  Yeah, sorry about that one, but I needed a stereotype about the English to team up with the stereotype about ze Germans.;-)

  More than happy to be your stooge. I look forward to manfully failing to live up to my potential in future.

  ‘Bad news for people watching their football on German TV (i.e., please pity me).’
  Ehh…okay.

  Regarding the first link, I can only guarantee for now that the Germany-England friendly in November will be on the pay-TV at where I am for sure. Why? Every England international matches are always on here. Ah, out of 10 times, there will be eight times (just my rough estimate, I don’t have a proper statistic to back it up ) I will be able to watch Germany international matches…and just last night, happened to watch the repeat of the Switzerland-Germany friendly.

  But when I clicked on the Pies’s link to Klinsmann’s goal, it says that it’s no longer avaliable. Sigh, would loved to see it…
