I’m sure you guys understood the joke of me “merching up” and looking like a tourist 😅 Thanks to the Schalke fans for their hospitality 🍻 today I experience another 2 teams who have started badly - in the Bundesliga - (local rivals?) VFL BOCHUM vs KIEL 👍🏾
@@RysFootyParadisecould u maybe do a video on Oldham athletic because of there premier league days maybe go to a away match of there’s against someone tiny like against Braintree or Wealdstone..that would be interesting ?⚽️
That's crazy in it's own right. The stadium used to host the biggest game in club football. And Schalke until not too long ago were solid contenders every season to make it out of UCL group stages and an opponent to take serious, even for the biggest teams on earth... Now it's hosting 2nd league matches and they were at times fighting relegation to 3rd league last year already. And with the start to the season, it looks like that will once again be likely what this season will be about, rather than going for promotion. And still, it's full every home game... Just mad.
I have no idea what Florian Kofeldt gave his players in the cabin, but it must have been something strong. At the same time our players completely forgot how to play football in the second half. I was in N5 Row 8 in the Norkurve and everybody was pissed at how easily they gave their lead away. We have been through so much shit in the last years and now with all tose bad games recently, it was no surprise that everyone was extremely pissed at the players. I still hope that you had a great time here. We hope to see you soon at more games here. But hopefully with much better results. I have also met plenty of schalke fans from around the world inside the stadium. From the USA, Venezuela, Austria, Norway, China and even coutries like South Africa i have met all kinds of fans. Which is pretty surprising for us since we dont really play great football here, but once you fall in love with the club, there is no turning back i guess. There is also an english schalke fanclub, of which i forgot the name sadly. These guys come over for every single homegame, some of them are even season ticket holders, which are hard to get here and it can take up to 10 years to get one. They told me that it is much cheaper for them to come to germany and watch games here than in england. They told me, that even how bad the games get here, it will always be more fun to watch schalke than any premier league game, since the culture around the games is so vibrant.
Your video really captured the atmosphere and the feeling of Schalkers in Veltins Arena! Cheers from Mexico and the good looking mexican guy you interviewed in Cafe del Sol, mate!. 👋👋
Wer kennt es nicht, der krasse Support wenn Elversberg, Paderborn, Fürth, Regensburg oder Ulm mit tausenden zu Gast sind. So kann man sich jedoch das Versagen der ganzen von Steuergeldern finanzierten „großen“ Vereine schönreden 😂
In just one stadium in the 2nd Bundesliga there is more atmosphere than in all the stadiums in the Premier League combined!!!!!!!! should give you something to think about! Aleee SVD Aleee
Really great video. You have also chosen a special game 😂 Even if I'm not really impartial as a Hertha Berlin fan, you should watch a game at the Olympiastadion. The stadium is really fascinating and the atmosphere is also first class. Last year we had an average attendance of just under 51,000, which is really strong for us. In general, the 2 Liga is full of big clubs that are worth a visit. HSV, Schalke, Köln & Hertha all have over 5,000 average away fans this season.
Hertha were our "original" club back in 2006 when we visited Berlin with our schools 😅 drifted away from German football until earlier on this year and now there's no looking back! Feel right at home in Germany watching passionate football!
@@RysFootyParadise Great. When you're done with the 2 Liga, you have to take a look at the 3 Liga😂. There are also clubs with extremely strong fan bases (Dynamo, Hansa, Essen, Aachen). But cool that you have a connection to Hertha. We were a bit more successful back then too😂 We've had some tough years recently with an investor who drove us to ruin. After relegation, however, the new president Kay Bernstein (former Ultra/Fan boss „Capo“) ushered in the „Berliner Weg“, with players from our own youth and without a lot of money. Unfortunately, he died far too young in january. But the Berlin way continues and the atmosphere in the club is much better.
Einfach nur Geil und der Schwedische Spieler er ist wow der kam von der ersten niederländischen Liga von FC Utrecht wenn noch weitere schwedischer Spieler kommt für Magdeburg und Niederländer und Franzosen die 2 Liga wird noch besser als die erste Liga
Having been to both Bundesliga 1 and 2 games I have no doubt German football is on a different level to England. I have been to Schalke and the fanaticism is off the scale. Mind you, smaller Bundesliga 2 clubs are just as passionate.
@@RysFootyParadise It does somewhat make me laugh when some of the bigger English clubs supporters think they are the top dogs when it comes to fanaticism/passion.
I fully understand that 🍻 I fell in love with German football as it offers me everything I am missing from English football - fan involvement, atmosphere, FUN, beers at games, electric energy, passion
Ah yes, we are in September and all starts again. The coach questions, wrong decisions because we did not bought good defenders. Kaminski does Kaminski things. And the club ist burning again from the inside. I'm burned out with this Club, really.
Any tips on the best way to get tickets or do these trips? My best friend and I of 45 years are flying to Cologne in March to hopefully take in 3 matches over 4 days - we don’t mind if it’s B1 or B2 and might even watch Fortuna Koln in the regional league. Ideally we want to watch at least two B1 matches in that area, which is why we’ve timed the trip to fit the fixture list.
Network with fans, members of the clubs and see if they can help out 😊 Fortunately with doing RUclips, people reach out to me and are really helpful and good people 🖤❤️💛
it's all mental. The poor performance by Darmstadt in die the first half after being without victory for decades as well as Schalke after the 2-3 when they started to shit their pants by the fear they could give a 3-0 away. A great sport.
Football is an error game, and second league means, more errors. But that the craziness, I think this football is closer to the legendary times of 60/70 of last century, with their glorious legends, when football simply did more errors.
As a Bochum-Fan, it was quite funny. I like the Score! 😁 Darmstadt is the worst Team, in 1. or 2. Bundesliga, which I can remember since 1979, which makes it even more funny. Hahahaha! Ok, I hope the VfL will not be in the same Situation after the Match, because the Situation is kind of similar. But I guess, you will bring us Luck! ; ) NUR der VfL! 8:11 Nice Burp! 😄
Moin! Ganz Ok...3:0 geführt dann noch 3:5 verloren...wtf! Heute Dynamo Dresden gegen FC Hansa Rostock mehr Brisanz geht nicht, Der Ostknaller schlechthin! BTW...Third Division!!!....30 Thousand Spectators Also auf nach Dresden!
You fo to Bochum vs Kiel without being at gunpoint forced to? That truly sounds like the worst game of all possible games and the two worst teams in league 1 ... Why
Depends what you want from football - it’s entertainment to me and I’m entertained as a live fan by the atmosphere over there 😊 Premier League is for tv 📺
So he went to Dortmund fully dressed as a Dortmund fan and now showing up "auf Schalke" only four month later? In Germany that’s rated as high treason!

Well, you picked a special game for your first 2. Bundesliga match :)
That's an average 2. Liga game lol
@@dnny1440 Average Schalke game 🥲
2nd kleague is akso commercial dogshit. look at al the tourist auf schalke hahahhahaa fucking japenese crowd
3:5 after a 3:0 lead and an Englishman in a Germany jersey. Now I've seen everything. Love from Germany to England from a german Sunderland fan.💕
🤣🤣🤣👍
Ey love that 90s Germany training trikot 🤩👍🏾
Of course this Video is much more fun as a Darmstadt supporter⚜️⚜️⚜️
Wow, just being there experiencing the atmosphere with 61.000 fans and all the beers life is good 👍
7:00 is the son of Simon Terodde and Niklas Füllkrug😂
I went there for the 2004 champions league final - Porto Monaco. Beautiful stadium!
Beautiful considering it opened in 2001 🤩

Glad you enjoyed it! Haha 😁 Shame about the result. Big changes at the club, hopefully now things will change
Going from Schalke-Darmstadt to Bochum-Kiel will make you realise that 2nd Bundesliga is superior.

Classic Football Shirts 😊

If you guys bring this kind of luck to the home team could you please come to our away games, please????
The curse of the English 😅

Ein Leben lang keine Schale in der Hand 😂
talk with the fans there
Fun fact: Pope John Paul II had a Schalke membership.
Tough loss for Schalke.
Wow. I thought England's games at Euro 2024 in that stadium were bad. This may be a stupid/obvious question, but does Ry have a favourite German club?
Its Not bc of the Stadium sherlock
@@TheSolvenceny no, I meant for an English viewer, like Ry. He seemed to be supporting Schalke.
I’ll just get behind the teams I watch for now, experience every Bundesliga/2. B/3. Liga club/stadium then make an “official decision” 😅👍🏾
