Thank you, Liverpool
By: Steven |In his most brilliant transfer move yet, Rafa Benitez has taken Philip Degen off of our hands. It’s all part of his “rebuild the team so we can finish higher than fourth place” strategy, and apparently he thinks Degen is capable of providing an “attacking spark” down the flank. I’m a little disappointed that we […]
On Nuremberg, Doll, and Sahin
By: Steven |Jan Koller made his return to the Westfalenstadion tonight after a stint in France with Moncao. Dortmund returned to the Westfalenstadion after a road outing at Eintracht Frankfurt. Neither return was a very happy one.
We needed three points out of this match, as did Nuremberg. It was obvious that both sides would be pushing for […]
Looking to spend
By: Steven |Thanks to their qualification for the UEFA Cup, Dortmund will be bringing in extra money through sponsorships. According to this Westline article, the club will spend “eight figures” in the transfer market ahead of next season. If you’re good at math, you will realize that eight figures could be just short of $100 million (or […]
Pinstripes!
By: Steven |The suffering caused from the awful jerseys of this season can finally be put to an end.
In an official release from the club, Dortmund will be wearing a slick looking new jersey for the 2008-2009 season. The predominant color is yellow (none of this half-and-half crap) with black pinstripes. The club will wear black shorts […]
Juve want Petric; Dortmund eye Bochum encounter
By: Steven |According to Bild, Juventus are preparing to mount a €20million bid for Mladen Petric. In a later report from Tribal Football (which is completely unreliable), the boys from Turin are also mulling the idea of sending Tiago plus cash to Dortmund in return for our striker. No thanks, Juventus.
As for this weekend’s match against Bochum; […]
Dortmund vs. Hamburg: Bushwhacked
By: Steven |Ouch. So that’s what it feels like to be on the other end of a 3-0 drubbing.
HSV’s goal scoring exploits started fast and furious, with José Paolo Guerrero putting them ahead with only seven minutes gone by. Rafael van der Vaart, who I said would be the key man in this match, then made it […]
GolTV Goodness

Know Thy Enemy: Schalke defeated
By: Steven |September 18, 2007. The first day of Champions League action. More specifically, it’s the first day of Group B action. And even more specifically, it’s Schalke’s first match in Group B. The stage is perfectly set. The “German Newcastle” are hosting Spanish side Valencia at the Veltins. It’s the perfect chance for Schalke to […]
It’s about time: Dortmund sponsorship logo complete
By: Steven |Finally, after a long period of waiting, Borussia Dortmund has a permanent (and by permanent, I mean not that yellow exclamation mark) logo for their shirt sponsor. Evonik Industries, formerly known as RAG, have put out a purple colored text on a white background that sit right in the middle of the BVB jersey.
For your […]
Matchday 3: In-game thoughts
By: Steven |* - Well, so far we’ve been dominating things against Cottbus. We’ve had some nice buildups and have found ourselves with some nice chances, but nothing is hitting the back of the net.
* - Alright, now I’m getting a little upset. We’ve been having our way down the right flank but we’re lacking that final […]
