Final Day Relegation Battle - 2010/2011 

Hey,why aren't you making videos anymore?

West ham are back

@@AFCmedia22 feels like they were never even close to leaving all this time (from smn. who never paid much attention)

Ye but weren't Wigan about to be I'm prem but their coach gambled or sommet

@@AFCmedia22 And they are massive

@@AFCmedia22 I think he meant the 5 teams involved in this final day shootout at West Ham were already down by that point after they collapsed against Wigan the previous week they were 2-0 up via Demba Ba but ending up losing 3-2 and Avram Grant was fired in the corridor at the DW Stadium after the match

Must of felt a waste of time the next season because you went down…

@@jackbolland9628 Ouch 😂

@@jackbolland9628 I knew we were on borrowed time the second we went up so I wasn't really too shocked. The manner in which it happened was pathetic and the following relegation to league one was hard to take. But it sparked the revival and I'm enjoying being a decent Premier League side now.

@@MahdMahd1 oh dear…you may need to support a different team then

Thank god you stayed up that season hahaha. We all know what happened a year after

@Rizky Wira Don't forget the legends Gary Taylor-Fletcher and of course Ian Holloway

@Rizky Wira DJ Campbell was a good player 👌

shame they where a 1 season wonder

Not really, they bottled it and went down.

@@markob53 They were a breath of fresh air though

also taunting the team that won champions league that season

What goes around comes around

Which team are u referring to?

That’s Chinese cash + rulebreaking for you

@@koyo1203 west ham

What you failed to understand is that clubs are lacking funds in the divisions below. That’s the reality.

@@alohatigers1199 On the contrary, I fully understand this problem, but i fail to see what this has to do with my initial post.

I've always found following relegation battles far more interesting than promotion/champion fights. Every win is absolutely MASSIVE whereas at the top every team wins and you're just waiting for teams to drop points.

They might have even managed to get the Super League through if they had made it the new top of the tree. Divide Europe into north, south, east and west and have a 20 team league with 4 relegation spots. But that is the point isn’t it, these big clubs don’t want to hear about relegation and the financial implications

@@mema0005 Looking at the new Champions League system, I think they got their super league...

I had a similar feeling as you in the 2011/2012 season when it was a final battle between Man City and Man United. I’m a Man U fan and I was upset back then when Aguero scored that goal against QPR. I literally thought we had it won lol. It was a great moment for city though.

I was at molineux that day, 3-0 down to Blackburn at halftime, I thought we were done!

At least you had Steven hunt, criminally under rated

@@fistingendakenny8781 tru, the guy never got the credit he deserved. Loved his style tbf

@@JonathanMartinez-vk5pk nothing changed, look at manutd now

I mean yea even tho it's tough to admit as a United fan the most iconic season was easily 2011/2012 you will really never see it again the league not only just going down to the final season but being won on a last second goal

You’re right but 13/14, 15/16 (not in terms of tightness but just because of Leicester’s Cinderella story) and 18/19 were amazing as well

@@hendrikfullgraf1031 Yep true, but those (13/14 & 18/19) were absorbing because of the intrigue of the title races. There's not really been a gripping final day finale at the bottom of the league since the 10/11 & 11/12 seasons

@@Yasinvanpersie true true

Norwich are relegated already!! (Nothing new there then!!!)

Shame pools owners were useless

Did the double over Liverpool!

Charlie Adam and was it DJ cambel up front, I think 🔥🔥🔥 loved that team and wish they make it back some day.

they were terrible when trying to hold on in the last few minutes of a game, i think i could show 10 moments or more where they conceded late goals

Shame the donkey manager could t change his attacking style when 2-1 up and keep them in the league Why they kept piling forward looking a 3rd goal when they only needed a point showed how naive Holloway is Change your style and beat hard to beat for 20 mins ffs. Blackpool needed 1pt and were 2-1 up and kept attacking like crazy

Wolves did it faster

Birmingham were in the Europa league the same year they went down

@@Tombcfc860 Wigan were in the Europa League the year AFTER they went down

Leicester we’re prem champions two years after promotion

@@iceice0000 that’s what he meant. Birmingham played Europa while they were in the championship, same as wigan

After Blues failed to sign him. Horrible irony

Very underrated at spurs in the prem

The dip on the 2nd shot was insane, I thought it was deflected.

Pavlyachenko was the beast

Never got the recognition or the game time he deserved

I would say the 2005 relegation battle and the 2012 title race were the most dramatic final days in EPL history. But the relegation battle in 2011 was so unpredictable. Such a shame that Blackpool went down. They punched above their weight all season and played a unique open and attacking brand of football. Plus Ian Holloway was such a charismatic and vibrant figure. It would have been one of the great underdog success stories had they had managed to pull it off.

Know Liverpool were average that season but Blackpool did do the double over them which by their standards was impressive. Scored plenty of goals but it was their defensive record which let them down, worse in the league.

You have NEVER seen 2012 then

1989

@@marcus.5024 Apart from Man Utd and Citey battling it out for the title what else was going on that final day? The amount of teams involved in the 2011 last day relegation battle was insane! 2011 all day for me!

It’s actually insane.

Yep, that's how United win a lot of pl titles😂

Was better

Failed footballing society

NBA might they are at least thinking about

@@dutdut2.091 it will be kind of hard

mls really needs to have pro-rel everything else in the current league is fine but this is their single biggest problem

for a 20 year old league popping out expansion teams like rabbits every year, they gonna have to do a closed pro/rel system like J-League.@@holypotato263

I thought you was gonna let us after Alex Bigged us up so much

@@davidd2524 I'm a St Mirren supporter too (I live in Paisley) and Charlie Adam played for St Mirren on loan from Rangers for a season or two. So it was for his sake AND Ian Holloway who is a good bloke that I was willing Blackpool to win. I would LOVE to see them back in the Premiership.

@@stuartmcmillan512 I think if we do go back we will have an owner who will give a crap unlike the dumpster fire owners we had back in 2010/11

Shame he was to naive to get the point Blackpool needed when Blackpool were 2-1 up Rather than change his principals for half an hour and keep a team like Blackpool in the Premier league his arrogance thought he could go an score 3 or 4 goals They were 2-1 up and needed a point. Camp 11 behind the ball ffs and get your point Not pile forward leaving massive gaps all over the pitch

That was one of the best crowd celebrations I have been part of when Gardner scored. Oh well.

They had everything but the quality really. On paper their team was nowhere near PL quality, but they gave it a good bloody go, and almost survived through just pure determination and desire.

@@efancording6363 Totally agree. It was an incredible underdog story that nearly got the Hollywood ending.

Thats how u know back then teams were deadly especially manu

@@efancording6363 "gave it a good bloody go" is damn right. Blackpool didn't have the PL quality, but I respect the hell outta them for putting up a fight until the very last day, hell, the very last 20 minutes or so if I'm being precise. It took 2 late 70/80+ min goals on the part of United to send them sinking down. That's one hell of a PL survival battle if you ask me. There are other PL teams in the past who lack the PL quality just like Blackpool did, but were blown away sooner than you can imagine. Derby County's 11 point season, Sheffield United's 20/21 campaign are among many that comes to mind.

@@hypsmaruf8652 dude the moment I saw Blackpool needed a draw/win and their last game of the season was against MAN UNITED at OLD TRAFFORD, in my mind I told myself "That's it, they're relegated." And all this after forgetting who actually went down in this particular season. SAF's United was on another level, and to take points off them at Old Trafford, maybe you require a 15% chance to do so if you're not a top team, and even if you manage to pull it off, its usually when United least expects it (a game in the middle of the season). But don't expect to take anything off United when you desperately needs it. It don't work that way. Today's United though, I think if Blackpool had led them twice, there's a higher chance they could draw or even win the game 😂

We've really turned it around 😁

they beat us in the play off final (blackpool) extra time

Same

If you haven’t relived it already, check out the final day of the 04/05 season. All 3 relegation places decided on the final day, with the team that started the final day in last place staying up. That’ll never happen again

@@iamnotmrt5063 Really hope we have gameweek 38 with the 3 relegations spots undecided with 4 teams involved again like 2005. That'll probably be Norwich, Newcastle, Burnley and Leeds United.

2005 was way better

@@talkingben5190 Mind you 2020 with Watford, Bournemouth and Aston Villa was interesting as well but that was during the Covid restart and Aston Villa were saved on faulty goal line technology against Sheffield United.

@@ramwinter2622 1994 was very good Everton coming back from 2-0 down to save themselves and Sheffield Utd suffering Ageuro 2012 in reverse when they conceded a last minute goal at Chelsea which sent them down and saved Ipswich.

Say no more 😊

Only Premier League

Untill the 2022/23 season came and is giving us probablt the most wild relegation scraps ever Just 5 points seperate 12 seed Palace and 19 seed Leicester City

Looks like we've got another relegation battle ahead now

Wigan and Blackpool 2 teams who competed in 2010/11 once again have a relegatikn battle Eveb birmingham could join with huddersfield rotherham and cardiff and qpr

Streets will never forget Rodellga and Taraabt(misspelling his name fs💀)

@@lucki2smoove-10kshnnow8 rodellega, taarabt. Peace my g

Well we may repeat history this year

Can’t forget that 😂😂😂🤣

And then got relegated by tottenham. Spurs on top baby

No chance there wank

They were everybody's second favourite team that season and you could see why

I think the whole league was gutted when they went down.

The 22-23 season is by far the most insaine one yet As s Forest fan i feel like we may go down we collapsed big time in the last 2 months i don't know what happened

3 points from 6 games is not good

Compared to now it was exciting

@@MohamedAli-xu3uw i’d rather stay up comfortably than this!

Took us as far as he could. We were one of those teams who thought we could keep surviving by buying players from relegated teams

@@Frowgy28 Did Wonders for Liverpool

@@MohamedAli-xu3uw you are in a relegation form man. Those "things"that are happening now at wolves i find them not so good. Who told the big clubs to come and get nearly everyone from the club? Diogo went to Liverpool, matt Doherty went to Tottenham... We are fucked. Mr morgan come and take us please and fix this mess that nuno espirito santos has make. Oh and please bring mixk with you.

Should have tried winning some more games then. The kids might still have beaten you😅😅

@@aleki779 never thought of that? Hmmn winning games gets you points? State the obvious 🙄. Least we've won more trophies in the last 2 years eh 😉😉

@@Louhawke1994 yeah in championship

@@arifrahim5711 My guy, are you from Manchester and do you support United? If not, you're not relevant. Move along 🤡

@@Louhawke1994 getting pressed because you are still have not been in the epl

Are you watching the premier league this year? The relegatikn battle is crazy

@@jonathanfrimerman8855 Indeed. As of now, 6 TEAMS separated by only 3 points. Leicester, West Ham, Leeds, Everton, Southampton and Bournemouth are all considered to be in the danger zone with a chance to survive, with 12 matches to go. Whew. I can't wait to see how things turn out before the final match day. Oh, if you want my predictions, I'd say it's farewell to the Premier League for Southampton, Leeds, and as much as I don't want it to happen, Bournemouth.

Yup

Chances are they would be relegated the season after

I can defo see that happening

Really do hope so. Not like last season where the bottom 3 were well cut adrift of the rest and relegated before the final day. Haven’t had much of the same since 2010/11 and would as a neutral love to see a dramatic final day survival battle like this one.
