FC St. Pauli

Hamburg · Millerntor-Stadion

A Hamburg club with an openly left-wing, anti-fascist supporter culture that has made it a global cult side, with a following far larger than its results would suggest.

What to know before you follow them

St. Pauli’s politics are not incidental, they are the point, and the club states them openly. Results are secondary and the club is candid that it cannot compete financially.

The colours and the crowd

What people sing

  • Hells Bells

    The AC/DC track that plays as the team comes out at the Millerntor. Loud, and not remotely subtle.

  • Das Herz von St. Pauli

    An old Hamburg song about the district itself rather than the football club, which tells you where the loyalty actually sits.

Who the rivals are

  • Hamburger SV

    The other Hamburg club, and the opposite of St. Pauli in almost every way its supporters care about.

Following them from America

Small but unusually committed, and far larger than the club's results would explain. The American following came for the politics rather than the football, which makes it a different kind of crowd from most.
