Ran past the home of the moral-less club in the midlands today as part of my 10 marathons in 10 days challenge. Had to remind them what a real team wears!
Leverkusen cruising to their first ever Bundesliga title. Can anyone name the other five clubs from Europe's top five leagues to be crowned champions for the very first time this century...?
I can't think of any new winners in Italy or England besides Leicester, so maybe a Spanish side like Deportivo? I remember them being good in the early 2000s. Maybe another French too - Rennes or Lille? Or even Lyon? I can't remember when their run started.
Barcelona fans have attacked their own team's bus, thinking it was the PSG bus. Apparently the badge and club name in great big letters down the side wasn't a big enough clue.
interesting read for anyone interested in grounds and finances, or anyone who ever wondered how Bradford aren't much higher up based on crowd sizes and past achievements.

They should be careful, or Zuckerburg might start a club called Realer Bedford and have tremendous success with it.
Crikey, well done Palace and Eze. Talk about a title-crushing bogey team.

Liverpool and Arsenal both bottling it, how inevitable 🙃
No
Leicester for the obvs one.
PSG? It feels like they are a recent thing. Montpellier too.
Montpellier yes. That was almost Leicester levels of underdog-ness.

You've got two there 👀
Lyon and Deportivo?
Yep! Lyon had never won it then went on a mad one.
The remaining one is German (not Leverkusen)
My boss in 1995 (retirement year) was a Blackburn fan. I’m fairly sure they were Premier League champions that year.
Weren't Dortmund fairly new to actually winning anything ?
Wolfsburg? I feel like they had a good season at some point.
This century brother M...that was last.
✅
Lyon had never won it and then won about 8 in a row? That's amazing!
Yep! And I might be wrong, but I don't think they had bags of money either?
That was also the 3rd time they'd been Champions
Surely anyone who introduces themselves as Successful Businessman Nigel LeQuesne has to be a bit good.

Three players aged 18 or under start Barça v PSG - a Champions League knockout first. I feel ancient.
the wheels are coming off!
Psg getting nowhere near the champions league whatever they try will always be funny.
