S4E4 Borussia Dortmund: Terry Duffelen on the love of a football club
Borussia Dortmund is one of Europe’s most celebrated football clubs. Its story is one of tenacity, rule-breaking and of fighting the power. As a German club you might find it unusual to discover that one of the club’s biggest supporters is a bloke from Croydon.
Terry Duffelen fell in love with Borussia Dortmund some years ago, and co-founded the long-running Yellow Wall, Borussia Dortmund podcast. He's also just released his debut book Borussia Dortmund: A history in black and yellow.
In this episode we explore why football, and sport in general, is one of the perfect narratives, we unpack the difference between writing the history and a history of a subject, and we discuss the fear and excitement that’s involved in releasing your work out into the wild for the first time.
