In 1904 a group of young miners from Gelsenkirchen got together to play football. They had very little money, no kit to wear, no ball to play with. They didn’t even have a pitch to play on. This book tells the story of how the club they formed grew to become Schalke 04, one of the biggest, wealthiest and best-known sporting organisations in the world. It describes the lives of famous players, takes a look at Schalke’s passionate fans, and explains why the club is so important to its town and region. There is also plenty of practical information for anyone thinking of coming to see a game or wanting to follow Schalke from afar.
