Just a short note because...

I don't know what to say about Raul at Schalke.

(At the club only its die-hard fans love.)

...

Just around the corner.

I could walk over there. Theoretically.

(Thinking about it is a little like thinking of sex. I can't really say why though.)

football, bundesliga

That would be the right impression, I'm afraid.

Personally I do not care for disliking them, I'm really impartial.
But there seem to be many reasons to many people. Let me name a few:

- Schalke always and forever playing the victim part

- they tend to have 'delusions of their own grandeur without true reasons'

- the fans being considered by many to be 'Asoziale'; a lot of people are without a job around there, but most of all it is meant to say that the fans are without decent conduct and manners

- many dislike the region already (Ruhrpott, industry/carbon, admittedly not all that pretty)

- football-wise there is the crucial rivalry with Dortmund and Dortmund usally wins

Well, don't get this wrong, this is not a dislike based on envy, as Schalke hasn't been Champion for half a century.
That's a rule. Schalke will never come first.

I'm not quite sure how he's supposed to fit in at Schalke, but Magath is smart enough to have thought of something when he signed him.

... Now, do you still think it's so nice and easy to simply go on as if nothing had happened and embrace a new club just because the player you love has chosen it?
