The Bavarians will compete in third-tier football for the first time since season 1992-93.The future of one of Germany’s storied football clubs looks unclear. Former Bundesliga champions 1860 Munich were sent to the third division, after losing 2-0 in the second leg to Jahn Regensburg, who triumphed 3-1 on aggregate. Relegation to the third tier marks the nadir for the Lions, who have endured a torrid few seasons in the second division. In the third division, 1860 will collect just one million euros in TV revenues, compared to the six million in the second tier. Given the instability off the field, there can be no guarantee of a quick revival for the former champions of Germany.
