JW Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 have to agree! they are playing very well!What a great finish to the season this year!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xphilx Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 i'm watching. not playing anymore. played for about 10 years but in the end i figured out that teamsports are just nothing for me. i wouldn't consider myself a "fan" but i love watching soccer. i like many teams and i'm always down with teams which play a offensive, high technical, modern way of soccer. and i hope manchester will kick chelsea out of the champions league....

JW Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 where is your hometown? my wife has family in Koblenz. We visited there about 10 years ago. Definitely time to go back again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xphilx Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 my hometown is hanover. the team is hannover 96, they will place 11th or 12th this season. pretty unspectacular but they had a lot of bad luck this year. at least their goal keeper is the goal keeper for the german national team. robert enke, you maybe heard about him..?!

sinisterkungfu Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Never gave a crap about sports, at all, but I am a recent convert. Started watching soccer off and on last summer. Now I catch whatever I can without having to pay for premium channels. They don't show enough on free tv here, aside from the occasional (maybe once a week if we're lucky) Premier League or UEFA match. I still don't really know the rules or understand what's going on most of the time, but it's fun to watch regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JW Posted May 22, 2009 Author Share Posted May 22, 2009 I grew up playing and it remains my favourite sport but it's getting tougher to play now (injuries)I agree about the free TV thing.... we get mainly EPL and usually not the good games either...Won't take too long to get the gist of the rules.. I can't wait to get overseas to see a game in person. Looks like an incredible experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinisterkungfu Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I played when I was 8, but didn't really enjoy it and switched to baseball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
