Dortmund Respect

[Soulman]

Dortmund's 80,000 crowd sing 'You'll Never Walk Alone' in tribute to fan who died during game.
One fan passed away and another was in a stable condition in hospital after they both suffered heart attacks at the Westfalenstadion.

Very eerie.

Nice tribute but it is weird hearing that tune sung in (very) Germanic tones. Reminds me of the Zulus singing at Rorke's Drift. "They've got a very good bass section, mind you but they've got no tenors, see."

Firstly condolences and best wishes on a recovery... but fantastic..truly fantastic.

The Dortmund fans sat the rest of the game in near silence out of respect for the fan who passed away. RIP.

How easy was it getting tickets for Dortmund?

Had some German mates get me a ticket.

Have friends in Germany who support Shalke. Have been there and Dortmund. Fantastic atmosphere at both. German clubs seem to have an anthem that all from 8 to 80 sing that goes on for 5mins. Shalke have about 10000 standing behind goal who produce noise throughout

German football & fans = great

That tune = horrible

Unless you know somebody who is a member, nigh on impossible. You can often find them on those legalised scalping sites such as ticket stub, viagogo etc, but you can expect a hefty markup.

We need the North stand to be steeper and far more imposing and hold twice as many

You've pointed out precisely why it's hard to sustain the atmosphere at the Amex.
