It was an excellent gesture.

The young lad Baumgartz is only 18 and he's been truly chucked into the deep end of a struggling Stuttgart team.

He does have a bit of promise about him (I saw Stuttgart in December) but the whole club is is a godawful mess and look a certainty for relegation to the 2. Bundesliga this season.

If Stuttgart don't win their next match, it shows you happy clappers and optimists have got it wrong - booing all the way to the trophy!

Are they a big club Stuttgart?

EDIT: Checked Wikipedia, see they have won the Championship a few times and other domestic honours. Runners up in the UEFA Cup..

They are a massive club, Die Schwabians have been an almost ever-present in the Bundesliga since its founding in 1963, spending only two seasons outside the top flight.

Their recently refurbished 60,000 seat Mercedes-Benz Arena is also a fantastic stadium too.

Blimey. So a huge fall then!

It would be the equivalent of say, Liverpool getting relegated (much as many of us would enjoy that).

Although the Schwabians are not grief-monkeys like our friends from the north-west.

That is very interesting. I wondered why I didn't know about the Budesliga when I lived in Germany, I left before 1963.

The bundisliga fans are more....nice to there players. If someone did that in our team, ALOT of people will call for his head. I'm sure there will be a few here supporting that forest player, but the majority will be hate.

There's a lot of passion in bundisliga football that I wish we would emulate in our leagues.

No they wouldn't, we are always incredibly supportive of our young players.

The monkey was a French spy. GCHQ had been monitoring his emails for years.

I'm starting to garner a real respect for the Bundesliga and how it's run, they seem light years ahead of our league in some ways. I've seen a few examples like the above video, the fans over there seem to have a much closer relationship with their club compared to the top clubs over here.
Was impressive to see the board and the fans stick right behind Klopp at Dortmund despite them sliding to the bottom of the table as well. A club that size who had the amount of success they had last season, if it was a team over here the fans would have been screaming for his head ages ago, but they didn't and Dortmund are now turning it around, so kudos to them.

True, i can remember in the 80s being amazed how many times italian clubs changed managers, now its the norm here.
