Freshly printed and coming to a stadium near you. Ready for the 16/17 Season.


It’s still amazing to think that I was in the capital city of the victorious country watching the World Cup final. As Germany will not be in the final this year, let’s look back at their last major Football achievement. This is the story and these are the images of that magical evening, July the 13th 2014.

It’s going to be a long hot summer for From Boothferry To Germany. Most clubs across the world have announced their pre-season plans now and we’ve been researching them all diligently to see which ones work best for us.

Starting in Bochum, who host Brentford FC on the 13th of July, and making a visit to the Deutsche Fußball Bund national museum in Dortmund the next day. Then it’s on to one of our favourite cities, Dresden, at the end of the month. 4 teams are in town, Everton, Werder Bremen, Real Betis and of course SG Dynamo Dresden. All will play each other and we’re going to join the fun on the 29th. And lastly Hull City have announced their pre-season schedule with games against Çaykur Rizespor and Torino FC, once again in Austria. These are ones we are sure not to miss.
Shout out to our friends in Lokeren who play host to Newcastle United. That is a game we cannot make but would love to be there to give one to the Geordies.
Everywhere We Go, Everyone Will Know.
3 games in 7 days for FBTG. We start off with Hertha BSC hosting Eintracht Frankfurt at the Olympiastadion on Wednesday the 2nd (having managed to bag tickets in the Ostkurve). The following day will see us at St. Andrews in Birmingham with Hull City, the game pulled forward two days for TV reasons. But the final game is the biggest; the 5th round FA Cup replay back at the KC Stadium against our newest nemesis.

See you on the terrace.
Found on the wall at the doctor’s. It’s always been a common advertising practice to use a pop-culture reference as a vehicle for whatever you’re selling, but disguising condoms as badly painted cartoon footballers created by the clinic employees to get kids to use contraceptives is just laughable. Clearly the German Public Sector workers are a bit naive when it comes to understanding what will impress the judgmental youth of today.

Unless there is an untold narrative that I’m missing here? Maybe this is the story Continue reading
Travelling this weekend back to the Daknamstadion to support our friends at Sporting Lokeren. Game will be played Sunday evening at home to K.V. Oostende with tickets around 18 €. Is there anything I’m missing?

These guys know how to party and I have fond memories of the place. Beer inside the ground and all-standing home support in a working class provincial town; the spirit of the sport.
