Matt Posted August 16, 2008 Author Share Posted August 16, 2008 Hamburg came from 2-0 down (Schweinsteiger, Podolski - who else?) against Bayern last night in the Friday night match on Setanta, to draw the game 2-2 and share the points in the first Bundesliga game of the season. The rest of the league kick off over the weekend. Eintracht are hoping to carry on some decent form (Pokal 3-0 win at Pfullensdorf and an impressive 1-1 draw with Real Madrid), with a home fixture against Hertha Berlin this Sunday evening. Solid start for the Eagles, should be a home win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest oa_exile Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 should be a home win. Dont give up yer day job to become a pundit Great start for both teams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy_Fent Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Eintract lost 2-0 shame but glad Bayern buggered it up, at times they have to be the jammiest team in the History of Football Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldhamSheridan Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I see Hoffenheim have jumped to the top of the division. It will be interesting to see how they get on. It's a no mark place which has had a former youth player and current multi-billionnaire (698th richest person in the World), Deitmar Hopp, come along and build them up. They've gone from about 7 divisions down in this time into the Bundesliga. Some would say that nothing can come from this, but... There is a rule in German football that a team in the top two divisions cannot be taken over and have someone hold over 49% of the club (to prevent idiots running clubs like at Chelsea, Man Utd, Oldham, etc. I would guess). This means that individuals are unwilling to invest in clubs that, as such, they won't or don't own. However, as Hoffenheim were taken over in division 7, it is perfectly legal (rulewise) to be promoted with that one owner who has already shown is willing to invest. I watch with bated breath...

Tommy_Fent Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 I think I might of been to Hoffenheim drew 2-2 away at Wolfsberg, which is alright I suppose, but need a couple of wins under their belt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldhamSheridan Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Wacker Burghausen 5 - 1 SpVgg Unterhaching. Boo hiss, from 1-0 up as well. Mid-table obscurity again by the looks of things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

help_shiny Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Eintracht live on Setanta1 on the 12th Sept vs Karlsruhe no longer I'm afraid! The game has been called off - they had a Madonna concert there on Tuesday night and it's ruined the pitch. Its being relayed and the game is postponed. I bet the poop is hitting the fan over this, the Friday night TV game cancelled on the day - wonder why it took them so long, they must have known the situation before now.

help_shiny Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 I watched the Dortmund v Schalke derby on Saturday afternoon - awesome entertainment. Going into the 67th minute Schalke were comfortably 3-0 up but contrived to draw 3-3 and be down to 9 men. There should have been at least 5 minutes added time but Schalke had lost their heads and I think the ref thought "sod this" and he blew at bang on 90 minutes just after a double assault by a Schalke player. Great game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

help_shiny Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Bayer Lost away 3:2 to Hamburg on Saturday after leading 2:0 2:0 and they it up ! ahh, I didnt realise that. I saw they were 2-0 up. oops! Schalke are in further hot water as one of their players called the ref a whore twice on tv after the game and another said that it was 9 men against 14. Still, they have a point (2-3 was offside and 3-3 was a verrrry dodgy penalty). I'll certainly be trying to watch the return match later in the season!

Guest oa_exile Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Big game for Eintracht Frankfurt , KO 16:00 at Home v Arminia Bielefeld , really need the points to get out of the bottom three. Games in hand though , only played four. Meanwhile Bayer are a healthy second after 6 games. Bayer Munich ...........slow start played six and only 8 points.

Markoasis Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Watched a highlights programme of last years season whilst in Berlin ...... seems half the goals are scored in this league due to the keepers simply being absolutely rubbish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyGermanLatic Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 (edited) .... Why the hell haven't I seen this thread!? I have lived in Frankfurt for 3 years and supported my whole life! Just gotta say, I saw a man. Bald, wearing glasses and had a grey Frankfurt shirt on if that is anyone ... ? Looking foward to Adler v Hoffenheim. 1899 have got off to a good start this season. It's a shame they don't play OFC in the league anymore, only exciting game (other than Mainz... and Bayern of course!) Any German speakers?
