| Looking forward to seeing the 'Gladbach-Leverkusen game today. 'Gladbach looked very good in their 6-1 win against Berne midweek, Raffael and Hazard in particular. Leverkusen have bought/sold a lot over the summer, be interested to see if they can improve this season. |

A very good win for 'Gladbach, think they are going to have a very good season. Wish I could say the same for Schalke, the managed decline continues. |

They've come a long way in 7 years, as Byrne says they will be well funded, they seems to bringing in a lot of young players, Burke for example, Timo Werner,David Selke for example. Think they'll stay up this season Could probably see them competing for CL places in next 2-3 years too. |

| Dieter Hecking sacked by Vfl Wolfsburg. A mighty fall from 18 months ago when Wolfsburg were Bundesliga runners up and German Cup winners. Kevin DeBruyne left but Julian Draxler and Max Kruse were signed and Wolfsburg finished a disappointing 8th. Kruse left this summer and Draxler badly wanted out, hard to believe that the VW crisis last winter has not played a part in Vfl Wolfburg's rapid decline. |

Very good 1st half in the 'Gladbach-1FC Koeln derby game, lovely one and two touch football by 'Gladbach, Andre Schubert has done a great coaching job there. Raffael and Hazard improving on their match fitness, I expect 'Gladbach to give Man City a good game midweek. Koeln relying on Modeste to snatch a goal, would not be surprised to see them finish with 10 or even 9 players the way they have been hacking in the 1st half. Great atmosphere as always at Borussia Park |

Posted By: Borussia

It varies from game to game - I would drop the ticket office an email and see. They do hold some tickets back for foreign visiting fans for most games so you might get lucky. Failing that, you should be able to get sorted on the day. There will always be touts but they last time I was there we picked up the spare we needed from fans in one of the bars before the game

Quite unlikely. There are a small number that do but you need to be online about 45 minutes beforehand on the morning they go on sale, if not longer. I did it that way a couple of years ago and got one. You'll get tickets to Schalke, Leverkusen, Moenchengladbach and Cologne games easily enough, though. They're all close enough by. Schalke may be a bit trickier but they are all possibilities. See if any of the other three are at home (obv Cologne are). -------------

We actually got tickets from a tout on the afternoon for not that much. I think we paid 70 euro each for 50 euro tickets, which wasn't a bad deal. It was Dortmund v Hamburg and it finished 6-2. Didn't realise you could email the ticket office or that they held tickets back for foreign fans. -------------

If you are only going over for one night for the game then it makes sense to stay in Dortmund but there really isn't too much to the city. If you are going over for a few days then I'd be tempted to stay in Dusseldorf or Cologne. |

In terms of Dortmund, I'd get up there early and then walk out from town to the ground. You'll find a couple of small bars on the way that will have fans in them and most are happy to have a chat ! In terms of Cologne, depends what you are after. There are a couple of Irish Bars in the Altstadt that will have the Champions League games on (Corkonian, Barney Valley's). If you are looking for some local stuff then the Fruh Brauhaus near the cathedral is worth a visit. Close to Neumarkt you'll find a bar called "Thiebold'e Eck". It's a nice little "Lokal" bar that lots of FC Koeln fans drink in. Something a bit different !

CC Wouldn't be a huge fan of Köln bier .. Kölsch Fine for a few but not for a long night. It is served in small glasses (really horrid in .5l glasses). They will refresh your glass unless you put your hand over it The "biermuseum" bar had a good selection of beers Only spent any time in one Irish bar, Jamesons and it was fine. |

Good tips Borussia, will be taking advantage of them next week. got sorted with tickets for gladbach v schalke too, 3 games in 3 days. have tickets for the north terrace for the Dortmund game, do people just stand anywhere or do you have to go to your 'seat'? don't want to encounter any seat Nazi's, enough of them following Ireland sometimes

Don't do social media, thanks though! Be sure to film everything you can and annoy the fellas sitting behind. ------------- Greed has won, big finance has won. Whatever small role elite clubs still play in the local communities from which they grew is dwarfed now by their position as global brands. |

Last 2 times I've been over I've had both: Second time my mate stood in beside me, time before nobody was having it. Really hate the German stereotypes about being organised and liking rules but it's probably more the case at a game than not. |

I'm not off till Thursday, would I be right in saying that my match ticket would cover the train from Dusseldorf to Monchengladbach?

It does cover matchday travel - I'm fairly sure it would extend as far as Dusseldorf but I wouldn't be 100% sure.

Loved every minute of it , Spent to first night in the Jameson for the champions league and went on a bit of a crawl after that. Couldn't get over how cheap the train was to Dortmund 46 euro for a group ticket (5 of us). Went beering in a few supporters bars before the game great atmosphere between the Dortmund and Benfica fans. Closer to the stadium the prices get cheaper 1 Euro programme 2 euro beers and 2 euro hotdogs (imagine what that would cost outside the Aviva) Them Germans know how to treat the fans Atmosphere in the ground was the best iv come across and the result more or less paid for our match tickets and beers  Will visit again ------------- There's no point being the richest man in the graveyard |

Bayern actually lose a Bundesliga match Kudos for Hoffenheim who I think head into the top 3 |
