Guest MattP Posted 25 January 2013 Posted 25 January 2013 We could do with a summer tour of friendlies like that again, would make for a superb away tour.

ian the fox Posted 25 January 2013 Author Posted 25 January 2013 We could do with a summer tour of friendlies like that again, would make for a superb away tour. absolutely agree with you on that one ..............couldnt see us drubbing Dortmund 6-0 nowdays
Guest Bilo Posted 25 January 2013 Posted 25 January 2013 We could do with a summer tour of friendlies like that again, would make for a superb away tour. It would be superb. A tour of grounds where we'd be treated like adults at football matches, what a novelty. North-Rhine Westphalia is good apparently. VfL Bochum Arminia Bielefeld Fortuna Dusseldorf FC Koln Borussia Moenchengladbach Borussia Dortmund FC Koln FC Schalke 04 Any two or three from that list, plus a trip to Hamburg/St. Pauli or Dresden would be the dream.
ian the fox Posted 25 January 2013 Author Posted 25 January 2013 Its a great area , ive been theyre 5 or 6 times myself , not to mention Mainz & Eintracht Frankfurt down the river wine !!!
Guest MattP Posted 25 January 2013 Posted 25 January 2013 Might be time to bombard the club with e-mails with suggestions then! I'll leave out Beiefield mind, probably the worst town I've been to in Germany.
ian the fox Posted 25 January 2013 Author Posted 25 January 2013 stern opposition , great culture & achievable transport for away fans , Cologne is about 6 hours by rail now from Leicester......would be a winner for me
Guest Bilo Posted 25 January 2013 Posted 25 January 2013 If it's a pre-season friendly tour, we'd probably get to experience safe standing first hand as well. Stuff the inbox.
Saxondale Posted 25 January 2013 Posted 25 January 2013 I remember watching us lose to Borussia Monchengladbach in the close season of 1992. Was anybody else there?
dynamark Posted 25 January 2013 Posted 25 January 2013 is not leicester twinned with Koblenz make a nice regular trip both ways.
MC Prussian Posted 25 January 2013 Posted 25 January 2013 is not leicester twinned with Koblenz make a nice regular trip both ways. Nope, that would be Krefeld. Sadly, their football team, KFC Uerdingen, has been in steady decline since the mid-nineties. I remember the days when they were in the Bundesliga.
dynamark Posted 26 January 2013 Posted 26 January 2013 Close- wondered why noone would speak to mw when I went to Koblenz.Top quality castles!
ian the fox Posted 26 January 2013 Author Posted 26 January 2013 I remember watching us lose to Borussia Monchengladbach in the close season of 1992. Was anybody else there? Is that the game when Lowe got his face smashed ?
Finn Claw II Posted 26 January 2013 Posted 26 January 2013 Would love a tour to Germany - Koln would be awesome. Really though forget the friendlies - Dortmund vs. Shalke is a game that would be amazing to go to
21st Century Fox Posted 26 January 2013 Posted 26 January 2013 Its a great area , ive been theyre 5 or 6 times myself , not to mention Mainz & Eintracht Frankfurt down the river wine !!! Definitely!
