A slightly impromptu episode, featuring an article written a few months back. Inspired by SC Cham and Zug 94's progression into the next round of the Swiss Cup, it felt like a good time to revisit the whole thing.

A trip to Winterthur and Schützi turns into a reflection on industrialisation, false-dawns, and a refusal to accept defeat. There's also just enough time for some football talk amongst it all.

Round 33 is done and the league now splits into the top and bottom 6 sides. Who will be happy with where they're at, and who will be asking serious questions about what has gone wrong? We also preview and predict the upcoming Swiss Cup semi-finals, as well as the semi-finals of the Women's Super League playoffs. Who will be competing for the titles as Swiss football begins the final run-in to the end of the season?

A couple of flying visits to the canton of St Gallen allowed us to take in the Lidl Arena (Stadion Bergholz) in Wil, and Kybunpark in St Gallen itself. Two vastly different stadiums, but two fantastic experiences.

Who had the best transfer window in Switzerland? Who had the worst? Why are there so many Freimanns in Luzern? Just how competitive is the Swiss game right now? What on earth is going on at FC Givisiez? The answers to all these questions (and more) can be found within.

Have you ever wondered who the worst team, statistically, in Swiss football is? Well wonder no longer: I've delved into the depths of the amateur game to bring you a concrete answer to this pressing enquiry. We'll also discuss the successes and strugglers of the higher ends of the game - and the current runners for the Player of the Season - as Swiss football heads into its Winter break, but that's all a bit dull in comparison, no?

FC Biel/Bienne, FC Thun, and FC Basel have all found themselves, for one reason or another, cast adrift in recent years. This season, all three are in a position to reclaim some of that glory. I take a look at the journeys of each side and consider whether they'll be able to achieve the kind of success that has been held cruelly out of reach.
