Seems to me that the biggest threat is corporate money and influence.

This is so repugnant that SCOTUS would even have the ability to do this. Weapons manufacturers have more rights than we do.

Absolutely. This is collective bargaining 101. Look at the historic UAW strike of 2023 and what they asked for at the start. Discounting that it was the first trilateral strike against the big three automakers union history, they asked for an historic amount of benefits and workplace changes.

-46% pay increase over contract duration

-Restoration of pension

-Retiree healthcare

-Healthcare benefits for all

-Cost of living adjustments

-End to the wage tiers system that divides the laborers into different "classes" of workers

-32-hour workweek with no loss in pay

If you don't go for audacious, you will get far less than you need.

They got:

-25% pay increase in wages over the 4.5 year contract, 11% at outset

-Cost of living adjustments

-$5k bonus

-Elimination of the tiered wage system (Fucking huge)

If they never went to bat for the audacious, they never would have gotten the tiered system removed. Now they have far more solidarity and collective bargaining power for the next negotiation. All because of audacious demands and striking unilaterally across the big three.

This is just one contract negotiation and strike. Much work to still be done.

They asked for 77% pay raises over 6 years and negotiated for 62%. This is a decent deal. Any victory for labor is a victory for all our us. Sure there is still a lot of work to be done, but this is a win.

Congrats to the longshoremen!

Yeah that'll fix it's completely broken search.

Fuck Judge Schelp. What a monster.

 
 

Eintracht is backing out of negotiations now that Wolfsburg has made a better offer to PAOK for left centerback Koulierakis. Eintracht has cast a wider net in the past few days for a left center back, so all is not lost. Really puts the team in a pickle regardless. That is the longest non-signing I've seen in some time.

 

The tour was successful for Eintracht as they played two friendlies in two countries abroad. Louisville was an interesting choice for the club, being that the Kentucky club is in the second division of US soccer. Nonetheless the facilities were great and the fans showed up. It doesn't hurt to have a World Cup game winning goal player on your team. There was definitely draw specifically for him, but the club's draw was still larger.

Now all three of the 24/25 Bundesliga trikots are unveiled for the Eintracht. This away kit attempts to rock the boat the least. It is a black kit with a red Eintracht crest, with two red tusks flanking the neck. As with the others, the kit features the small localization flourishes, "Hier regiert de SGE" and "Im Herzen von Europa". The kit is already being criticized as looking like last year's training kit, but for €90. The U21, Frauen, and Männer will play in these kits.

The last kit to be revealed is the European kit, this will be the last kit featuring with a Nike emblem as the team moves to Adidas in the 25/26 season.

 

Along with Felix Uduokai, Eintracht is looking at a wider list of candidates to fill Pacho's spot, at least in the short term. Left center-back Bernardo from Bochum is on the list. The left-footed 29 year old has a Transfermarkt price of €5.5M.

Also on Krösche's list for consideration: Armel-Bella Kotchap at Southampton. The right-footed 22 year old center-back has a €12M price at Transfermarkt.

From Bild: Suddenly new defense candidates at Eintracht:

After the departure of W.P. to PSG, Eintracht need a new IV. Desired candidate K. Koulierakis from PAOK.

Shortening: Because of CL-qualification and the "difficult president" of PAOK, they are looking elsewhere, as Toppi demands early reinforcement. Should PAOK pass against Malmö, the play-offs on 20 & 27.08. are only.

No quick solution in sight at the moment.

As Bild learned and also shortened: Bernardo from Bochum (29 / contract 2026) and Armel-Bella Kotchap FCS (22/2026) is Eintracht's turn. ABK also traded VFB and TSG.

Plus Eintracht has inquired about Felix Uduokhai.

 

PAOK and Eintracht have not reached an agreement on Koulierakis. Eintracht is looking at other options. Augsburg left center-back Felix Uduokai is getting some consideration. Per Transfermarkt: a left foot with one year left on his contract, he'd reportedly cost Eintracht €5-6 million dollars. Uduokai has expressed a desire to leave Augsburg. Per Transfermarkt: Hoffenheim, Lille, and Besiktas are said to also be interested in Uduokai.

Per Transfermarkt: PAOK seems to want Koulierakis around for the Champions League qualifiers, and has requested a price of around €15M for Koulierakis.

ARTICLE TRANSLATION: Eintracht Frankfurt are now looking into a move for Felix Uduokhai.

The 26-year-old left-footed central defender from FC Augsburg wants to move in August and only has one year left on his contract. FCA has been informed of this and will release him if a suitable offer is made.

No agreement yet on Koulierakis.

There is still no contact between Eintracht Frankfurt and Augsburg, but talks are ongoing between the SGE and the player's side.

Uduokhai is interesting for Eintracht because he is experienced and knows the Bundesliga. He is also in top shape and ready for action. In addition, there is still no agreement with PAOK Thessaloniki regarding the transfer of Konstantinos Koulierakis.

Eintracht and PSG are shaking hands once again on a transfer deal. Willian Pacho, who played for Eintracht for one whole season, moves to Paris for €40 million plus bonuses. Eintracht signed Pacho in the summer of 2023 from Royal Antwerp FC for 9 million. Good bit of business clearing €31 million. Koulierakis at PAOK is widely seen as the replacement for Pacho, but while the club and Koulierakis are in agreement, the deal has not been finished. Stuttgart is attempting to sign him before Eintracht, supposedly.

Max also leaves the Eintracht and is moving to Greece to play for Panathinaikos in Athens for €1 million.

Say what you will about Nike, I've loathed them for most of their time spent with Eintracht. Their templates are look like they are made of scraps. The flocking is so thin, it oxidizes and falls off rather quickly. They are the definition of fast-fashion planned obsolescence. The home kit this year is no exception and it was met widely with negative criticism, the Marlboro kit. Sure it might be another remix of a retro kit, but it looks like design by committee. The new third trikot is a remix on the orange 81/82 - 82/83 kits. TBH, I think it would be nicer without the darker orange stripes and retain the black piping for the shoulders, but all-in-all, I like it.

The Droogs are gonna enjoy this!

It is a safe, classic look, kind of like the black bundesliga kit from last year. What are your thoughts?

 

The team will travel to Louisville, a 12 hour travel time, and practice before heading on another plane to Juarez to play a friendly there against the Bravos. Notable in the article that Eintracht is being paid a "nice 6 figure sum" for the friendly in Juarez. I wonder if we'll see Marco Fabián on this trip.

Then the team comes back to Louisville for more practice and a friendly against LouCity. I'll be in attendance!

Then the team travels to New York City for some more practice and press/marketing interviews before heading back to Frankfurt.

Done deal. Eintracht brings on right back Dane Rasmus Kristensen on a one year loan from Leeds United. The 27 year old comes with experience at Ajax, RB Salzburg, Leeds United, and AS Roma. The purchase option is reportedly set at around €18 million.

FCN: Nnamdi Collins is also expected to join (www-liga--zwei-de.translate.goog)

Nnamdi Collins looks to be headed to Nürnberg on a one year loan with no purchase option. Considering the needs of a back four, not so sure this is a good idea especially as defenders can be prone to injury. Last year, Collins showed well with his late season appearances and looked to be making a push for a regular spot on the roster. A one year loan could get him more minutes and experience though. Interesting development.
