Wonderful. Since it's "A history of Leeds United violence" save it for the Leeds article not this one. --Walter Görlitz (talk) 18:40, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It is totally relevant to the match of Bayern Munich v Leeds Utd which is being discussed here http://www.europeancuphistory.com/euro75.html The main talking point of this final, the referee and Leeds reaction to this performance!--Boogiejuice (talk) 19:12, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

But this article is about the senior mens club, not about individual matches or the supporters of other teams. Sorry you don't see that. I'll see if others in the football project agree by alerting them. --Walter Görlitz (talk) 19:20, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That article is only about the European Cup Final 1975 Bayern Munich v Leeds http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/special_report/1999/05/99/uniteds_euro_showdown/347144.stm And a BBC News report of this match and the referee.--Boogiejuice (talk) 20:42, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It also appears that you're directly copying material from sources such as [1] which is a copyright violation. Feel free to paraphrase the material, but don't lift it directly. --Walter Görlitz (talk) 20:44, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Now I see copyright violations from here as well. --Walter Görlitz (talk) 20:46, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

direct quotes are not copyright violations.--Boogiejuice (talk) 21:17, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

True. But you were copying and pasting more than just direct quotes as the links show. --Walter Görlitz (talk) 21:25, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The only information from the BBC website that is "word for word" are the direct quotes.--80.42.150.162 (talk) 21:30, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Now. But not here and not here, which was an earlier edit. --Walter Görlitz (talk) 21:34, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

thanks for correcting me, the previous posts were far more interesting and only well known facts.--80.42.150.162 (talk) 14:59, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

History

It's the case that Norwich City F.C. were the only English team to beat Bayern at the Olympic Stadium. However, is it not also the case that, at the time of writing, they remain the only English team to beat Bayern at home? Has any English team yet beaten Bayern at the Allianz Arena? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.141.33.138 (talk) 23:06, 27 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

According to UEFA, no: http://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/news/newsid=1789583.html --Jaellee (talk) 22:27, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

as of now, arsenal did in 2012-13, chelsea drew them/won after penalties (though at "neutral allianz arena" in the final), 04/05 was still played at the olympiastadion. (not counting friendlies). bolton drew them in munich in 07-08 uefa cup group stage. 92.196.61.124 (talk) 17:49, 8 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Nicknames

As far as I see, FC Hollywood is an ironic title the FC Bayern had in the past. Even if you may hear it now and then, it is neither a nickname in the strict sense nor is it current. -- Zz (talk) 12:59, 22 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That was the first name by I which I knew it. It may be pejorative, but it was commonly used in the 70s. --Walter Görlitz (talk) 15:15, 22 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

you don't believe that yourself do you? even now that name is almost never used. every once in a while in the yellow press, not in the football context. you could equally well use "scheiss-bayern" as a nickname, it's used even more frequently than fc hollywood. still noone would consider it a nickname. 92.196.61.124 (talk) 17:51, 8 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Current squad?

I just reffed the latest change in "FIFA Nationality" for Julian Green. So his entry is accurate as of today. But the "Current as of" cite at the top claims the list is current as of yesterday, based on a retieval of a team website retrieved in October 12th. Given how often this subsection would need to be updated to keep it current (i.e. nearly every day.) I think the whole "Current as of" heading should be deleted. It can rarely be considered reliably accurate unless someone checks the team web page daily. What do others think? David in DC (talk) 18:50, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Changing the heading to "First team squad" and keep the as-of date seems reasonable. Mentoz86 (talk) 19:19, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Somebody has posted in the notes to the main page that Julian Green's nationality should not be changed until he plays for the senior side. But as of today he is no longer eligible to play for Germany. If that is the rules "we" (who is this we?) use, then "we" should say so in the page rather than reference to FIFA eligibility rules. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.178.240.14 (talk) 23:10, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

First of all he has said he wants to change teams but ut has not been done yet, an application will have to be sent in to FIFA first and that will be done the upcoming weeks. And by "we" it is WP:Footy that always uses the FIFA nationality which is defined as the team the player last played for, and Green most recently played for Germany. It was the exactly same ase for Diego Costa a few weeks ago when he made his debut for Spain. QED237 (talk) 23:22, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It was announced by the United States Soccer Federation. That implies the paperwork is already filed and simply awaiting approval. Last team he played for is a horrible rule in this case as Green is no longer eligible for the German National team. It's also a horrible precedent to set in the case of players like Gedion Zelalem who will actually lose his German Citizenship if he makes himself eligible for the USMNT. Last National team to play for is perfectly fine when nationality is ambiguous. It is no longer ambiguous here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Adnan7631 (talk • contribs) 00:15, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"Simply awaiting approval" means it isn't official yet. Kingjeff (talk) 02:33, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It isn't official. When he stops onto the field for the US Mens National Team, that's when we change his nationality, not when he purportedly applies to have his nationality changed. Walter Görlitz (talk) 02:39, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
