@BDStanley I think we should both be grateful that 90s Ben didn’t serenade the pub with “10 German bombers.”

@BDStanley Haven’t enjoyed a game of football as much since.

@BDStanley 2014 was definitely my Krautrock phase. Remember reading Stubbs’ book, which came out that year. Perhaps that comment referred to something else. I blindly (deafly?) followed a lot of terrible Quietus recommendations at the time.

@BDStanley You certainly weren’t a fan of Krautrock when I played it on our Chilean road trip. I can’t remember your exact words but it was something along the lines of “falling down a flight of stairs.”

@1NRSmith Qualified for the weird Conference League this year. 🥴

@OlliHellmann When I flew from Dortmund to Lemberg I visited Koln first. Lovely city - much nicer than Dortmund. But the reverse is the case with their football teams 😂 Again, interesting history. Thanks.

This made me laugh. As a huge European football fan growing up (at one time I followed Serie A, La Liga, Ligue 1, Eredivisie, and Bundesliga) I used to dominate at geography quizes at school but, I did slip up on occasion. Still shocked Atalanta isn't a city in Italy 🤣

@1NRSmith You might like this too. Blue/white dominate as football club colours in former Prussia, red/white in the rest of Germany. Not sure why though.

@1NRSmith Köln. Which (unlike Dortmund) used to be strongly catholic and was thus very unhappy about Prussian (protestant) annexation. Hence no “Borussias” in that part of Germany I guess.

@OlliHellmann Thanks man. That is all very interesting to me. Do you have a team?

@1NRSmith Not in core Prussia, but the Rhineland (and I think Dortmund) became part of Prussia after Vienna Congress in 1815. Other Borussia clubs in the west include Mönchengladbach and Münster.

@OlliHellmann Ah. Makes sense. What is the connection with Dortmund though, since Dortmund is not in Prussia?
