Bayern Munich fans turn on Pep Guardiola with banner against Darmstadt
Fans of Bundesliga leaders react badly to their manager's departure
Pep Guardiola might have won two Bundelsiga titles, with a third on the way, one DFB-Pokal, as well the UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup, but it seems there is no pleasing some supporters of Bayern Munich.
In what appears to be a rather childish response to their manager's decision not to renew his contract at the club and instead join Manchester City next season, a section of the Bayern Munich fans held up a banner claiming they never really liked him anyway (so there).
The banner, held up in the club's 3-1 win over Darmstadt read: "Pep war eh nie unser ding" - "Pep was never our thing anyway"
The comeback win against Darmstadt, who led 1-0 at half time, ensured Bayern have now won all 11 of their home games this season and moved them 23 points clear of third placed Hertha Berlin and 11 points clear of Borussia Dortmund in second. Still, you can't please everyone.
