Yes clubs usually take a huge financial hit from being relegated. The second division (in England at least) is also a very different proposition. More games played and it’s a much more physical league. Some teams go down to the second division and stay there for decades, some go down and come right back up, and some can slip down 3 divisions in 5 years. I’ve even seen teams that you’d expect to come right back up be stuck in the second division for 5 years or so. And yea you’ll see a lot of tears when a team gets relegated, that’s why people are so connected to their clubs, you really go through stuff.

[@Tomas1999Benfica]

The domestic cup competitions are so great. Imagine if your local pickup basketball team could play against the Lakers. And once in a while, these random local amateur teams would actually beat a professional team (usually a G league type of team, but still). Relegation is also just great. No playing for draft picks. No benching your best players to avoid injury. Every player is fighting for their lives. Usually in their contract they will have clauses that make them take a pay cut if the team is relegated, so these guys are playing to keep food on the table for themselves! You want to keep that sweet car you just bought? Want to keep paying the mortgage on your new house? Better not get relegated!

Last games of the season are an absolut thriller when teams involved try to avoid relegation. Usually in every league, 3-4 teams have to fight till the last minute of the last game to stay in the league. It's often quite more entertaining than title fight, which are usually decided 3-4 games before the league ends. For a lot of teams, avoiding relegation is like winning a title. It's the beauty of this sport, it's not just a matter of winning titles, it's something bigger than that. Every game and detail counts

The financial loss is very severe. E.g. Schalke 04 is a German Club that recently got relegated. To compensate for that loss they had to shut down or sell other divisions of their "Franchise" a.k.a. teams playing in other sports. They even sold their eSports division so they could survive financially

[@Shinobito1]

Depends on a country/league, but there are many divisions. I come from Poland, so I will give you example from my country. We have 8/9 divisions. Divisions 1-3 are called central divisions, but starting with 4th division, there are groups in that division. Ex. in 4th division there are 4 groups, more in 5th etc. They are called then regional divisions, where regional associations decide upon groups and they go down to 8th division with some 9th divisions in some county-equivalents. And yes, as long as you do well enough you can progress from 8th division up to 1st. It is almost impossible though, because you would need a lot of money, and lower divisions are purely amatoure clubs. Yes, you can gather 11 friends, one coach, make some shirts, decide upon your colours, symbols, organize yourself a pitch (you could even make a deal with local school for that), send all required documents to your local football association, and there you go - you have an official team in official league.

Football pitch is waaay bigger but the thing is that in basketball you have both teams running up and down the whole time, whereas in football, players that are away from the ball can be more static. But a basketball match only lasts the half of a football match and there is a constant rotation of the playes that play. You should also watch a video that discribes the actual rules of a match MAD LOVE FROM GREECE BROTHERS

[@auto98]

Footballers run much further in a game than in basketball, around 10k per match. A surprising amount of that is spent sprinting, an awful lot of it isn't noticed because it is off the ball and comes to nothing (the ball isn't passed to them, for example)

[@NunoLokko]

These are some of the ways European teams make money (I will not list everything): --> Members - Fans that pay a monthly fee to support the team; --> Selling players; --> Playing the Uefa Champions League --> Sponsorship from brands; --> TV rights paid by the league; The last two play a huge role in relegation. Brands want visibility, so if you drop to a minor league, even if they keep the sponsorship they will renegotiate the contract to pay you less money. Second division has less TV time and interest, you will get less money to play on that league. Oh, yes. Don't forget about the tickets... your stadium seats will have less value as well.

Relegation makes the football league system more of a meritocracy. In theory, a new football club can join an amateur league and over many years, gradually fight their way up, through promotion, to higher and higher leagues and eventually become overall champions. The reality is not as simple as this, of course but at least the possibility exists. For the leagues below the top division, fighting for promotion and to escape relegation is every bit as exciting as the competition in the top division. Plus, the leagues are different every year.

[@averagebeastt3606]

The best thing about the relegation and promotion system in the League's is it gives the 2nd division teams a chance to generate more talent from the youth players. The league is always exciting every start of the season because of the newly promoting teams/players/managers.. Not to mention the Cup games and Champions League games in between. System like this have allowed teams that have come from the very bottom division, earn promotion and even win the the top flight league. Nottingham Forrest are a good example, In 1978 they earned promotion and the very first season won the league. One of the rare few that have managed to accomplish that to this day.

[@albinjohnsson2511]

The 3 points thing: well in soccer ties are relatively common, and actually, just defending is much easier. At the start of the game you're 0-0 and it's not uncommon that's also the result at the end. You can see this in some combat sports, where fighters must attack or they get a penalty for being too passive. In soccer, the same result you get by awarding a win with 3 points. This way a team (usually the strongest) is motivated in risking and being on the attack. Relegations: yes being relegated can usually be a huge financial hit, due to lower attendances, TV rights, and also less income from sponsors for being in a lower league. That said, life in a lower league is easier, you can sell a few players, reduce the total salary cost, and still have a team strong enough to attempt a promotion back to the upper league. A country has as many divisions as necessary to accomodate for the pro teams it has, which can be a large number, say in Italy. There used to be semi-pro division below pro divisions, and amateurs divisions below that, but today it's pro or amateurs (players who don't get a salary for playing). Also, the player market is open. Time restricted, but no team gets to pick first. And yes some teams managed to win their national top league, their national cup, and the Champion League the same year. Since you have to end very high in standings to qualify for the Champion League, there's also a sister tournament for runner ups (teams that barely missed the CL qualification). It's still a quite prestigious trophy, the Europa League. Just for fun (although there's technically a trophy) the CL winner and the EL winner have a match to see who's the best.

[@maarius030]

Oh man don’t get me start at this. So I’m gonna use German football for example because I’m from Germany and I know the most about the German leagues. So there is professional football. In Germany there are 3 professional leagues. 1st, 2nd and 3rd division. (Sometimes it’s different, for example England has 4 professional leagues). After the 3 professional leagues there come like “regional leagues”. Leagues which you only play against teams from your Region not from the whole nation. So there are more leagues at the same stage. In 4th division in Germany there are 5 leagues, so the German map gets split in 5 parts and every of these parts has his own league. The winners of these 5 leagues fight in a weird relegation system with a play off game for the spots in the third league. After the 5x 4th leagues there comes the 5th league, 6th league, 7th league, 8th league, etc. The regional parts become smaller as lower the division. So when you play in a very very low league you’re probably gonna play against teams just from your city. In Germany there are. Altogether there are over 2000 leagues just in Germany with over 30000 clubs. But at some point in the lowest leagues you literally just ply for fun. There probably gonna play 40 year old fat men which are drunk while playing. In these low leagues they don’t have real training aswell and if they don’t want to play they just don’t arrive to the game. So it’s very very unprofessional. Looking at the money: if you play in the 1st league in Germany the possibility to become a millionaire aren’t that low. If you play in the 4th league you already have to get a real job besides football because you probably just going to earn some hundred euros. To really make a living with football you gotta play in one of the 3 highest leagues. There are so many clubs btw because everyone could found a club if they want to. There are no school or college teams. And there’s not just one team per city. For example there are currently 5 clubs from London, 2 clubs from Liverpool and 2 clubs from Manchester in the 1st English division. And i don’t even wanna know how many London clubs there are in the lower leagues. In Germany as Berlin is the capital city and the largest city its the city with the most football clubs in germany. There are like 400 clubs here. Coming to the club structure: there’s the senior team, the team which plays in the senior leagues. You have to be at least 16 years old and the oldest professional footballer players are like 40 years old. These are the teams and leagues y’all know. Then as there are no school or college teams, every club has youth teams. From teams for the 6 year olds to teams for the 21 year olds (which could play in the senior teams but most of the times they aren’t good enough yet). In Berlin if you drive for just 10min you’re probably going to see like 5 football fields of the lower teams. Btw the low teams in general have no chance to really become successful (without an investor). It’s quiet impossible to go from the 8th league to the 1st league in like less than 30 years cause you just don’t have the money. Most of the times these teams just have a couple of fans. Rarely some hundreds. While the top teams have sometimes over 100000 fans.

[@yannicklaisne5436]

Quite accurate but simplified. In each countries, there are usually from 3 to 6 levels for professional teams. Under them, there are the amateurs divisions but if they can do well they can climb on the ladders but at some points the club MUST get a professional status or they're blocked and can't get promoted. About relegation, if a promoted club is also kicked out for any reason (usually financial...), it's forbid to be promoted and one of the relegated team from the higher level is saved and stays in the top league. more and more, instead of the three relegated teams, now the bottom two are relegated and the third gets a last chance to stay on a play off match, usually against the 3rd of the lower league. About the football season, it's usually august-may except for Scandinavia and the countries on the Russian area where they play between march and October for climatic reason.

You lose a lot of revenue, a LOT! 2. The value of the players automatically dropped and you can’t sell them for a good price. 3. What about the contracts ? Now things get really tricky. Some contracts are Just for the First division, that means when you got kicked out of the league, you will lose that player for free and the player can choose his next club by his own and the club will get absolutely nothing, not matter how long his contract is.

And the team will lose a lot of their normal Revenue? know imagine having a player who earns like 15 Millionen a year and he have a 3 year Contract left. So you have to pay this Player a total of 45 Millionen ( you have to know that European contracts are most guaranteed). So basically you have to pay that player that much money without knowing when you will play in the first division again, and their are not something like trades or something, if a player wants to play until the end of his contract, he have the right to do that. So when you are the Club Manager you will say „okay we will sell him for a good price“ well, that’s not so easy. Imagine that player earns a lot of money and because of the fact that the Value of the player drops a lot because of the Relegation he will most likely not get that much money at a other club, in combination with the fact that you Have as a club way less money to spend in the Second division because of the Dropped Revenue, you have a REALLY REALLY REAAAALLLY big problem. And that was just the case with one player, and in a soccer team their a basically like 25-30 players in total. The teams who are playing against the Relegation are not playing for Fun or something, you basically play for their live, as a player, as a coach, as a Fan, as an Club owner, just everyone. That’s also a big fact why the Competition is much Harder than in the US and more emotional, ist’s way more than a Game, it’s your Life, its your Future. Some Clubs get completely destroyed by an Relegation, their are Teams who was 10 years ago in the First division and know playing on Amateur level. The Suicide Level in professional football is compare to other sports significant higher. Some players fell in deep depressions because can’t handle the Expectations and Pressure from The Club, Fans, Media etc. And the Media in Europe when it comes to football is absolutely Brutal. Couple Years ago A German Goalkeeper named Robert Enke jumped in front of a train because he didn’t see a other way to get away from the pressure.

Watch the Sunderland till I die program from Netflix to have an idea of what it means to get relegated.

[@johnnyschrder2083]

The finance plays a HUGE part if and when a team is relegated, huge! Being relegated means less income from fewer tickets being sold, fewer sold tickets means less merchandice, food and beverages sold and a big cut in TV money. Being relegated sucks! :)

[@thetabbyguy921]

Sucks when it happens but it's definitely an important part of the sport

[@davidsenra2495]

Relegation games (specially between teams that are at risk) can be pretty intense and wild and sometimes are more fun than games between teams that are actually running for the title. There is a special kind of schadenfreude in watching all that despair (and subsequent tears) of players, fans and managers from teams that get kicked out. Sometimes, we never hear from them for a long time. It's brutal, but so fun.

[@mrSnotyify]

There's a huge revenue loss that comes with getting relegated. A lot of it comes from losing broadcasting revenue from TV deals because a lot more people watch the top division football compared to 2nd division football. And also for the players who are under contract, they wanna play in the top division for a lot of different reasons. That often leads to the relegated teams being forced to sell their best players, or at least sell them if they don't get promoted right away after one season.

[@dannycheesums]

Following up what you raise at 10:40, occasionally a team does win the league, cup, and champions league, and that’s known as a treble. Any team that does that is always remembered

There´s a few teams that won all in one year!!! Bayern, Barcelona, Ajax (that I remember). They won the League, The Cup and the SuperCup (winner of the League vs winner of the Cup) in their countries, then won de Champions League and the ReCup in Europe (winner of the Champions vs winner of the Europa Legaue is another tournament like champions) and in december won the wolrd cup of clubs, the winners of the all continents face each other in a short tournament.

In france, just awnser the "how many division" question, we got the Ligue 1 and 2. Then the ligues 3 4 and 5 are called "nationale" 1 2 and 3. Then it's a little bit tricky, each region is separated and play for themselves. Here we got "Regional" 1 2 and 3. And finally we got the district part, which are only for the "departement". Here you got district 1 2 3 4 5 6 7. In summary: - France got 15 divisions séparated by their size and level, ligue 1 & 2 and national 1, 2 & 3 are the only one played on a national level. - The lowest level is D7 or District 7 (which is rare and only exist in certain places in france). -Only Ligue 1 and 2 and a little part of the national 1 teams are proffessional and the rest is semi-pro or amateur

[@rdgs99]

The structure of football is like this (it will be a large text, sorry haha) : Football have two worlds. The clubs world and the national teams world. This worlds have layers of official tournaments. Clubs: 3 layers *National Layer* - Usually, there are 2 of national championships. - This championships are organized by the national federation. - The League, where the teams play against each other, home and away. In the end of the rounds, the team with more points win the trophy. Usually this leagues are divided by divisions, where, in the and of the season, the teams with less points are relegated and the teams with more points climb up of division or, if the teams are in the first division, qualify for a continental championship. Examples: La Liga (Spain), Premier League (England), Bundesliga (Germany), Serie A (Italy), Brasileirão (Brazil), MLS (USA). - The Cup, where the teams plays in an a big bracket play-offs format tournament. Clubs from all divisions play this championship. The team with less goals in two matches, home and away, is eliminated and the other team advance to the next stage. Sometimes underdog clubs from lower division go really deep in cups, and sometimes, they even win. Usually, the winner of this tournament qualify for a continental championship. This cups happen parallel to the leagues in the season schedule. Examples: Copa del Rey (Spain), F.A. Cup (England), DFB Pokal (Germany), Coppa Italia (Italy), Copa do Brasil (Brazil). US don't have a cup. - This is the standard national structure, but there are variations, for example, England have 3 cups. Mexico and USA doesn't have any relegation as the clubs are not clubs but franchises. Brazil have state and regional championships. Some countries in Latin America have 2 leagues for each half of the season (Apertura/Clausura system). *Continental Layer* - National federations are affiliated to the continental confederations. - There are 6 continental confederations: UEFA (Europe), Conmebol (South America), CAF (Africa), Concacaf (North/Central America and Caribbean), ACF (Asia) and OCF (Oceania). - The teams best qualified in the national top division and, usually, the winner of the national cup of the previous season qualifies to the continental championships. - Usually, confederations have 2 club championships. A 1st tier clubs championship (those teams that qualified from 1st to 4th place in the national league and the champion of the cup) and a 2nd tier clubs championship (from 5th to 8th place in the national league). - This championships are divided in 2 stages: Group Stage, home and away matches, (best 2 teams of the group qualify to play-offs) and Play-offs, also home and away matches. - 32 clubs plays the continental championships. - The champion of 2nd tier championship qualifies to the 1st tier championship. - The champion of 1st tier championship qualifies to FIFA Club World Cup. - Examples of 2nd tier continental club championship: UEFA Europa League, CONMEBOL Sudamericana, CONCACAF League - Examples of 1st tier continental club championship: UEFA Champions League, CONMEBOL Libertadores, CONCACAF Champions League (Concachampions) - There are other complementary mini-championships like UEFA Super Cup or CONMEBOL Recopa, where 1st tier continental champion face the 2nd in a single match-final in neutral stadium. - This layer also have variations, for example, UEFA have a 3rd tier championship for european clubs: UEFA Conference League. *World Layer* - Continental confederations are filiated to FIFA (International Football Federation Association). - FIFA organizes the FIFA Club World Cup. It used to happen in december of every but, due to covid, it's now happening in januaries. - FIFA chooses invite the countries that will host the tournament (this year it happened in Qatar, next year will happen in the United Arab Emirates). - The 6 continental champions + champion of the host country plays the Club World Cup. - The championship is divided in 4 play-off stages. - 1st stage: Oceania champions x Host country champions - 2nd stage: 1st stage winner x Africa champions and Concacaf champions x Asia champions - 3rd stage (Semi-final): 2nd stage game 1 x South America champions and 2nd stage game 2 x European champions - 4th stage (Final): Final between the two clubs left. - Spain clubs are the most times world champions of winners, 11 times, followed by brazilian clubs, 10 times and argentinian clubs, 9 times. Obs: In clubs, the Club World Cup is also important but the clubs top prize is the continental 1st tier championship. National Teams: 2 layers National teams are represented by national federations. Because of that, in international matches you can see the federation emblems on teams jersey, instead of country flags. National teams games happen in DataFifa dates, where the coach of this teams summon up 23 players of clubs around the world, and the clubs send these players for a couple days for these international games. *Continental Layers* - There are 2 kinds of championships that continental confederations organize. - The continental cup: The national teams play qualifiers to play this championship. Then group stage and playoffs. The continental federations define a country to host this championship. Usually these cups happen for each 4 years. Examples: UEFA Euro, CONMEBOL Copa América, CONCACAF Gold Cup, CAF Nations Cup - The FIFA World Cup Qualifies: National teams of the continent play against each other. It have not a standard format because these qualifiers played are diferent for each continent. While in Europe they play a group stage/play-off qualifiers, in South America every nation play against each other, home and away, and the top 4 teams of the leaderboard qualify to the WC and 5th goes to the play-in against other continent team for a place on the WC. - Also there are variations: in Europe they play the UEFA Nations League, where the national teams are organized on 4 divisions and each team of this division play against each other. *World Layer* - The FIFA World Cup is the holy grail in football. Is the biggest prize of the sport. - It happen for each 4 years and is played in a group stage/play-off format. It's organized in pre-defined country or countries and it's played by 32 national teams from all continents. - These 32 teams are divided in 8 groups. The group teams face each other once. The 2 best teams of the group qualify to play-offs. - The world cup is going to its 22nd edition next year in Qatar. - The most times champion is Brazil with 5 titles, followed by Germany and Italy, 4 trophies for each one. - The last FIFA World Cup was in 2018 and happened in Russia. - The current world champion is France. They won the final against Croatia on the Luzhniki Stadium, in Moscow. Note: 99% of group stages and leagues have a standard point system. Winner take 3 points, loser take nothing and one point is given to each team if they draw. Sorry again for this huge text and my bad english but it explains how football works worldwide. Thanks for your content boys, cheers from Brazil !!!!!!

[@adpop750]

"you got a whole country behind you" No you don't. This is only about club football. Which is something different than the national teams, were countries play each-other. At clubs players from all kinds of countries play together in a team. The club is the employer of the pro player, players can sign at any club they want, for any salary. Every club just tries to contract the best players they can afford. These clubs play in their national league, their national cup(s) and if good enough, in the European cup(s), like the Champions league. Beside all this you have competitions between national teams. Players from any club can be invited to play for their national team, which is an honor. In German national team only Germans play, in the English team only English players, In the USA national team only Americans and so on. Every 4 year there is a world cup, for which all the countries in the world try to qualify, and the ones who do, play at the world cup tournament held somewhere over the course of a few weeks. Also on every continent there is a cup, in Europe this is the European Cup, also held every 4 years (held in years between World Cups). So for example: Cristiano Ronaldo, he is a Portuguese player who plays for Manchester United in England. With Man. United he plays in the Premier league, The FA cup, the league cup and the Champion league. He also plays in the Portuguese national team, with all other Portuguese players who get invited. Paul Pogba also plays at Man. united, but he is French, so he plays for the French national team. So Pogba and Ronaldo play in the same team at their Club but when they play for their national team they play in different teams.

And just imagine this whole process being replicated in every other continent Big continental cup, many national leagues with promotion and relegation system and a national cup That's every year, with the only difference being the calendar In Brazil for example, the teams from the first and second divisions play from January until November or even begining of December every year

[@marksmith8210]

The point system for wins, losses, and ties works out much better than before when a win was only worth 2 points. So many then played for a tie so often that there was little action compared to now. Look at old footage from the 80s amd early 90s. Hard fouls on any good chance and many of the players weren't in good enough shape to last a half the way it is played now.

[@davida7153]

Relegation could be a disaster depending of many things. My team, for example, is a small one that got lucky 8 years ago and was able to get to the spanish first division. After 8 season we got relegated to the second division but it was not a disaster since the people who manage the club didnt went crazy and didnt invest too much money in the years in the first division, mantaining a good balance. Other clubs went much much worst when they went relegated and there are cases where teams just dissapeared because they went broke and they could not recover because the debt was too big. So in "soccer", specially in the big european divisions you have to be very careful with the finances.

[@auto98]

Yeah there are two theories - don't go mad and when you get relegated you survive, or take the risk of spending big in the knowledge that you might either go bust if relegated, or at least have not enough money to prevent further relegations

[@justinchennhp222]

Lol there are teams that win all of them , they call it a treble, winning your league, your cup AND the champions league in the same season, it’s really hard to do but some teams have done it

The decrease in revenue is huge. Some teams do survive changing divisions if they manage their finances well, but some don't and go way down. The team of my city, in Spain, was in the 1st division 10 years ago and now is on the 4th division and it's very close to bankruptcy.

I believe they've made a second part for this where they say that some leagues have playoffs like Belgium or Scotland but not as a knockout round( that usually happens for lower divisions to try to get promoted for example 2nd team faces the 5th in the lower division or when the 3rd from the bottom of the higher league plays the 3rd in the lower like in Germany)

Does not depend on the number of goals you score in game. If you win you get 3 pts, you lose you get 0 pts and if you draw you get 1 pt. If more than one team has the same number of points then we take the goal difference, Goal difference = Goals scored by the team - goals scored against the team. Whoever has a better GD will be placed higher on the table

[@auto98]

For a look at just how many divisions there can be, in England it goes to around tier 20/21. Something around 7-8000 clubs are theoretically able to win the top championship after a few years of promotions (well ok 2 decades of promotions if you are at the very bottom). There are around 500 divisions inside those tiers. The top 5 tiers are all fully professional except for one or two clubs in the 5th tier, so around 110 professional clubs in what is a tiny country by area.

I play in a mostly Hispanic soccer league in a medium sized US city. There are 4 divisions in the city that use a very similar format. We bounced in and out of the top league. I did it for fun but being paid 10-20 bucks a game and sometimes larger amounts for being the top of the second division is cool. These leagues are very competitive. My friends from high school were stuck at the bottom of the 4th division. They had to pay for jerseys and referees in that division. We had our provided by sponsors..

the thing you also need to know is that the gap between first and second division is big but not as big as US system, you usually survive getting relegated. However for some clubs used to be main contenders for championship, getting relegated is wild, last year two historical french clubs got relegated (AS Saint-Etienne and Girondins de Bordeaux) it is like Chicago Bulls and Celtic getting kiked out of NBA. I recommand you to watch Saint-Etienne fans reacting after their club got relegated ...

Here in Spain there are like 9 divisions. I can create a team right know with friends , and If I win the league 9 yrs in row I can end up playing against Real Madrid, I would need some money, coz from the 4 division up you need some cash standards, a stadium and it starts to get professional, But you get the point, there's no impediment for any team to make it to the top if they're good.

And btw only 4 top teams have won league, cup and champions league in the same season, the treble is called. Barça, Manchester United, Ajax and Inter Milan. Real Madrid never, but they're the only team that defended the champions league titles, they won it 3 times in a row. 4 times in 5 years

[@Mozartkugel]

@Naim Bensaid: If you count Ajax, you must also count Celtic and Eindhoven, since they also won a european treble when the Champion’s League did not yet exist. On the other hand, you didn’t count Bayern which is the only club alongside Barça to win the „modern“ treble twice, last time in the preceeding season (2020). Overall there’s 7 clubs that have won the european treble.
