Used to work with him at BBC Monitoring in the early to mid-90s. Never knew about the Neues Deutschland thing, though. I read his BBC columns when he was going through the brain tumour. Did they get published as a book?

That's the lad. Leeds fan. At the BBC we had not exactly a disagreement, but we weren't close. I did appreciate his honesty, though. I asked him if he was coming to my leaving drinks and he said, "Would love to, but I've got some paint drying at home that needs watching."

Very entertaining game between Dynamo Dresden and St Pauli.
The visitors raced into a 3-0 lead after only half an hour, but still managed to mess it up. Dresden got it back to 3-2 only to be reduced to 10 men with 5 mins to go after the ref consulted VAR for a bad foul. It all looked over but Dresden broke up the field a minute later, the St Pauli keeper went walkabout and it was 3-3. Cue mental scenes behind the goal from the Dresden faithful. St Pauli will be kicking themselves for throwing this one away.

Dortmund can't lose these games if they plan to compete for the title. But kudos to Union; they fully deserved this win. They were solid at the back, kept pushing Dortmund out wide, and took their chances.

Time to start finalising my plans for my upcoming trip to Germany at the end of October.
The Mainz v Cologne game I was looking at has been moved to the Friday night. That clashes with Adler Mannheim v Straubing Tigers (ice hockey) so is a no go. Realistically it leaves 2 options:
Freiburg v Leipzig in the Bundesliga or Karlsruhe v Hannover in Bundesliga 2 on October 26th.
When do Freiburg normally release tickets for general sale? I know that they've got the smallest ground in the top flight and that tickets against Leipzig may not be in abundance. I'd be confident of getting 2 tickets if I knew when they went on sale, but there's nothing on their website to indicate when thats likely to be.

St Pauli have just beaten Hamburg at home for the first time since 1960, and for the first time ever in the "professional era".
Seeing as it's something I've been desperately waiting for for thirty years, it's quite a lucky coincidence I happened to look at tonights fixtures before putting Only Connect on.

What a strange weekend: No home wins, and eight of the nine Bundesliga matches were away wins. The only homeside to avoid defeat was Dortmund, who can't have been too happy with their draw against Werder.
Köln have manage for the second weekend running to have a defender sent off at 0-1 and going on to lose 0-4
