe 16. Hansa Rostock 17. Sandhausen 18. Ingolstadt 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groundhopping Owl Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Already getting the feeling I've overrated Leverkusen, they look a bit of a mess. Also went through there for the first time this week, what a bizarre place. Sort of like Immingham but bigger, a fairly large industrial town with essentially no centre.

It's reassuring in a way that England isn't the only country where the lower divisions end up being a graveyard for big clubs. The likes of HSV and Schalke being in the 2nd division is nuts. This is HSV's 4th year isn't it? They lost to St Pauli (again) last week as well.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that’s right, the entire town was basically built to suit the company’s needs. Of course Leverkusen are smashing everyone to bits, me having called them a mess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEnchanter Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 4 points seperates top to 12th in Bundesliga 2. The traditional powerhouses Schalke, Werder and HSV (for many years now) are struggling to dominate. It's a hard league to call. Always used to love football manager careers with lower league German teams. I once enoyed getting Wormatia Worms to the Bundesliga. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
