Well, ******** me. Edit: @georg, sorry I just saw your reply. Hope you didn't see it at all, trust me, it was for the best. Horrible behaviour on and off the pitch.
I've been to the match and after all this I have to say Regensburg fully deserved the win. For 1860 this is the worst case scenario for the club as we know it (I read only 6 players have contracts for 3. Liga? in any case costs exploded this season, and this is the result of it). I like to be optimistic and hope this is a good chance to fundamentally reform the club, to go back to basic etc.
Shocking result. You are right that the changes that couldn't be made after finishing 16th and 15th are suddenly possible after relegation. I wish that weren't the case.
A long time coming... Hope relegation to the 3. Liga can spur this mess of a club to reorganize itself into something that could actually function. Hope Ismaik bails, he's been the problem more than the solution, and I also hope we get out of that crippling stadium deal.
It seems unlikely that 1860 will play in the 3. Liga next season... and that's actually the best case scenario. 1860 goes into insolvency, Ismaik pouts and leaves for good, the club restarts in the Regional- or Oberliga. Worst case scenario: Ismaik gives them the few million Euros needed to get the 3. Liga license and continues to run the club into the ground.
So, 1860 will not play 3. Liga (they will try to play Regionalliga, but it's not a sure thing yet) but Ismaik still wants to stay... at least it won't get boring then, I guess.
Yeh, that's the worst solution of them all. I'd rather play in the lower leagues without Ismaik. If push comes to shove, I could find peace with playing 3rd division with Ismaik. But being an amateur club with Ismaik is horrible. The Bavarian Football Association just instated another rule 3 days ago that the 50+1 rule is in effect in its leagues aswell. Ismaik (quite rightly) thinks that this is done just b/c otherwise he would now have 60% of the club and announced that he's going to court to abolish the 50+1 rule once and for all. It doesn't get boring, does it
Worst of both worlds, going down and still having Ismaik around. I hope the e.V. finds a way to shed the KGaA, they are down anyway and Ismaik showed his worth with this move.

The debacle comes at the end of an embarrassing week for the formerly great club that won the Bundesliga in 1966. The club has been in a spiral all season, tumbling down the table in the 2.Bundesliga and finding themselves in a relegation playoff. There, angry fans caused the match to be delayed by 15 minutes and injured 10 police officers on the field. The team ended up losing the tie, 3-1, sending them down to the third division.
So, today is Matchday. After yesterday's news about the (temporary!) solution to our financial problems and the inevitable fact that we'll never play in the Allianz Arena again (well, until we play CL in 2025 ofc ), today is all about the sport. With Memmingen and Burghausen, we have two hard matches at the start of the season. Still, I am really looking forward to a young team with some familiar faces (Mauersberger, Mölders, Gebhart).
Of course not. He was only signed for one year, but 3.Liga, let alone Regionalliga would have been unthinkable.
Maybe, or maybe not: http://www.goal.com/en/news/ivica-o...-germany-bundesliga/7z1gpp8ixq491rmyd373j6klb
So, we are leading after 12 Minutes in the promotion play-offs. Getting promoted is kinda important, because I'm sure we'd lose key players if we didn't manage it this time round. Also, 3rd Liga is epic next season with FCK, Lautern and KSC... I so want 60 to be in that league
