Stadt Posted 23 May 2017 Share Posted 23 May 2017 I can't see Juve's dominance lasting too much longer, probably another two or three seasons of being the absolute best. They've lost 5 games this season after previously going unbeaten. Buffon, Barzagli, Bonucci and Chiellini are all aging, Allegri's getting linked to other jobs and the Milan clubs are loaded nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having grown up loving Italian football I hope though it's in a way that means the other teams do actually improve, as opposed to Juve just slipping.

It's absolutely logic-defying isn't it? Couple of decent derbies (of sorts) in the promotion/relegation play-offs in Braunschweig-Wolfsburg and 1860-Jahn Regensburg.

MC Prussian Posted 26 May 2017 Share Posted 26 May 2017 Wolfsburg won the first derby against Braunschweig 1-0 thanks to a dubious penalty. Gonna get very feisty for the replay. The stadium in Regensburg is sold out for tonight's match against 1860, and the return leg has already seen more than 50'000 people going for a ticket (5'000 from Regensburg alone). If only the "Löwen" could motivate more fans to go and see a match on a regular basis, part of their problem would be solved. But the fish stinks from the head, so they say...

One main Ultras section has ceased to exist, the other has lost its purpose after banners got stolen by Bayern fans. But the main reason for not attending is the circus surrounding the owner, Hasan Ismaik. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC Prussian Posted 30 May 2017 Share Posted 30 May 2017 (edited) "Goliath" 1860 Munich relegated to the 3. Liga in front of 62'000 people following a 2-0 home loss against Bavarian neighbors and "David" Jahn Regensburg. 1860 fans flipping out towards the end, throwing seats and whatnot onto the pitch.

Voll Blau Posted 31 May 2017 Share Posted 31 May 2017 (edited) As a Bochum fan I'm not meant to, but I do have a soft spot for 1860. Hopefully they bounce back. Need to rid themselves of that troublesome "investor" first though by the sounds of it. Edited 31 May 2017 by Voll Blau Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovejoy Posted 31 May 2017 Share Posted 31 May 2017 I had no idea Ian Ayre had (briefly) rocked up at TSV 1860. Sounds like a shambles with this Hasan Ismaik running things. I really hope they recover quickly. My old man tells me though that they thought they'd bounce back to the Bundesliga when they went down in 2004.
