    ive seen rascism in Germany through "Nazi" symbols, HH, 88
    the Dortmund incident with asamoah happened four years ago
    ofcoarse there are other groups that are also infamous for chants and rascist actions
    France is pretty bad though *Paris St. German*

    Incidents happen from time to time, especially in the east...but I think the Bundesliga and its fans can be proud that it is rarer than in other European leagues.

    I definitely wish there were more books on the history of various Bundesliga clubs such as Schalke as there are for clubs of other leagues.

    written by an English Supporter of FCN

    Thanks. I pretty much thought I would be out of luck book wise when it came to reading about Schalke unless I seriously dust of my Deutsch rust.

    I just wish Schalke as well as other German clubs for that matter would add more to their English sections of their websites. It is no longer an excuse to say they only have German supporters.

    It is pretty cool when there are English supporters offering to help out in that department with various clubs to help with the English sections of the website.

    I definitely like that about this wonderful sport especially at away matches where the team really appreciates everything you give to help them in that match.:)

    Asamoah may no longer cut it as a player but he still does a good job at Schalke. ^^
