Monchengladbach will be very similar to Newcastle in that they are a one club city. Just had a quick look and they have a population of around 255,000. The German clubs have big followings, but unlike the English, they have a much more respectable pricing structure meaning that they spend far less on match tickets.

Something that did surprise me was that they took 8,000+ to Rome. very impressive, and I also saw that some of their fans were stabbed. I wonder why the German's aren't put off by Rome like the English fans are? Are we treated far worse over there or not? Doubt any English club would take 8,000+ to Rome these days unless it was a Semi Final.

They are just better than us at following their club, mate.
 
Agreed, wouldn't bother with anywhere in Italy for a football game, just not worth the hassle. Germany - now that is a different matter, they just seem to have everything boxed off for football fans, can't fail to have a great time.
We're stopping in cologne to break up the journey to Bern, can't wait
 


yes they are. but for the lower leagues english fans are the best. and for the premier league...you are all seated against your will, can't drink a beer while watching the game and the prices for a game is so high the average worker can't afford it. there is not much noise to expect. i used to like the english support, but nowadays every stand is singing the same old songs 2-3 times a game...it's boring and without passion.

sorry guys, the old days are over
Fair enough comment for most matches. But I'd still rather have a Goodison 'bearpit' when it does get riled up than a shirtless fat neo-Nazi 'capo' bellowing through a megaphone to his followers about what to sing for 90 minutes. (Not referring to Bern with bears or neo-Nazis, by the way.)
