[@miztazed]

You summed it up very well Mert. You can't ask who is the best, because every single club has their own unique fanbase. Down to the 3rd or 4th division. It's more a competition who stands out the most. Me as a East German will also mention Dynamo Dresden and 1 FC Magdeburg and offcourse Union Berlin and Hansa Rostock. They all make no prisoners when it comes to coreography and actions.

[@bastiandawitz4953]

My most emotional experience as a fan of Arminia Bielefeld, a former 1st and 2nd Bundesliga club that currently plays in the 3rd German league, was at the DFB Cup semi-final against VfL Wolfsburg. Up until then, we had not only played a great cup season with victories against Bundesliga clubs Werder Bremen and Borussia Mönchengladbach, but also a great season in the 3rd division after being relegated the season before. A few weeks after this match, the team was promoted back to the 2nd Bundesliga in first place. That night though, we didn't stand a chance against Wolfsburg. We lost clearly 0:4. After the game, the Wolfsburg fans wanted to celebrate their entry into the cup final with their away fans in their curve, but that wasn't possible. We Bielefeld fans continued to celebrate and sing for a good hour after the final whistle. I was in tears, my voice was lost, it didn't matter. We celebrated the team, the season and our comeback after a tragic relegation. We acknowledged what the club stands and always stood for: getting back up, no matter how hard you fell. We sang the club anthem and didn't let up. In the TV broadcast, the presenter commented with the word "Gänsehautentzündung" (goosebump inflammation). Here is a video with a few minutes of the post match celebration filmed from the south stand, where the Ultras are standing. It speaks for itself. That's what makes football special in my opinion. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z2mydaqNaruXgtksi=OCpRKPqXEUx0CDFB

As a German, I was in England with my father about 28 years ago and I went to Liverpool to watch football and I've been a Liverpool fan ever since. I bought a cap and T-shirt straight away and played proudly on the pitch.

[@PetraNaefcke]

About twenty years ago I went to see Bruce Springsteen in Gelsenkirchen where Schalke 04 is located. On my journey home, the regional train was full to the brim with fans on their way to Bremen for a match against Werder Bremen. We quickly started chatting, and they offered me a seat and a bottle of beer, and we had a lot of fun. Even more so after I told them my fave club was Werder Bremen. They asked me why I, being from Hamburg, would not cheer for HSV or FC St. Pauli, our local clubs, and I explained to them that I always cheered for Bremen ever since I was a little girl. Afterwards, I got another beer, and we continued chatting until they had to leave the train. That's a fun memory.

Being a Dortmund-Fan for almost my whole life, i went on my first international away tour this year, against atletico in april. Although we lost 2:1, it was an amazing experience. Being in the city with 3500 supporters, at some times capturing the stadium against nearly 70000 home fans. Amazing. Definitely going again next year. The home support in Westfalenstadion is not as good as it was 10 years ago but the away support is amazing, in and out of germany, cause everyone in the block is giving everything.

[@bechri9573]

In fact, there are a couple of clubs that shape their city's character almost entirely, because aside from football, the city hasn't got many attractions to provide: Schalke (city of Gelsenkirchen), Mönchengladbach, Wolfsburg, (...) and, bottom of the list: Rostock, but, luckily there is football at least for those desperate souls - and even better: away matches, so good opportunities for short trips to nice places worth to be sighted 😇 ("Wir fahrn nach Haus', ihr müsst hier wooooooohn'!")

I think in Europe football has become somewhat of a substitute to all the regional wars that used to be fought. There are many parallels if you think about it. Now men just go to a derby instead of a skirmish with the neighboring village. Im sure there have to be socio-psychological studies about this phenomenon.

[@nathalierodde5218]

I'm not really into Football, but I went to St. Pauli vs Werder Bremen once with my boyfriend. Just loved the atmosphere. And I'll never forget the "battle cry" of St. Pauli: Wir kommen aus dem Norden, wir saufen und wir morden, wir waschen uns nie, St. Pauli. (We're from the north, we drink and kill, we never clean ourselves, St. Pauli)

I'll try it without fan glasses. Germany has some very strong fan scenes at a similar level, regardless of whether it's League 1, 2, 3 or even League 4. It's impossible to create a top 5 and even a top 10 doesn't do justice to many fan scenes. An order is also not fair. For me, a top 20 would include Lautern, Frankfurt, Schalke, Dortmund, Stuttgart, Magdeburg, Dresden, Cologne, Bremen, Aachen, Essen, Gladbach, Bayern (away), Düsseldorf, Rostock, Union, Hertha, 1860, HSV, St.Pauli. And even now I am missing some strong supporters. So sad that we have no organized support for our national team. But this is a different and very dificult topic.

[@muhamed23458]

Schalke is in the city of Gelsenkirchen in North Rhine-Westphalia in the Ruhr area neighbouring Dortmund Essen and Duisburg.

[@TrumpFanClubDeutschland]

Best Ultras probably Frankfurt and Dresden. But best supporters in general without a doubt Schalke.

[@TheMGlock]

Bayern München has the biggest amount of members of any club around the world in football. Mostly because you only get tickets of Bayern if you are a member and the Allianz Arena is sold out every match. 75k attendance. It's a raffle to get tickets for home or away at Bayern. Like 38k of the 75k are already tickets that are season tickets. So 37k for a match and 5-9k are away fans. So around 28k are for sale per match and they get around 150k-300k requests per match for tickets.

[@adur6400]

I'm a Schalke fan and the reason for the bad results are the costs of mismanagement. The club lost about 200.000.000€ because of terrible contract handling. Now it's 160 mil in debt. But the fans are unbreakable, it's simply a religon. Bayern, Dortmund & Schalke are all three in the top 7 in terms of club members

[@RolandDeschain19]

[@L00pTroop]

Schalke in second devision had the 10th most fans per match day inside the stadium in the world (Note: from known Numbers and statistics which might differ from reality especially in south america). Best support in Germany I would say Dortmund, Schalke, Frankfurt, Stuttgart and Cologne have pretty good, loud and active supporters . But in second and third division there are also really passioned clubs like Dresden, Kaiserlautern, Hamburg, Düsseldorf, Hanover, Hertha BSC. And there some really intens smaller clubs like Karlsruhe, Aachen (last season evem in 4th division good support), Magdeburg and some others which bring really good support and atmosphere into the stadium with maybe . But its hard to this is the best. It depends on if you like volume, or choreos, or pyro or fan chants (with good lyrics) etc. A lot of good clubs over here in Germany 😂 And most people might rate them depending on the Club they support 😂

You can't say the best fans and Ultras, everyone will say ours are the best, that's very subjective. The clubs with the most members are Bayern, Dortmund and Schalke. I'm a BVB supporter because I grew up in the area, I've lived in Berlin for a long time now, but Berlin clubs will never be an option for me. In my opinion, the biggest rivals in German soccer are BVB and Schalke, if only because of the number of fans.

[@HG_Budde]

The favourites are of course the Japanese and the Scots, the Japanese for their cleanliness and, at least at home, going wild and creating the single most orderly chaos I've ever seen.. but simultaneously they would never even have the idea of hurting or insulting anybody, other team or otherwise. The Scots.. because: Yes, they're into the game and in the stabds they give everything they've got, but the real fun begins when the game is over and the only goal they have, is having a good time, getting blind drunk and to pass out in a hedge. No matter if their team won or lost, they somehow always find something worth celebrating; even if it's just the fact that "A Guinness a day keeps the English away". I swear and I will stand by it, if a Scottish football fan got a stray ball to the face and lost all but one teeth, they would give a toast to the remaining one - a toast, mind you, not a round. They are still Scottish after all.. 😆

What I think of Schalke fans? After last season I pitty them a lot for showing up in big numbers every game just to see a bunch of headless chickens running across the field and it was impressive how despite everything so bad, they still showed up hoping "this games will be the turning point". When I saw how badly they did after being religated I watched a few of their matches and concluded "Schalke fans must be masochists or why else would you volunteerly suffer like that every weekend?". Hopefully Schalke is going to put up a better fight next season, even more competition would be bad for my Fortuna it´s the competition in Germany´s 2nd devision which makes it so great so yeah, I hope next season is going to get the heart pumping hard again by big competition 😁 Not worth it making it to the 1st devision when there´s no real competition going on because you just going to get crushed in the top league when it was too easy to get there.

[@philippk.7193]

Your video is relatively complex to comment on, as the answer is multi-layered and you have asked a relatively large number of questions. Firstly, you have to differentiate between clubs with large fan bases, regardless of which subculture they belong to or not. This of course includes Schalke, Dortmund and Bayern. These clubs mobilise a large number of fans due to tradition and/or club success, but this does not mean that they have the strongest subculture groups (Ultras, Hools or Ultras with a Hool orientation). I try to answer the core question as objectively as possible, as I tend to be a fan of a smaller club - but have been to almost every German stadium, including clubs that I personally don't like (for example, many home games in Dortmund and also away games with Dortmund in the visitors' block). Nevertheless, there will of course be many other subjective opinions. Eintracht Frankfurt undoubtedly have the strongest fans. In terms of general support (take a look at Frankfurt in Barcelona), the Ultras and the hooligan scene. In general, however, many clubs have strong Ultra groups, including many in the lower leagues - especially if you consider this in relation to the size of the stadiums. And in general, the Ultra groups are becoming even stronger these days in the lower leagues than in the Bundesliga, due to many relegations of traditional clubs. My ranking would be something like this (based on the strength of the Ultras - not the average attendance): Frankfurt (1. Liga), Rostock (3. Liga), Dresden (3. Liga), Cologne (2. Liga), Schalke (2. Liga), Hertha Berlin (2. Liga), Stuttgart (1. Liga), Kaiserslautern (2. Liga), Dortmund (1. Liga), Bayern (1. Liga), Hamburg (2. Liga), Sankt Pauli (1. Liga), Hannover (2. Liga), Bielefeld (3. Liga), Union Berlin (1. Liga), Jena (4. Liga), Mönchengladbach (1. Liga), Nuremberg (2. Liga), 1860 Munic (3. Liga), Braunschweig (2. Liga), Magdeburg (2. Liga), Duesseldorf (2. Liga), The top 9 of fans with fighting power (hooligan scenes) is relatively easy, as there are official rankings based on fights - In general, hooligans in Germany are also an active part of the fan scene, even if there are parts that only relate to fights and not to active support. But conclusions can be drawn about the strength of the fan scene: 1st Frankfurt, 2nd 1860 Munich (3rd league), 3rd Dresden & Zwickau (3rd league & 4th league), Rostock (3rd league), 5th Mönchengladbach & Union (both 1st league), 6th Lok Leipzig & Halle & Erfurt (all 4th league), 7th Nuremberg (2nd league), 8th Mannheim & Basel (3rd league & Switzerland), 9th Bielefeld (3rd league). This clearly shows that you don't need to look at international fans, the lower leagues usually offer a better experience.
