Ahh, so it only seems like 8,000. I was mapping out cities I’d heard of in my textbook and it seemed like they were all in that direction. So only 4 in the first two divisions…not even as bad as London. How many are Westphalian in general? That area always seemed to be heavily represented.

And yes, I can’t see Dortmund or Schalke fans agreeing to support one club…

Bochum is one of the few teams that make me laugh harder than Hertha. So here’s to hoping you win. (AHAHAHAHA Bochum.)

4 out of 5 Ruhr Valley clubs are playing in the Bundesliga, while Essen is currently in the third division. Experts say this agglomeration of cities will melt into one megacity sooner or later, so this could help clean up the situation a bit, though it’ll be difficult to join Dortmund and Schalke fans and have them root for one club, so probably this city will still need at least two clubs.
