The Daily Bee: Brandt Joins the Exit Crew
Good morning, Fear the Wall. One of the more surprising pieces of new to come out of the Dortmund camp this weekend regarded the contract extension of Julian Brandt, or rather the non-extension, as we now know.

Bundesliga Open Thread: Matchday 25
The weekend’s action kicks off tonight with Bayern Munich facing a side they’ve made a habit of struggling against: Borussia Mönchengladbach. Predicting Ball doesn’t see it being close, though. The model gives Bayern Munich an 85% win probability, and predicts that they will put up a whopping 3.05 expected goals, compared to Die Fohlen’s project […]
The Daily Bee: Schlotterbeck Decision Soon?
Welcome to BVB purgatory folks. Any hope for trophies is over and Champions League qualification is essentially guaranteed, so there’s essentially nothing to do except talk about what might happen this summer and next season. I encourage you all to read Paddy’s article on the next steps BVB should take. The biggest story right now […]
What’s Next for Borussia Dortmund?
Dortmund entered the final week of February with plenty of momentum. Six successive Bundesliga victories and an undefeated streak in domestic competition since December 2nd saw Dortmund only six points behind Bayern Munich with a looming Der Klassiker. Abroad, a convincing win over Atalanta in the Champions League signaled that Dortmund could make a run […]
The Daily Bee: Manchester City Eyeing a Move for Felix Nmecha
If you are monitoring the football news, you can see when a team’s season is effectively over just based on the headlines. Everything switches to a focus on the summer. Now we’re done with all this silly football business, we can focus on the only part of the season that matters: the transfer window. BVB […]
The Daily Bee: Well, That’s That Then.
Good morning, Fear the Wall. Welcome to the end of the season. Borussia Dortmund have been knocked out of the Champions League, and fallen 11 points behind Bayern Munich in first place.

Post-Match Reaction: Borussia Dortmund Falls at Home to Bayern Munich
It’s all but official: Borussia Dortmund’s 2025/26 season will end without a trophy.

Instead, Dortmund find themselves 11 points behind a dominant Bayern Munich side with […]
MOTM (Not a) Poll: BVB Fall Short Against Bayern Munich

Bundesliga Open Thread: Matchday 24
Borussia Dortmund fans are focused on one game only this weekend. More through a sense of dread than anticipation. The Saturday evening slot sees BVB face Bayern Munich, and while the title race is all but over, it’s hard not to treat this game as bigger than the rest. But there is more Bundesliga football […]
Match Preview: Der Klassiker with Little to Lose

Should BVB not be the victor this Saturday: Congratulations to Bayern Munich on their bajillionth Meisterschaft. Even if the Black and Yellows do find a way to claim all […]
The Daily Bee: Post-Bergamo Quotes
They thought they could get away with it, sneaking in a Champions League disaster right before facing Bayern, so we all get distracted and forget about it quickly. Aha! I caught them. They thought they were being clever, but I haven’t forgotten. We’ll have all next week to talk about whatever happens tomorrow at the […]
Post-Match Reactions: Defensive Errors Dump Dortmund Out of the Champions League
If there’s one thing you can say for Borussia Dortmund, it’s that they don’t half ass anything. Unfortunately, that includes defensive collapses that end their Champions League campaign. BVB certainly whole assed their way out of Europe, giving up a two-goal first leg advantage over Atalanta by losing 4-1 in the return leg. Atalanta certainly […]
MOTM (Not a) Poll: Ain’t That a Kick in the Head
Ugh. Last weekend, the Bundesliga title race ended, all but officially. Today, Borussia Dortmund’s Champions League campaign ended. Officially. Despite going into the match with a 2-0 aggregate lead, Dortmund crapped the bed under pressure, with defensive miscue after defensive miscue from every single member of the back line, which I’m sure whichever cursed individual […]

Match Preview: BVB Travel to Atalanta Up Two Goals
Last week, Borussia Dortmund gave their Champions League ambitions a huge boost with a 2-0 win against Atalanta at home at the Westfalenstadion. Now, they must finish the job and shepherd out an aggregate win away in Bergamo, with anything closer than a two-goal defeat guaranteeing a trip to the Champions League Round of 16. […]
The Daily Bee: BVB Ultras’ Bergamo Boycott
The Daily Bee comes to you a little late tonight because I had a busy day at work followed by getting too engrossed in the Inter Milan vs FK Bodø/Glimt game. Bodø/Glimt have been one of the best stories of the Champions League this season, giving a great account of themselves in the league phase, […]
The Daily Bee: Losing Ground
Good morning, Fear the Wall. This is a grueling week for BVB, with ramifications that will determine how the season finishes out. A perfect English week would see BVB defeat RB Leipzig, advance past Atalanta in the Champions League, and defeat Bayern Munich at the Westfalenstadion to reignite the title race. BVB stumbled out of […]
