Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted April 20, 2022 Subscriber Posted April 20, 2022 Apparently the DFB has partnered with Amazon to release a docu type series like the Bayern one following the national team going into Qatar. Colour me intrigued, I know im Bias but I loved the Bayern doc. Apparently its the same camera crew that filmed the Bayern one as well. Quote
Faithcore Posted April 21, 2022 Posted April 21, 2022 That sounds good, but since i won't be watching any of the world cup games I certainly won't be watching a documentary about it either. I won't support this whole crap in Qatar and quite honestly under all those circumstances nothing could interest me less than this winter event. 3 Quote

Rucksackfranzose Posted April 23, 2022 Posted April 23, 2022 (edited) This article is in German and a long read (3 pages), still mesmerizing and well-writen. Also it's posted posted because my pet peeve (investors) are concerned. Seem to remember to have heard about this documentation project, didn't know what happened to it until I read this article. http://11freunde.de/artikel/all-or-nothing-beziehungsweise-nothing/5783105 Edited April 23, 2022 by Rucksackfranzose 2 1 Quote

I didn't know anything about the documentary project, but I am also not surprised with the outcome. Yet another reminder of what to expect when a club prostitutes itself to the highest bidder with no regard to the long-term consequences. 1 Quote

But yea, great article! Windhorst sounds like a slimy cunt through and through. No wonder he made his first statements after a long time at BILD TV. Quote

My 2nd theory was that it's "gekostet" in fränkisch dialect, but that made no sense in relation to Hertha. 1 Quote
Subscriber Coma+ Posted April 24, 2022 Subscriber Posted April 24, 2022 What I'll say is that Hicken's work is fantastic. Take Us Home was a brilliant piece of work that not only pulled from Leeds the club but also Leeds the community. It's not surprising that Windhorst has vetoed the work. He's come off like a right prick in the media so why would the documentary show anything different. Shame that the work will likely never see the light of day. Quote

Lots of speculation that he'll come back to Germany. I would think that there will be some opportunities for him...*cough* Gladbach *cough*. Didn't see that one coming. Quote

I seem to recall hearing that he was going to Benfica not long after I posted that. I'm surprised because that feels like a sideways move. Also, the latest talk on Adi Hütter seems to be that he will get at least another year in Gladbach. I would've thought Wolfsburg or Hertha, maybe even Schalke if they were promoted would have been options. 1 Quote
Rucksackfranzose Posted May 24, 2022 Posted May 24, 2022 (edited) Flick, who as a national team manager is obliged to be neutral regarding German club football results, mentioned he would have pleased if Freiburg won the cup on a manager congress. Looking forward to the in´dignation storm in a tea cup, I expect. Edited May 24, 2022 by Rucksackfranzose 1 2 Quote
Rucksackfranzose Posted May 28, 2022 Posted May 28, 2022 (edited) Although Windhorst invested 374M Euro since 2019, Hertha made a loss of 53.5M in 19/20, a loss of 77.9 M - the biggest in the league- in 20/21 and calculate with a loss of 60M for last season. I'm honestly perplexed they even consider building an expensive new stadium instead of trying to limit their losses for a change. Edited May 28, 2022 by Rucksackfranzose 1 2 Quote

You can't translate it because it involves a grammatical particularity of the Berlin dialect, therefore it's only funny when heard in German, in my honest opinion. Shame, because it's classic. 1 Quote
