....FORTUNA IS ON TOP OF THE TABLE!!! That's all that counts to me. Here are the results of the Bundesliga:
Energie Cottbus - Hannover 96 5:1
FC Schalke 04 - 1. FC Nürnberg 2:1
Werder Bremen - Bayer Leverkusen 5:2
Hertha BSC - Bayern München 0:0
Arminia Bielefeld - VfB Stuttgart 2:0
VfL Wolfsburg - Borussia Dortmund 4:0
Karlsruher SC - Hamburger SV 1:1
Hansa Rostock - VfL Bochum 2:0
MSV Duisburg - Eintracht Frankfurt 0:1
Bayern again only drew, Dortmund lost horribly, Schalke won again, Bremen thrashed Leverkusen and Cottbus shocked Hannover. But that's all bullshit. What really counts to me is that Fortuna Cologne tops the table of Verbandsliga Mittelrhein, the fifth division. They won against VfL Rheinbach away 3:2 and passed local rivals Viktoria Cologne who were beaten 1:4 by FC Junkersdorf, another club from Cologne. This is the first time Fortuna have been sitting on top of the table in a long time, in fact this is the first season in a long time when they really have a chance of getting promoted to a higher league. I have been going to games at the Südstadion for almost 20 years now and in all that time the only way has been down. Sure, there were a few highs, but all in all the spiral went downwards. The last success of the club was when they were promoted to the first division in 1973 and they are still the relegation team with the best record in one season. You can't buy anything off that nowadays so seeing them in first place is something very special to me. They are now in their winter break and play will resume in February. I'm looking forward to spring time...
