The other day i was browsing results around Europe and noticed that Kaiserslautern were now in the third tier of German football !. After a quick look at why , the familiar themes of financial mismanagement , overpaid players and persistant poor decisions by the board and managers were a few of many reasons . They still have crowds in the early twenty thousands and have a hardcore of support who will attend thick or thin ! . Are they the German 'Wednesday' as it has been a similar downfall from the dizzying heights of that unforgettable night in 1992 ? Personall I always cherish being part of the atmosphere in the stadium in Germany in the 1st leg. Wow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckwheat Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 27000 at Hillsborough. The game in Kaiserslautern one of the scariest games I've been too. Their supporters were totally intimidating before, during and after the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prutton Away Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 On 22/08/2021 at 21:47, Prutton Away said: I was at both the home and away matches versus the Kiaserslautern Olympic diving team and some 28 odd years later it is with some bizarre twist of fate that I am currently in transit back, to take up a new job in a small town just outside the said kings river. Thus I was wondering if I should adopt them in some some way as my new 'team'. Thankfully the thought passed within half a second when I remembered they play in red and white and are a bunch of cheating bar stewards. No further comparisons to be made thank you. I have arrived 20 minutes down the road from KL and this greeted me. (Circled is his Red Devil tat) Neil please delete the thread and no one need suffer the memory of this filthy team again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some quality in the competition back then. Wish they'd do away with the Europa League and this new Conference League and go back to the old UEFA Cup competition.

Eastern Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I saw a World Cup game at their stadium in 2006. Paraguay v Trinidad and Tobago. Thought Kaiserslautern was quite a nice town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
