Report | 23.04.2012 We proudly announce: BVB, German champion 2012! There are no words, neither in German nor English nor any other language, that could in any way describe what has happened yesterday. We all knew it, we"ve all hoped for it, but to actually BE German champion, again, is quite a different thing, although I guess we"ll all need...
Report | 15.04.2012 Aaaand once again: Good night, Blue-White! What a weird week this has been. The excitement and joy of Wednesday evening and the victory against Bayern were just about to fade, there comes the derby. So instead of the tiredness that usually follows the huge amount of emotions that accompany such a victory, here we are again...
Report | 26.03.2012 There aint no party like a Dortmund party It has been quite a restless week and there was a lot of talking going on in the media, among the fans and basically everywhere someone had something to say concerning our team.

Report | 04.03.2012 A permanent high This weekend can be summarized in four words: Victory, record, seven, disappointing. Three of those describe our young guns, one doesn"t - feel free to guess. Since we"re not on twitter here, we can indulge in the sweet celebration of the details behind these brief descriptions.
Report | 04.02.2012 Borussia?s own Groundhog day There isn"t really much to be said about the game itself but so much more about everything around it. It was cold, very cold. It wasn"t pretty but a piece of hard work and at the end of the week, we found ourselves at the top of the table, having...
Report | 30.01.2012 Gegen das Vergessen Der Fußball und seine enorme Strahlkraft sind dazu in der Lage, Brücken zu gesellschaftspolitischen Themen zu schlagen. Themen, die nicht in Vergessenheit geraten dürfen. Und das ist verdammt wichtig. Den 67. Jahrestag der Befreiung des Konzentrationslagers Auschwitz nahmen zahlreiche Institutionen der ganzen Republik zum Anlass, an die Verbrechen des Nationalsozialismus...
Report | 23.01.2012 Great, greater, Borussia Dortmund While I was writing my "looking back onto the year 2011" text, I remembered all the great moments we had during that year.And I realised that the year 2012 would have a damn hard time to be close to as great as the year 2011 had been. But it looks...
Report | 14.12.2011 Football Factory at Legends New York Vielleicht erinnern sich einige noch an die New York-Artikel hier auf schwatzgelb vor fast genau einem Jahr.

Report | 28.11.2011 The week of truth ends with a big bang The last game of our week of truth was the most important one out of the three for a lot of Dortmundfans. Because neither Munich nor Arsenal counts when the neighbours in blue and white come to town. Time for the 139th derby! After the devastating defeat on Wednesday and...
Report | 25.11.2011 Farewell Championsleague, see you next year! It is not really easy to find the right words for the game on Wednesday, or the feelings that followed afterwards. It was a sad day, in the end, for some reasons. Not completely, but somehow, very sad. And as you can tell from the first sentence already, it is...
Report | 22.11.2011 Aktionärsversammlung 2011: Von Bilanzen, Dividenden und Meisterschale Nicht wie sonst am Dienstag, sondern bereits einen Tag nach der BVB-Mitgliederversammlung trafen sich die Aktionäre zu Ihrer Hauptversammlung in der Westfalenhalle 2.

Auch sonst unterschied sich diese Veranstaltung...
Report | 20.11.2011 Der Jahreshauptversammlungs - Ticker: Sportlich top, wirtschaftlich top und nu? Ein Jahr ist vorbei, der BVB lädt zur alljährlichen Hauptversammlung des eingetragenen Vereins ein.

Report | 02.11.2011 There we go! "There are no failures - just experiences and your reactions to them.” In the last few weeks the printing press of Germany regarded "experience" as one major point for discussion when reporting about Borussia Dortmund and the results of the current Champions League season 2011/2012. Especially me was one of...
Report | 30.10.2011 A well deserved draw in Stuttgart Borussia's series of four wins in a row ends in Stuttgart after a fair draw between the defending champions and the ones of 2007.

Report | 26.10.2011 A Relaxed Evening - At Least for Mitch Langerak Based on the reactions that were communicated to the communication board of schwatzgelb.de, it can be determined that last evening was not a regular cup night. With Dynamo Dresden, a club from the new eastern states of Germany, a promising quantity of supporters could be expected. Unfortunately a part of...
Report | 23.10.2011 An autumn day of perfection... Let's note a few facts here. Sebastian Kehl's son may as well challenge his dad before every match of the week, Cologne's coach Solbakken is a man of great humour, Cologne fans are a good sport, and our young guns are amazing.
Report | 16.10.2011 Successful haul up north ? Did we see the champs again? Borussia Dortmund trawled for points at the 2nd ranked Fischköppe (fish heads) from Bremen. And the young-anglers from the Westfalen metropolis managed to take the catch of the day back home even though one man went overboard halfway through the cruise. This important win, achieved with the help of hard...
Report | 06.10.2011 Humiliation avoided in the last possible moment A test match of the reigning champion against a 5th division side should be plain sailing.

Report | 19.09.2011 Sucker punch on the home-stretch There are losses, one can take pretty easy, because the team gave all they had but the opponent proved to be a bit too strong for us on that particular day. The loss against Leverkusen in last season"s opening match could be named as an example for that. Also losing...
