Die Fohlen sind wieder da - Borussia M'gladbach season 2008/2009 thread

[Borussia]

As I won't be online until Tuesday, I'm posting the press-conference for you, Naz (you probably won't understand much, but can enjoy Hans' face at least:-). Viel Spaß!

And here's a more detailed interview with HM in German:

Una bella serata.

Btw: Christian Ziege is no longer our "Sportdirektor".

He'll be the new co-manager of Hans Meyer together with Jürgen Raab (who was HM's co-manager in Nürnberg).

The former Bayern, Bochum, Fürth and BMG defender Max Eberl, who was responsible for our youth department and did a great job there, is replacing Ziege as "Sportdirektor". Good luck, Maxi! :)

Thanks for that info Uwe. I'd heard that Ziege was doing both jobs. I'm glad you cleared that up.

I may not be a BMG fan, but I dig Hans Meyer.

Best of luck guys.

I may not be a BMG fan, but I dig Hans Meyer.


Therefore you once told me that I should not make a fuss about the way how Hans was sacked in Nürnberg...:p ;)



Best of luck guys.


Thanx.

I told you the decision fit the situation. You can bitch all you want about how it was done, it doesn't change that fact that it needed to be done.

What has happened since has been my worst fear. Proof that f#cking clown is interfering again.

[Borussia]

it doesn't change that fact that it needed to be done.


Yep, we've all seen the great result! :-))



@ Naz

Are you still alive?

[HANS-GUNTER BRUNS]

Very much so alive my friend,and also excited to see meyer in a gladbach uniform obviosuly!

Watched the clips and photos...i jsut dont want to get too excited about our up-coming game with KSC,hope meyer can have an immediate impact...i love the guy and his smile:D

[footyfan1]

Yep, we've all seen the great result! :-))




Yeah, that looks good since you conveniently deleted the sentence after that one.

You should be in politics. :rolleyes:

The only thing that matters now is that he does well for BMG.

If he doesn't, you won't care how they get rid of him, will you?? ;)

[HANS-GUNTER BRUNS]

ok uwe

Its official,now we are the sole owner of the bottom of the table!
I hope Mr.Meyer also provides good "climbing-gear" for the fohls..seems like we have a "very long" ways to climb this season..should be interesting and am looking forward to see how we respond under pressure with a solid experienced coach:rolleyes:

Yep, I deleted it conveniently ... since it was redundant for your argumentation.



If he doesn't, you won't care how they get rid of him, will you?? ;)


Of course I will. If they send him to the press-conference for the next game and announce his dismissal via "DSF" and "BILD" just a few minutes later, I'm gonna get very mad!

But we can be sure that this won't happen.



Its official,now we are the sole owner of the bottom of the table!


I'm happy that Eintracht won, because I'm sure that KSC will be easier to catch in the end! A win against them on Saturday is a MUST ... then they'll be only 2 points ahead of us.

Good night.

[HANS-GUNTER BRUNS]

To send a coach to a press-conf and also send his dismissal via "BILD" a few min later... is as low and cheap as it gets,actually it can stand for a world record..wow! i still cant believe this has happened...man they should write about this in the "book of guinness"...Am sure VFL 1900 and those green,black and white colors have way more class than that:D

I think Jean Löring from Fortuna Cologne will stay on top with sacking Toni Schumacher during a half time break. His comment: "Me as the club had to do something!"

Now *there* was a character! And I actually saw them play once at home when I was an exchange student in Cologne (living in the same town (Efferen) as the aforementioned Schumacher, actually, though I never saw him at Kaiser's Supermarket...:D).

[HANS-GUNTER BRUNS]

According to borussia.de---->"Alles an Charakter mobilisieren", Now thats great attitude..and lets hope they can mobilize it on all cylinders !

And meyers face at the press-confress looks like it as well,lets hope it translates on the field 100% this weekend:D

[Borussia]

Dig deep and give 110%

The solution in football is sometimes very simple. “Just simply win a game,” is what his team needs to do, said Hans Meyer at today’s press conference.

Btw: The referee will be Deniz Aytekin from Fürth/Zirndorf (it's only his second 1st league game of this season after "Hertha vs Cottbus")

(I met him during the Nuremberg half-marathon 2 weeks ago)

Let's hope he'll do a good job (I wouldn't mind him sending off 2 guest players again - as he did when we played Kaiserlautern at BP last season:-)


Gute N8
