THREE teams are still battling it out
Schalke, as so often choked, despite being in pole-position and "only" playing Bochum
Bremen were given YET ANOTHER lifeline; a win would have put them on top
opponents Bielefeld had not read the script and even a Klose goal could not save Werder
meanwhile, Stuttgart, "nobody's" dark-horse , frankly, are quietly banking them points, game after game after game after game after ...
and have overtaken Bremen this weekend to land second place
Schalke, Stuttgart and Bremen are separated by a point each
EVERYTHING to play for
still, Schalke under novice manager Slomka (his first complete Bundesliga season in charge) are losing their nerves; they also still face arch-enemy Dortmund and gnarly Nuernberg
Bremen under Schaaf look completely lost, steadfastly refusing to convert all those assists Schalke produce
Stuttgart, without the pressure, are now the favourites
therefore
SACK SCHAAF
GET Schuster
and THREE CHEERS to STuttgart, the stingy Swabians
