So there we have it, the first match got cancelled last weekend because of a huge storm front blowing over Germany on Saturday afternoon. Apart from that there wasn't really anything happening. Quite frankly, this is becoming a little bit boring. Maybe the only piece of news worth mentioning is the hilarious comments the BAyern Munich front office was saying after they won at Schalke. Schalke's coach Mirko Slomka is under a lot of pressure since the club's president decided to voice his opinion on matters which he seems to have no clue about. Which lead to a now famous remark from Slomka about that you can put a nail in a wall to hang up a picture, but once you take the picture down and pull the nail out of the wall, the hole of the nail will stay there. Since then It's more than likely that Slomka will be sacked rather earlier than later. He still has the match against Porto in the Champions League this week, but if he loses that one most of the media guys think he's gone. So what Uli Hoeness and all those hypocrites did was commenting on the Schalke situation that it was not acceptable to sack a successful coach and stuff like that. What the hell, they have been crushing their own coach Ottmar Hitzfeld during the winter break just in the same way. It all started in Munich when President Karl-heinz Rummenigge announced that "football is not mathmatics" after a disappointing draw against Bolton Wanderes at home. Since then Bayern has done everything to dismantle Hitzfeld's position and status in the club. They found a replacement in Jürgen Klinsmann who will take over at the beginning of the new season. This is so typical of German media politics. When it's Bayern everything will do. No one even felt the need to point out the hypocritical behaviour. Ridiculous.
