What a difference an N makes

By: Luke | Comments 1 Comment

I’ve taken a little break for the international week, but events certainly have not, and with the possibility of a full scale revolt on our hands after this weekend, the first thing I want to do here is a little news roundup.

File under: Malcontents
Uli Hoeness’ unsurprising response to Phillipp Lahm
Luca Toni’s “sort of” apology
Martin Demichelis [...]

FC Bayern vs Schalke 04: The Search For a Non-Stereotypical Storyline

By: Luke | Comments 14 Comments

This is a terrific match for a lazy writer. So many storylines fall right into your lap. For this occasion, I could: a) Talk about how how Felix Magath’s dismissal from Bayern looks like a terrible mistake in retrospect and b) make a very negative indictment of Louis van Gaal by some statistical [...]

Bayern vs Bordeaux-A very quick preview

By: Luke | Comments 2 Comments

Sorry to say, that I simply don’t have the time to properly preview this critical Champions League match. We’ll have to dispense with the liveblog for this one as well, although I will be watching. We’ll hope to have a recap posting up not long after the match.
With both Müller and Van [...]

The Trial of Markus Babbel

By: Luke | Comments 1 Comment

Once again, Bayern Munich goes into an away match against a familiar opponent that has its back against the wall. That would be VfB Stuttgart of course, and it makes for a little more of a dramatic storyline that Stuttgart’s coach is long time Bayern defender Markus Babbel. You can follow the action [...]

First the basics, Eintracht Frankfurt will visit the Allianz Arena with the match beginning at 9:30 a.m. EST Saturday. The match will be carried on ESPN 360 and ESPN Deportes, and we’ll be up with a live blog here, hopefully not yawning through most of it.

Hamburger SV vs. FC Bayern Munich: Preview

By: Luke | Comments 12 Comments

Suddenly, the injury sheet takes a front row seat. Daniel van Buyten’s appearance is still in doubt after a training ground injury Thursday. The team’s website reported that he took part in training on Friday, however. This is a bigger deal than just being without an in-form player. There’s [...]

Pokal Preview: FC Bayern Munich vs Rot-Weiß Oberhausen

By: Luke | Comments 2 Comments

FC Bayern will take on Rot-Weiss Oberhausen in a 2nd round DFB Pokal match set for Tuesday at 1 p.m. EST. As of right now, there does not appear to be a broadcast or satellite viewing option for this match in the US. The official FC Bayern website will offer live webradio coverage. I [...]

Preview: FC Bayern Munich vs. 1. FC Nürnberg

By: Luke | Comments 3 Comments

The Bayern-Derby will kick off at 9:30 a.m. EST on Saturday. Those who are really in the spirit can begin drinking at about 6 a.m. EST when Munich Oberbürgermeister Christian Ude (sadly, an 1860 board member) taps the first keg to open Oktoberfest! The match will be shown live on ESPN Deportes and [...]

Borussia Dortmund vs. Bayern Munich: Match Preview

By: Luke | Comments 2 Comments

The boys in red head to Signal Iduna Park to face Borussia Dortmund at 9:30 a.m. EST Saturday. Despite good success at home (two 5-0 pastings over the last 4 years) and neutral sites (the 2008 German Cup victory), Bayern have not defeated BVB in Dortmund since December of 2005, a match notable for [...]

Pokal Preview

By: Angela | Comments 7 Comments

Courtesy of loyal reader and commenter, Luke:
In terms of DFB-Pokal 1st round exits, supporters of FC Bayern rarely have much to worry about. Not since calamaties against FV 09 Weinheim in 1990 and TSV Vestenbergsgreuth in 1994 (both clubs have since merged with others) have the Bavarian giants fallen in the 1st round. This year’s [...]
