Bollox!!

Fucking typical. I have been waiting patiently for the TSV fixture list for next season to plan our now annual trip to see Der Lowen play. The first choice game was to travel to Hamburg, to visit the Reeperbahns very own St Pauli, but this game has been scheduled for the 21st of September, and there is no way on Gods green earth that I will be able to afford it, with Tom's stag night at the beginning of the month, and then Paris with the Elster in early October. So our next choice was the self styled capital of the Balck Forest, Freiburg. Shouty has a mate in Basle, who was willing to put up three of us free of charge, and it is only an hour or so on the train. But guess what the opening game of the season is?? That's right, Freiburg away. With no hols left for this year, my two preferred games are not going to happen. So it has left us in a bit of a pickle. The only decent game in 2009, is Nurnberg away, the last day of the season and a Bavarian derby to boot, so tickets will be like the proverbial rocking horse shit. This leaves a home game as an option, but lets face it, if we are going to do that, it would be wise to do it during the Oktoberfest, and I don't have cat in Hells chance of being able to afford it this year. So it looks like we might be hitting a backwater early next year. Even I haven't heard of some of these teams, FC Ingolstadt 04, Rot-Weiß Oberhausen or SV Wehen Wiesbaden. Could be interesting, I shall investigate.
