It's October in Germany and it turns out we only thought of Oktoberfest after the fact.

So, while the beer flows and the games come thick and fast in the Bundesliga, the goals have dried up with this week proving a tough one for both Frankfurt and Augsburg. And yes, Robbie's on "holiday" as Koln go on autopilot for a few days.

We've put October to the test though and while Ken's trying to find his way in the Champions League, Shane's trying to get any manner of a response out of his forward line. The common denominator this week though seems that injuries are mounting up faster than either of us would have anticipated with Frankfurt stacking up seven first-team injuries.

The wheels certainly haven't come off, but they're starting to squeak and it's looking like we'll need a minor miracle to survive the Bundesliga.
