trago 6 Posted March 6, 2017 So it's all professional teams must have this rule in place. And with the exception of Rb this means all clubs have members which make up 51% of the ruling body?? How does that work at Munich then, does everyone just go along happily with what the club want?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are annual members' meetings where every member has a right to vote for certain things (e.g. a new Chairman). Just now, Ubuntu said: ..and how does one join this membership? Red Bull?

Tommy 5,132 Posted March 6, 2017 Usually there's a way to apply on the clubs' homepage. Like BVB here: https://www.bvb.de/Der-BVB/Mitgliedschaft/Mitglied-werden Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eco 2,117 Posted March 6, 2017 I would imagine BvB have one of the more expensive ones, any idea on how much Dusseldorf's costs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So BVB is still relatively cheap. Just found a list of the membership costs of all Bundesliga teams. But it's a fucking slideshow, so I'll write it here manually: Anually: VfL Wolfsburg: 30 € + 15 € admission fee Bayer Leverkusen: 35 € SC Freiburg: 40 € Hamburger SV: 48 € + 15 € admission fee Schalke 04: 50 € + 5 € admission fee TSG Hoffenheim: 55 € FC Ingolstadt: 60 € FC Bayern München: 60 € + 3 € admission fee Borussia Mönchengladbach: 60 € + 5 € admission fee Borussia Dortmund: 62 € Eintracht Frankfurt: 76 € + 20 € admission fee FSV Mainz: 78 € Hertha BSC: 84 € FC Augsburg: 92 € 1. FC Köln: 92 € SV Darmstadt: 98 € RB Leipzig: 100 € (There's no legit club membership at Red Bull. The money will be used to support RB's youth teams) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A Bayern fan would be able to give you a better answer, but I think that the simplest answer is the fact that Müller has always been a very unconventional player; quite limited in terms of technique and skill, relying mostly on his hard work, instincts and his ability to be at the right place at the right time instead. Mix that with a dip in form, high competition at Bayern, and not being played in the most suitable position, and it's a sort of a wicked circle for a player, I suppose. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eco 2,117 Posted March 15, 2017 What would happen, if anything different, is a team like Werder Bremen II makes it to the Bundesliga, when Werder Bremen are also in there? Doubt it'll ever happen, but not sure? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doubt it'll ever happen, but not sure? It's impossible, as according to the rules, 1) two teams of the same club are not allowed to take part in the same competition; 2) reserve teams are only allowed to play in the 3. Liga or below, as long as the first team plays in the 1. or 2. Bundesliga Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or if our first team happened to get relegated to the 2. Bundesliga and then to the 3. Liga the following year, our reserves would be automatically relegated to the Regionalliga. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
