I would have added this to the Bundesliga 2 thread but that wouldn't be technically correct.
For those who may not be aware, BBC iPlayer/online are showing the Friday night Bundesliga game all season
I’ve learnt that Bundesliga refs speak in English to the captains before the game.
St Pauli deserving their 1-0 half time lead. Leicester score early on against Birmingham.
I read a number of years ago that the language used amongst themselves in the Belgium national team set-up was English due to the French/Flemish language divide.
As for tomorrow's game, I'm in Copenhagen right now, getting a flight to Amsterdam early morning, changing planes in Amsterdam, bring collected at Bristol by my good lady, being deposited at a nearby village where I parked my car and then heading to Cardiff for the game.
Had Greenland not been closed to air traffic this week, I would have been starting off my journey to the CCS with an extra five hour flight this evening to Copenhagen from Nuuk.
I had been here before and I took the opportunity to go to Malmö (and I had been there before too but before the incredible Ølesund tunnel/Bridge had been built.
I also popped up to Helsingborg yesterday and return to Denmark via ferry to the charming town of Helsingør (or Elsinore if you are a Shakespeare aficionado).
I'll have another crack at visiting Greenland once the security problems are ironed out.
Watched a lot of the Hamburg derby and was impressed by St Pauli who seemed pretty comfortable all night to me - also saw bits of Leicester v Birmingham and was struck by how ordinary the latter looked - will their defeat spark a spending spree over the weekend?
