Bundesliga fixtures 2008/2009?

I doubt anybody will know the answer, but...

Does anybody know when the fixtures for next year's Bundesliga are announced? Want to book a trip to Cologne, but not until I know there'll be a game on that weekend.

I've looked myself and found nothing.

The new Fixture list will be drawn up and announced on the 1st of July. The DFL will most likely televise the draw live on TV. That's how they have been doing it in Italy for the last few seasons.

The season starts on the 15th of August with Bayern playing the opening game in Munich (as the reigning champions).

Didn't wanna make a new thread for this, but wondering when fixtures for the Belgian league will be released. Heading over to Brussels in mid-August and wanna go to a game. Google wasn't much help.

I might be making a trip to Köln too if you're interested, have my eye on the away match in Berlin at the end of November too, tickets should be easy enough to get for it.

Hmmm, was hoping to go in September but the only home games are against Bayern and Schalke. Dunno if I'd get tickets for them.

Is there any channel that shows the Bundesliga regularly?

Here's a good list of friendly club matches throughout Europe for July and August. In case anyone is interested.

Yeah, they'd be fairly impossible to get tickets for unless you were actually buying them from a ticket shop in Köln on the day they go onsale. On the other hand you could try booking them from the club themselves, I don't know how good your German is but here's the link.
You brink Id and your print off and can pick them up from the stadium from 2.5 hours before the game

There's no links on it yet to buy anything though.

Cheers for the friendlies list too, have a ticket for Hertha v Liverpool on the 22nd. 9.50 all in, should be class!

Setanta show a live match on Sunday, sometimes on Friday evening and a few other matches either 'as live' or highlights.

I envy you. I had great plans for that one til I realised our local club is opening their Clubhouse the same night. As the Secretary it is my job to be there and get very drunk that night.
