June
2018: Best laid plans and all that...
So, updating this website became a lot trickier
after I changed jobs however, on the upside, that
has paid for a LOT more Fortuna trips! I'm keeping
this website online as a kind of archive however,
if you're looking for more up-to-date information
for UK-based Fortuna fans, please head over to
Chris's excellent UK
Fortuna site (where you can even sign up for
fan club membership).
June 2011: A new update is coming
soon - I promise... The Matches page has been
updated (just to prove I've still being going
to games!), but it will be another week or two
until I've sorted all the photos from the 21 matches
I've been to since the last update - sorry! UPDATE
June 2018: Okay, maybe it's not...
20 Dec 2009: Another long break,
but this time it wasn't due to laziness in updating
the website but due to circumstances outside of
our control.
Helen lost her job (but now has a new one, much
closer to home, so all is good there) and, combined
with the painful £-€ exchange rate
and the wider spread of games - Bundesliga 2 games
can be anytime between 6pm on a Friday and 8pm
on a Monday! - things were very uncertain for
us for quite some time.
Thankfully, through a combination of text messages
(thanks Mirko, Holgi, Chris, Thomas and Achim!),
the Live-Ticker and some dodgy internet feeds,
we managed to keep up to date with Fortuna's fantastic
start to life back in BL2.
After a six-month wait, and with me stuck on
49 Fortuna games, we were able to take in two
matches in a two-week period - away to 1860
(in the Allianz Arena) and at home to local rivals
Oberhausen. To
see the photos, just click on the links.
With things now getting more back to normal,
we're confident of getting across to few more
matches in the Rückrunde, starting
with the home match against old rivals Union Berlin
at the end of January.
Cheers, Paul
