Talking Fussball Special Series - The rise and fall of Werder Bremen, part 1
Next season's Bundesliga will feature a Werder Bremen-shaped hole after the storied northern club failed to beat the drop this past May. For plenty of fans of the German game, that's a shame; for Talking Fussball's Nik Wildhagen and Flo Reinecke it's something closer to a tragedy. Both of them are life-long Werder fans, so they naturally have a lot to reflect on at the moment. So much, in fact, that Nik and Flo will be sitting down for a series of chats about their club - the highs and lows of its history, the key figures who built the club up, and what's gone wrong over the last decade. Up first in this episode, a look at the club's beginnings, as well as its rise to great heights in the 80s, 90s and 00s. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
