There's a Glasgow FC St. Pauli supporters club starting in January I think. A few mates-funnily enough all into football and all Leftists/republicans-aregoing over for a weekend a few weeks later.
so you want to keep up with the team or their fans? why not just join an anti-fascist forum instead - without the fotoball
Surprised. And they were horrible which is good

Well the punks that I know do have an interest in football. Mostly Spurs and Celtic fans that make the journey over.
But if someone who knows fuck all about football wants to get behind what St Pauli stand for they by wearing a shirt or a badge or whatever then wheres the harm in that? Its a shame you feel the need to cynically shit on something that is essentially a positive anti-racist statement just because they don't "know the game". Have you been to a premiership match lately? I was talking to a solicitor who had a season ticket at Arsenal the other day who had no idea who Perry Groves, Eddie McGoldrick or MICHAEL THOMAS was. Belittle that guy and his ilk first.

Do St Pauli have nice legs then?
Some people 'support' man united becasue they are what we on the grange end would refer to as 'glory hunters'. Unless I have missed something, i dont think there is a lot of glory to be had with st pauli.
Now there may be some that follow man u cos of beckhams legs, which is just shallow, but surely if someone is just interested becasue they want to show solidarity with anti-fascists, is that really in the same category as oggling legs? I dont think so myself.

Why would you bother to help someone who doesn't really sound interested in the team
i bet youre a right bag of laughs down the pub -
this is a football board on a political forum ,someone asking about St Pauli isn't exactly taking a liberty is it ?
do you like prawn sarnies on the quiet ?

Silly? maybe!
criminal? no!
Something worth getting wound up about? personally i have more serious things to worry about than getting all elitest about football.
I dont personally know of anyone that follows St Pauli, have seen hoodies about at festivals but not stopped them and tested them on thier football knowledge. Now that i have the link to the result site though I will be able to ask them what they think of 'our' chances of promotion are

In order to share my own experience with you. Firstly its not a choice between crustys and Nazis. Most young SP fans are antifascists, often politicalluy active outside football as well, but increasingly few are punks. IME young punks SP fans aren't regular attendees at games and when it is more for the party drinking reputation then the political one. The yound active political fans are growing in strenght and nuimber, nut are turning against the punk stereotype, and there are two reasons for this.
-Firstly the lefty punk days of st pauli were about a decade ago, and it was also typified by british style support back then (which was considered by many st pauli fans to be the best support in europe)- singing at certain times of the game, not many flags, and no drums etc. There was also more links with british clubs because of this. With worsening atmosphere at St Pauli games however, it led to the inevitable setting up of singing sections and finally the grouping Ultra' Sankt Pauli, who as you can guess take their lead from Italy rather then the UK and as a result the British punk thing is seen as a bit outdated by younger active Ultra orientated fans.
-Secondly the fame of St Pauli and its position in the party and red light district and the connection to punk attracted as I have described a load of alcoholic 'partygoers' to St pauli games. And I dont mean drunken fans having a good time. I mean actual people that look ike they have a serious alcohol problem and need help, in their mid 40's. Now this isn't a great problem as far as im concerned except when they do stuff that really shows up the club. Example:
After an away game in Leverkusen we were on the train back to Cologne for the carnival. Some aging alcoholic 'Pauli fans' from cologne were in the same carriage and singing, so far so good, until the train stops at dusseldorf and one of them (showing his actual allegiance to 1FC Cologne) bellows in the face of a 20 something commuter gorl with obviously no interest in football, but getting off at Dusseldorf so obviously fair game in the idiots eyes, "shit fortuna, shit fotuna, shit fortuna dusseldorf" covering her in alcohol laced phlegm. He does all this in st pauli gear. So SP gets a bad reputation through multiple stuff like this of being a club of alcoholic wankers rather then left wing actual fans.
This gets on the young actual fans' goat and so the tendency of the young active left supporter is now towards Ultra and against punk and even alcohol with many ultras just smoking weed, or even being straight edge. You'd still be accepted if you were a punk obviously and many are, just as long as youre not an idiot with it and care about the club, support and game.
There thats all the help you'll get from me.
The tanks someone referred to were probably these armoured cars at the Dresden game following the promotion on the penultimate game of 2006/2007 season. St Pauli fans like to have a ruck when ity comes to the fash but it doesnt really require this type of armour, the police just like to overegg whatever is going on to earn overtime, justify budgets, justify fan/left wing repression, paint st pauli fans in a bad light and play with their new toys:

And it is much appreciated, all interesting stuff.
Sadly, I dont think St pauli are unique for this sort of problem.

For someone who's mouthing off about having to be statto off fantasy football league to even watch the game, the comparison you use above is woeful.
Showing support for a relatively tiny lower league team in Germany for their followers anti-racist stance is the same as having an interest in one of the biggest sporting brands on earth because one of the players years ago had nice legs?!?
If you fucking say so Einstein.

yep. so why the intrest in st pauli?
shit team in a shit league with brillient marketing that lots of poeple who know nothing about football like, cos of thier politics.
St pauli fans generally piss me off. They do make an ace toaster though.
dave
Oh my lord! That is a quality toaster.
I've not heard anything about St Pauli - what's the coup? Isn't it just a small district of Hamburg where all the strip clubs are?
Prawn sarnies are neither a political or a class statement

Bring back hanging
On the contrary they are both. Esp, what 7 years later. They are horrible as well.
They have a football team whose colours are a useful thing to wear if you want to tell everyone how not-racist you are whilst avoiding doing anything useful yourself
