111 Reasons to Love Hertha BSC - do they even exist? asked the literary agent. For Hertha fan Knut Beyer and co-author Thomas Matzat, this is a question with an element of outrage. Hertha BSC, founding member of the DFB and the Bundesliga, two-time German champion, an object of desire for passionate and crazy fans, a reflection of German history - and no reasons to love this club? In the meantime, each of these thoughts has become its own little story, which is more than just the heartfelt passion of a fan who has lived and breathed Hertha for decades. The book is also a journey through 120 years of club history, which is inextricably linked to Berlin's history. However, the focus is always on the games, players, and "ordinary" people who personally crossed Knut's path or about whom he heard from others.
