The Neverending German Football Quiz

[Faithcore]

Did someone know the answer to #7? 

Happy my (educated ) guess for #2 was correct. Makes up for the point I missed with answering Thurk went to Union Berlin although I remembered seconds after sending my answers that it was actually Cottbus.

Fuck, I could have known the Van der Vaart and Cottbus one. 

I also forgot about Van der Vaart. And probably should have remembered that it was Rehhagel with the bulletproof vest as it wasn't too long ago that I read Ewald Lienen's book.

Yep! @Spike got 2 pts for both the player and the team, while @Stan got the player right (1 pt). I think it's obvious who are either Australian or are watching A-League and who are not

Ill be honest I guessed on every single question  except for #9 of course... that was fact.

Think everyone deserves to know the actual real answer to #9...

9. Name the manager who once had to wear a bulletproof vest during the match due to the threats he received prior to the game. Bonus point for naming the reason for the threats against him (2 pt) Bruno Labbadia, fans where jelous of him being ridiculously good looking

I think it's a pretty good read with some interesting stories and I also like the fact that he wrote it all by himself.

I'm coming in for your arse @McAzeem

I could still kick myself for not getting the Cottbus one. I remember even watching and hearing about it on Sportschau.

It was the last A-League game I watched as well so picked one of those managers. Lucky coincidence!
