Has partly to do, with the different concepts of nations that apply for those countries: while the UK, was an entity since 1707 and included the most if not all English speaking people, and therefore defined nation as a group of people living in the same state, there were quite qa lot of different states ruling over persons of German language and culture, therefore the German concept orientated on those two criteria rather than the country they lived in. ---this lingers down til today. Also Germany losing land after both World Wars and the aftermath of people, who were born in those parts fleeing to one of the two to three remaining German states made an approach different to the British one inevitable.

@Pyfish Shouldn't @Lucas be on 40 points, since he decided to transfer to an unoccupied team and this does cost 5 points?

That's two 3.Liga managers at the same day, since Ingolstadt sacked Rehm, as well.

Frankfurt are apparentely interested in signing Philipp Max from PSV.

After Empoli drew with them I'd like to switch to Torino, please.

Hertha sacked their sports director Fredi Bobic after losing to Union. Bemused, I'd rather expected they would sack Sandro Schwarz. On the other hand Bobic said after the match he wouldn't give Schwarz the sack, maybe that's the reason why he's gone.

If Frankfurt win tonight, it would be fairly cuddly at the top- with 5 teams possibly 6, if Dortmund also win tomorrow separated by 2 or less points. Come on, do it Frankfurt.
