Still amazed that Leverkusen managed to remain unbeaten in the league, so many close calls during the season.

You don't see this at every club when celebrating the title, both captain Hradecky and manager Xabi Alonso went up into the stands to the capo platform with the Meisterschale, to make chants etc.
There was another very cool thing that happened, at 19:04 the fans observed a moment of silence to honor those who didn’t live to see the club win it’s first title.

Then and there

Obviously those who were supporters before club's promotion ti 1.BL for the 79/80 season, never even thought about winning the title.

This message relates closest to those who were around in mid 90's Christoph Daum's teams. From former players I certainly hope Ulf Kirsten was asked to join the celebrations, as he was team's top scorer in seven seasons.

Maybe 3-time scoring leader Berbatov and 4-time leader Kiessling too. At least Rudi Völler was there in a director role.

I for one quite like that they have something resembling an identity, hasn't always been the case and ultimately separates them from the likes of Duisburg or Oberhausen.

Mainz by the way was the only team dirtier than them in terms of bookings, Union dominated in red cards.

Wasn’t talking about the players. Bochum fans are some of the biggest shitheads in the buli right now.

With the emergence of the Ruhrstadt Kollektiv they have internal competition again.

St. Pauli wins the 2. Bundesliga title and Rostock gets relegated directly amid rioting. Wiesbaden heads to the relegation playoff, presumably without their manager who got sent off. Lautern demolishes Braunschweig 5:0 despite being one man down since the 58th minute.

3-way tie for the BuLi2 goal-scoring crown as Tzolis & Glatzel caught Tabakovic's 22.

Tzolis - 22G + 7A, 2365 min
