Americans will never know the drama and emotions caused by the the relegation battle.What is your favourite relegation battle?
Bundesliga 1998/1999. In the last round (round 34), five teams needed a win to remain in the top flight, with one team having to join Mönchengladbach and Bochum who already had lost their chances. At halftime, Frankfurt looked like the relegated team, but they turned a 0–0 draw into a 5–1 win against Kaiserslautern. Rostock (3–2 at Bochum) and Stuttgart (1–0 against Bremen) also won their matches, and the other two teams, Nuremberg and Freiburg, faced each other. Nuremberg lost 1–2 and was eventually overtaken by the other four teams, dropping from position 12 to 16, and had to go down to League Two.

That's why superior Rijkaard spat on you you little nazi monkey kunt!
final part of the season in boring in euro leagues.
A team like arsenal could still have a glimmer of hope for the playoffs, instead of being in full crisis mode

Relegation battles can be more fun to watch than the title race. So much emotion, drama. Every touch matters.
I also love last minute wins that involve promotion or safety, like Watford scoring that goal in injury time to win 3-2.

2011 Relegation D-Day in the PL was good.
>West Ham 2-0 up then lost 3-2 with ten to go to go down, then sacking their manager in his own post-match conference.
>Blackpool needing to win at Man Utd who had just won the league, going 2-1 up before losing 4-2.
>Wigan scoring a late winner against Stoke to stay up
>Wolves scoring with two minutes to go to relegate their rivals Birmingham

Ever since that time I've grown to hate Eintracht and Lautern. Lautern was even pretty gud at the time and they completely threw that game. Bunch of bullshit.

>tfw the better a team gets, the more chances it gets to be relocated
What? It usually comes down to stadium negotiations (St Louis or OKC) or just a lack of interest in the team by the fans (Atlanta, Winnepeg). A thriving team almost never jumps cities.
