078 April skies

The ups and downs of the three games against Frankfurt, Hoffenheim and Bielefeld in late April left us feeling emotionally exhausted and in need of a wee break. Are we actually quite glad the season is almost over, and are we looking forward to the summer break? Of course not!
Our team’s mystifying return to and loss of and return to form within eight days is a main topic, as is the upcoming match against Bayern Munich, the exciting prospect of qualifying for the brand-new European League Conference and traveling to exotic locations next season, and the fear of losing one or more of our “football gods” at the end of the season.
One of these football gods provides this podcast’s Legendary Goal in a match where we bossed Bayern Munich about in their own stadium, as we seem to have formed a habit of doing every second year.
The Jesus and Mary Chain, apparently, are not interested in football but the lyrics to one of their many Golden Oldies remind you of how it feels to be a fan of probably the best club in the world.

077 Retreat of the body snatchers

Finally: the turn-around! Manuel and Alexis muse on how sheer luck and good passing football so suddenly und unexpectedly returned in the match against Freiburg. Then: an emotional debate about controversial refereeing decisions and the heroic, epic battle of 10 good men in Berlin. And of course your absolutely impartial experts on all things Borussia Mönchengladbach provide you with all you need to know about Adi Hütter, presently coach of sensationally in-form Eintracht Frankfurt, and soon-to-be coach of the best club in the world.
For legendary goals, we, yet again, couldn’t resist Juan Arango, this time with a mind-melting 35-yard rollercoaster strike against Frankfurt in 2012.
