In the penultimate episode of series one, James speaks to Werner Wolf, president of Bundesliga club Cologne, and Sandra Schwedler, chairwoman of St. Pauli's supervisory board, about how the pandemic changed life in the boardroom. Both discuss working with change, the need for support and whether football can learn from this unprecedented time.

In the third episode of the first series of Project Fussball, James speaks to former Sportfreunde Lotte, Bochum and Hallescher FC head coach Ismail Atalan (2:29) and SC Sand head coach Nora Häuptle (19:08). Both coaches shed light on what it's like to coach during the pandemic, the challenges and changes to the job and whether they think coaching will be different in the future.

In the second episode of Project Fussball, James is joined by former Bundesliga player and current analyst Thomas Broich to discuss how football itself has changed during the pandemic. What are the tactical trends, how different is the game and what does so much football in a pandemic mean for the future of the sport in Germany?

The very first episode of Project Fussball explores how COVID-19 has affected German football fans.
