Hertha in a Cup match tonight, very probably the last of the season, at home to Union. Yes, Arnebburg derby, and we are the clear underdog.

They got fucked in their first season in Europe, but they might very well get another shot right this year. We are tumbling towards relegation instead.

If it's any consolation Greuther are working hard to avoid the "Worst Bundesliga Team Evar At Anything At All". I mean, we'll still be relegated in last place with lots of room to spare (we have 10 points off 20 matches, and the team in the relegation playoff spot is 9 points above us), but we might just avoid becoming a laughing at any Bundesliga statistic you care to construct.

SpVgg Greuther Fürth 2 - 1 FSV Mainz 05

Played 114, won 48, drawn 21, lost 45.

Another fucking fuck result, fuck it.

Hertha BSC 1 - 4 FC Bayern München

Played 116, won 49, drawn 21, lost 46.

Should it worry me that I happen to support the two Bundesliga teams with the worst goal difference? Maybe it's not a coincidence.

We pretty much always lose to this lot, and almost always in controversial circumstances. Like, say, in this game where they got a dodgy late penalty then a winner in injury time. None of our penalty shouts given, of course.

Fucking Arabs 2 - 1 Ross County

Played 118, won 50, drawn 21, lost 47.

Just watched it on BBC Alba. Wow. Very last thing in the match was one of their defenders saving it on the line with his arm. No penalty, just the final whistle.

Dundee United. In the 1962/63 season their pitch was frozen solid for a few weeks and couldn’t be played on, so they brought in machinery to melt the ice. This turned it into a mud bath, so they brought in several lorry loads of sand to put on it. So they’ve been called the Arabs for almost 60 years because they once put (a lot of) sand on their pitch.

That little bit of trivia is the only good thing about that lot.

Regan Charles-Cook Is currently the top goal scorer in the Scottish Premiership. The remarkable things about that are that he’s not a striker but a midfielder, and one that plays for Ross County.

IrU derby in Dingwall today, we’re defending well but not scoring many. It could be a close one. Don’t know what the weather is like up there but it is blowing a hoolie down here.

Our best result ever against Rangers is a 0-0 draw, of which there were two in the 2016/17 season, so I’m not expecting much today.

I suppose that's a rather IRU-friendly result. Assuming that 3-3 is better than 0-0, we've seen County's best ressult evah against Rangers right?

Bundesliga seems to have an actual week off, without any Cup or International activity. Hertha play relegation competitor Bochum on Friday night, Greuther are away to overestimated team in crisis Wolfsburg Sunday night next wweek.

I was driving so have only just seen the result, not what I was expecting at all. Our new man scored which is always good.

I was driving most of the time too, but did see the injury time. Which included our late equaliser, scored by a 19 year old from Stornoway and his 1st goal for us.

Hertha buying a new left winger, a 19yo talent from a French Second League Club. Given Hertha's penchant for making players worse, I wonder what drew him to BCBCBB Hertha. Or maybe I know.
