    Coming from an English Football fan, great explanation
    However, there's one thing important to note when looking at the whole system
    Promotion isn't just as simple as the top few teams getting promoted
    We have a system of automatic promotion and play-offs
    Let me explain with an example
    I support Bristol Rovers, we're in League One, but we just got promoted from League Two
    In League Two, there's 4 promotion spots (the amount of promotion spots also varies by League, it can be as little as 2)
    But only the top 3 go up automatically
    We finished in 3rd which meant we did go up automatically, but if we finished in 4th we would've been in the play-offs
    Basically the next 4 teams go into the play-offs (so for L2 4th-7th)
    The highest team plays the lowest, the middle two play in the semi-final, which has 2 legs
    Then the winners go onto the final, which if it's in one of the EFL Leagues would be held at Wembley (the national stadium if anyone didn't know)
    The winner gets promoted
    So in L2 you could finish lower than 4th and still get promoted (this season the play-offs were won by 5th)
    Not too important to know if you only plan on following the Prem but if you want to become a fan of English football more broadly or even support a lower level team this is important to know

      This is a two year old comment but I just had to reply to say that I've been getting into football because my grandfather has supported one team his whole life and I wanted to talk to him about football more often and learn...and his lifelong team is Bristol rovers!!! What are the chances I would come on here and find an exact explanation to a question I had from another Rovers supporter, on a video made by someone from the US. What a small world!

    You mustn't call clubs at lower levels insignificant. These clubs may attract less than 1000 fans but they are very important to their fans and the community. Non league football is an absolute joy for a really genuine football experience. Premier League fans may also follow a club in the lower leagues.

    • @snowmansportsmedia
      @snowmansportsmedia  4 роки тому +52

      Good point, I didn't mean to imply that the lower leagues were unimportant and contained no value. I meant it more as, for common fans just starting to learn about the Premier League and European football, that they're not going to hear nearly as much about those lower leagues as the Premier League. That's where the real star power is.

    I am an American born Anglophile, one parent was born and raised in England the other born and raised in a British Commonwealth nation. I love watching English Premier league football when it is shown over here. But I never fully understood it. I knew the basic terms and things like relegation and promotion, but there were many things I either learned in this video or that were more succinctly explained. Definitely well worth just a little under five minutes of my time.
    This is just for my own enjoyment of the sport, no gambling or anything involved. I love my American sports, but I want to be more familiar with the British football system. I especially appreciate your tying It into baseball. I know that might confuse or anger our British friends watching this, but it made it clear for me.

      Goal difference only comes into play if 2 teams are tied on points. So say Liverpool and Man City both have 24 points, with Liverpool scoring 21 goals and conceding 7, while Man City scores 18 while giving up 11. Liverpool would be ahead on goal difference because 21-7=14. Their goal diff is +14 while City's would only be +7

      Hmm no I think that's more of a US/North American thing. I may be wrong, but I believe players don't receive individual rings for winning the Premier League, however, they do get medals iirc

      You play the following season in the league below. So if you finish bottom 3 in the premier league you move down to the English League Championship. But that following season a team will have a chance to get promoted if they finish high enough and back to the prem league

      You play in a lower division next season and every other season after that until you get promoted/relegated again.
