Somebody sneezed.

Frankly, you shouldn't get ANY vaccine if you're feeling unwell. Can you possibly buy and do a rapid test tomorrow before you intend to go to the centre? And just for your peace of mind, the chance of getting covid if something sneezes in your general direction when you're out isn't very high:) so unless you spent a significant amount of time in crowded places without a mask in the last few days, I wouldn't worry too much...

Inserting smileys doesn't work either.

I couldn't post here for like 10 minutes, then it suddenly went through...

I can't post in here anymore, either. Fucking hell.

And I just tried to copy your text (not quote), and post it, and it also won't let me .

Nevermind - just tried to copy a twitter link, and have the same issue of a post not going through.

Mobile works fine for me.

I honestly doubt it... From those three, I think only Bittencourt is set to stay, and that's just because his knee injury. Toprak might stay or go to Turkey, I think. I can't really see Maxi Eggestein staying, considering he just recently changed his agent in order to attract more attention from foreign clubs. After all, we also sold our captain in the middle of the season last time... Also, the captain and vice captains were not chosen by the manager this time, but by the team instead; it's the first time it happened in Bremen! So I think it was just the case of the team voting for those with most experience, leadership skills and highest respect levels within the squad.

We're back!

And now this was announced today:

Wasn't sure where to post this, but this is such a powerful monument...

Found this from Kicker today - a list of 18 clubs with most members. 8 of them are in the 2. Liga this season. It's also good to see that the clubs that have been struggling and/or got relegated in recent years could not only hold their membership members, but actually even increase them. Union membership figures rose most significantly - around 8000 more in two years in 1. Bundesliga.

That's very kind of them. It's always great to see the community get together and help each other in crisis.

Baumann said to expect 15-20 more transfers to happen before the transfer window closes most of them will be players leaving; the majority probably being players from reserve/youth team, but quite a few first team players are still expected to be sold. Augustinsson, M. Eggestein, Veljkovic, Friedl, Osako, Sargent, Jojo Eggestein, Toprak are all hot transfer candidates. The squad will likely look very different in 2 months time, and I'm afraid that it will bring a lot of uncertainty. That's not a good situation to be in, going into a new season, and not being sure who stays and who leaves. But hopefully we'll be off for a good start with all these players, at least...

Toprak is the new captain, Maxi Eggestein and Leo Bittencourt have been named vice-captains. Those three + Groß and Füllkrug will be the team council.

Legend!

Bittencourt is out for a few weeks with a knee injury, so we're now desperately looking for wingers. First match is in less than 5 days, our new system is heavily reliant on strong wingers, and we barely have any left

There's a sort of friendship developing between the two countries, it seems. Taiwan donated 100.000 masks to us last year, we reciprocated with the vaccines now, and then hundreds of Taiwanese made small financial donations to some non-profits in Lithuania as a gesture of thanks.

The sleeves are awful. Would have been nice if the colours matched. I prefer the away one, love minimalist clean kits.

I mean, it IS not a big deal. It's literally just some dude pouring a few drops of water on their heads. I'm a bit perplexed that getting baptized means better chances for them to get into a specific private school. How come? A Christian school, I take it?

Thoughts?

And 2. Bundesliga starts in 8 days!

The world is truly going crazy

I haven't read A Brief History of Seven Killings, in fact, I haven't even heard of its existence Bob Marley had a huge influence on me growing up, so I'd love to check it out!
