There are BVB supporters all over the world. Dublin, Ireland is no exception. When we heared that two of them were coming to Dortmund to visit their first live match at the mighty Westfalenstadion we had to meet them for a chat. In our video interview Bernardine and Trish, two lovely Irish girls, told us how they came across Borussia Dortmund, why they don't care so much about the EPL and why they were celebrating, when Ireland got thrashed by Germany in their hometown. And last but not least about their battle to form an official BVB Fan Club in Dublin, which has not been successful so far, due to communication problems with their favourite club. Carry on girls, the Emerald Isle needs some black'n'yellow spots.

cup final, his role as a build-up central defender and future perspectives (with

The schwatzgelb.com gang met in their favourite bar in the Kreuzviertel to follow the afternoon matches before heading up Lindemann towards Westfalenstadion and what was supposed to be an important win in our race for the title. It never happened. As we all know.

In his three years with Borussia Alex Frei successfully continued the Swiss tradition in Dortmund. He evolved into personified life insurance during our relegation fight. The 2007 Derby hero scored 34 goals in 74 matches. Despite several injuries the all-time top scorer of the “Nati” (Swiss national team) always fought his way back into the starting line-up. Unforgettable his brace in September 2008 against Blue Scum, which meant the comeback after being 0-3 down. Only recently Alex Frei announced his resignation from the “Nati” by the end of the 2010/2011 season.

It is a gloomy day in Dortmund. The rain is drizzling down, a rough wind blows and coming in to the city the U is hidden behind clouds, only some yellow shining through the grey. But never mind the bad weather, it is all sunshine down at training ground in Brackel. Some 100 people have gathered to watch the first training session of our boys in black and yellow. Rumors of the call up of at least three Borussia young guns circulate among the packed journo area until Kevin Großkreutz smiles and says: “Yes, it is true”.
