Har vel skrevet litt om dem på forumet før, men huska ikke heilt ka, så her e noen kjappe klipp og lim bita :
The club was also able to turn the location of its ground in the dock area part of town St. Pauli near Hamburg's famous Reeperbahn - centre of the city's nightlife and its red-light district - to its advantage. An alternative fan scene emerged built around left-leaning politics and the "event" and party atmosphere of the club's matches. Supporters adopted the skull and crossbones as their own unofficial emblem. Importantly, St. Pauli became the first team in Germany to officially ban rightwing, nationalist activities and displays in its stadium in an era when fascist inspired football hooliganism threatened the game across Europe.
FC St. Pauli enjoy certain fame for the left leaning character of its supporters: most of the team's fans regard themselves as anti-racist, anti-fascist and anti-sexist, and this has on occasion brought them into conflict with neo-Nazis and hooligans at away games. The organization has taken up an outspoken stance against racism, fascism, sexism, and homophobia and has embodied this position in its constitution.
St. Pauli opens its home matches with AC/DC's Hells' Bells, and after every home goal Song 2 by Blur is played, turning the stadium into a giant mosh pit.
Har tatt med mest om supporteran og atmosfæren rundt klubben, sida det va det som fikk mæ til å begynn å legg merke til dem i starten. Når det gjeld selve fotballen, så har klubben noen sesonga i Bundesliga bak sæ (bla. med Tore Pedersen på laget på midten av 90-tallet), men spella nu i regionalliga nord, som tilsvar norsk 2. divisjon. Etter en fin siste halvdel av sesongen leda de imidlertidig serien, og bør ha en god sjans på å rykk opp.St. Pauli is very proud of having what is probably the last non-electronic scoreboard in the upper leagues. After every goal, a worker manually updates the scoreboard by taking down and then replacing a number placard.
