[HattonTheHammer]

only chance haye would of had of winning this is if they`d held it inside a london phonebox

What a poor city to choose for the fight, what is there to do there anyone know

[fugaziuk]

There are flights to dusseldorf from leeds-bradford for around £50 - and its about an hours train ride from airport to venue. think im gonna try and make this with ticket and hotel should be around £200 - much cheaper than going to see hatton

Looking at stuff on the web - seems Gelsenkirchen used to be a huge industrial town in ww2 and has suffered great amounts of unemployment since (the highest in germany!) - plus used to be the venue for a concentration camp!! so great if you are into history but it seems the football club is all the city has to offer - what a strange place to hold the fight!

its as if they want to deter us Brits from going....

some of my mates have assured me it is one of the best footie grounds in europe - just the surroundings are not the best

Yeah same here. Best ground (stadium) they have ever been to.
