Me too tbh.

Was checking this thread all day long for his part 2. I like the stories on here. Keep 'em coming guys. Oh, and of course congratulations for the win, deservedly so. Bayern were just too stupid to go all the way and Chelsea played smarter, not better but smarter. And at the end it doesn't matter how you win it.

I'm not surprised that most of you guys had a really good time in Munich and not just because of the win. Bayern fans and German fans in general are very friendly to English football supporters. I remember when Arsenal played Dortmund in the CL this/last season the Dortmund fans even created a welcoming youtube video to the gunners. I found that classy. When Man Utd. played against my club, Schalke 04, in Gelsenkirchen (semi final CL) and they completely trashed us, we still celebrated after the game with Utd. supporters and just enjoyed the getting together.

My English friends and I discussed that a lot lately and they think German football fans wouldn't get such a warm welcome in England. I don't know about that but I just know that Germans are very anglophil. I think we do admire the English/british culture a lot. Especially your attitude of not giving a damn about what others might think of you. I like that since Germans come with a minor inferiority complex (you know why) and we're still looking for getting recognised.

Hope that was not too much off topic.

Schalke rules!    We will win the Bundesliga one of these years, I hope.

Have the Schalke fans gotten over losing Neuer to Bayern?

Yeah, I hope so too. I really like Baseball and I always compare Schalke with Boston. The Red Sox fans had to wait over 80 years to finally celebrate the world series again. So I guess we still have some time to have our hand's on the German title trophy (54 years and counting, oh that's awful). I can't stand it any longer just being runners-up.

Neuer who? Well, that's a sensitive topic for Schalke fans. I am over it but I know many people who wouldn't even dare to speak his name anymore (they just call him the goalkeeper). I find that childish since we got tons of money for him. Plus we really needed that money (huge debts). There's this saying amongst Schalke fans: Keine Schale in der Hand und der Torwart weggerannt, Scheiß egal, wir haben Raúl. Meaning: no dish (German title trophy looks like a dish) in the hand and the goalie ran away , who cares we've got Raúl. And now we don't even have that any longer since Raúl's leaving for Qatar.
