Went into this game wanting Gladbach to win if no other reason than the name amuses me. Soon as they go 2-0 up I’m cheering on Frankfurt. Can’t seem to want to support the team doing well in a game - Charlton have broken me.

I put a few quid (literally) pre match on Gladbach and even I wanted Frankfurt to pull it back to make it interesting.
They've been a bit better in the second half to be fair.
Whilst the lack of crowds detracted, I did enjoy watching a bit of football. I intend to watch a bit more tomorrow and Monday. I don't think my wife is too happy and has already made a comment about football being on every day when it hasn't been on for two bloody months!
Looks like the soaps are running out of episodes too
Watched the first half of Dortmund v Schalke and then turned over to watch RB Leipzig v Freiburg in the second half. In all the circumstances, I thought the level of intensity from the players was reasonably good.
Tuned in a little later to ITV Hub to watch an hour of highlights from England v Cameroon in Italia 90. I knew we were lucky when I watched it at the time but this reminded me of just how fortunate we were on the night (although I had forgotten that, having made two substitutions, Mark Wright had to go and play on the wing after a nasty head gash).
Ordered some bratwurst from the guy that normally supplies the German Beer Keller places in London (he’s now delivering to households in SE London & Kent while those places are shut) for this weekend so we could have German Day in our house!

What's the website mate, I'd be interested in that.
I thought some of the goal keeping was shocking. I watched Fortuna v Paderborn, Frotuna hit the woodwork 3 times they just can't put the ball in the back of the net... remind you of anyone. Third bottom is not relegation just into the play offs with the teams from Bundes 2, like back in the day v Leeds.

I like the weird songs they play at German football - Gurther Forth played the Friends theme tune in the final whistle and Cologne seem to run out to some German version of Take the High Road

1-0 up after 40 seconds
Wow that flowchart really was spot on for me, Frankfurt really are the Charlton of the Bundesliga
Watched Dortmund | Leipzig | Frankfurt and picture quality has been pretty good, had zero buffering
Kept quiet as was hoping no one had noticed
Foolish of me I know as this isn't my first time on CharltonLife

I do like a well done sausage.
Unfortunately my missus doesn't feel the same way. Ever.
Here's the Dortmund highlights: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yoidk_EM-VE
Only saw from the 50th minute yet cant beat an equaliser with the last kick of the game
Germans seem to like those
Doesnt replicate fans being there but better than nothing
Furth got the late equaliser that @ForeverAddickted mentioned
Wehen beat Stuttgart with a 97th minute penalty
Osnabruck got a 94th minute equaliser against Bielfield
