The club has such a huge meaning to Germany. With the 1954 world cup title, they gave a lot of pride to all west germans (and even east germans, too). And all five players of the club being in Switzerland that time played in the final. Fritz Walter is seen as a man who built up the nation morally as the moral was devasted after the war.

Is it ironic that a World Club brings Kaiserslautern into limelight (the 1954 with the Miracle of Bern) but then another World Club also leads to this club's downfall (by the debts taken for paying the Renovation of Stadium for the 2006... which is named after said Legend who created that Miracle in the first place)?

That was a huge mistake cause they really weren't a top team then and still bought a lot players who weren't in their prime anymore for way too much money! They also had a lot of "dirty" presidents which stole money from the club then...

In 14/15 we were one win away from confirming promotion with 4 games to go against fairly easy opposition. we lost 2 and drew 2 dropping into 4th place. afterwards the best players, like leipzigs orban, leverkusens demirbay and napolis younes left and we fell into midtable and then relegation. it's pretty tough to think back to how close we got to being back in the bundesliga and likely fixing our financial issues, while we now sit in lower midtable in the 3 bundesliga.

Anyway thanks for the good video about my beloved club. Cheers and greatings from Kaiserslautern Edit: Maby you should do a follow up Video, cause in past 2 years, the club turned things around. After coming desperatly close to Relegation out of professionell Football in 20/21, to beeing Promoted in the most nervewrecking fashion in a season were nobody even thought about Promotion in 21/22, playing one hell of a season in the 2.

"...almost comparable to the Premier League title won by Leicester..." - This is a prime example of the Premier League bias you see so often in football videos these days. Both from an emotional standpoint and as footballing performance, Kaiserslautern's achievement ranks significantly higher than Leicester's. I don't want to take anything away from the Foxes' unbelievable title run. The competition in today's Premier League is incredibly strong and there is almost no room to break the top club's reign. However, Leicester did spend freaking 40.000.000€ that summer and another 23.000.000€ the year before that. Not much in comparison to Chelsea, ManCity and so on. But a ton in general to work with and sign players like Kante. So obviously they were able to snatch up great talent. To put things into perspective, Leicester spent more that year than Bayern Munich has 16 times out of the last 20 years! With this sort of investment power you are obviously bound to generate some success. Kaiserslautern on the other hand won the title as a newly promoted side. To get a feel for that kind of scope you would need to imagine Norwich winning the title last season. Not everything great only happens in freaking England! Aside from Kaiserslautern 1998, you might want to check the Bundesliga relegation battle of 1999, or Schalke's 4-minute title of 2001.

The rest, well, I would say that I'll just do my usual daily activities and wait for you to present some (mostly) unthinkable football contents and watch it as well as give it as many likes as possible (as I already subscribed to this channel since...

Excellent video, thank you

fantastic video!

I lived in German in 1991, just outside of K-Town. The area then, as alluded to, has the largest concentration of Americans outside of America. It feels like America more than Germany. Everyone seemed to speak English (it made it really hard to try and speak German, because it was just easier to do it in English) There are English TV channels, radio stations, fast food joints. I mean, it made it easy to live there for sure. That year, FCK was the Bundesliga. I always wondered what the deal was with them, they were so fanatically supported by all the Germans I knew. (I was not in the Military, I was working for a cycling company and was racing bikes as an amateur.)

So sad, been a fan since 1997, when I visited and stayed in Kaiserslautern. Always will be a fan. I wish them the best and to get back to top level.

I lived in Ramstein for 3yrs, and my first ever soccer game I went to Kaiserslautern to see them play Nuremberg in a 1-1 tie. It was cold but had a great time.

This is an incredible video

1:00am here in Los Angeles! Stay safe everyone! 🙏🏽

Kaiserslautern's fall makes me very sad. I'm not a die-hard supporter of them, but I've been there twice when my team (Hannover 96) played there and their fans are very nice people. I have very fond memories and their arena is awe-inspiring. Their supporters have gone through a lot and it's a shame to see them where they are right now. They all deserve so much better.

Love this, thank you!

Small technical annotation: during their first stint at the second tier, they weren't 10 points ahead of Werder Bremen, as stated in the video, but of VfL Wolfsburg. Werder Bremen was (as of now, if the Corona season would have continued it may change) only once in the second tier in 1980. VfL Wolfsburg has been promoted the same year as Kaiserslautern bounced back and stayed in the top flight ever since.

I really enjoyed this video. I don't want to sound picky, and I understand you'd like to keep it short and concise- but it would be cool to hear a bit more detail about "how" they won the Bundesliga (who signed, who tookover as manager, what happened on the last league match/title decider/relegation decider etc)...just a thought. A little added context. Otherwise awesome content, subscribed!

Grew up in K-town (military brat) There is so much history behind this team and some star studded players have put on that kit in the past, it's truly a shame what happened to them and hopefully they drag themselves back up to the top flight sooner than later.

Why would 1. FC Kaiserslautern have to pay themselves for the stadium renovation when the DFB or whoever was in charge chose it as one of the host stadiums for the 2006 WC? Especially since they don't even own the stadium! That should have been paid by the DFB and the state/city, and MAYBE a bit by the club if they agreed to it. Absolutely insane.

Quality video

Brilliant 👏🏻 Well done

Can you please do the rise of Luton? I think the consecutive promotions would be an interesting topic for a video.

Respect thanks for this

The biggest problem after being the Champion in 1998 was the transfer-policy. We just bought expensive players, gave them a lot of money but the didnt perform like they should. Those transfers just erase the money and were deadly too. But the stadium really killed us after the World Cup. And to be honest our team this season isnt that bad but they just do not perform the way they could. We won 5 games in a row but in the last 5 games we didnt win any game. And with our goalkeeper going to Leverkusen and our top scorer most likely to leave too next season could be really hard. But I love it that finally someone outside of germany makes a video about our lovely club 😁😁

Can you please do a video on MSV Duisburg 1 of the founders of the bundesliga now in the bottom of the 3rd tier... It would mean a lot to me and my favourite club:)

Whoever disliked this video failed in history class.

They have so much potential as a club. If they could fill that Stadium. Just need a winning mentality on the pitch. Always go 1.FCK in Fifa. And bought FM 21 to get them back to where they belong. First attempt, I finished 4th and 2nd season 5th and they sacked me. Funny eh.

Then I started again. Played 4-3-3 wde DM. Went through the liga.3 unbeaten promoted first season. Computer games we can dream, with one game left in Bundesliga 2 lying 2nd 1 pt behind Augsburg and 1 pt ahead of Mainz 05. It is only a game, but would love to see Kaiserlautern FC in the Bundesliga again.

Really cool vid

Go through each team and pick the best ever player from each continent.

Was it so hard to find actual fotos of Ottmar Walter? Well, at least he is in some of them, I guess.

I have fond memories of my brief, drunk times in K-town.

These types of videos are my fav but I prefer it when their is a happy ending 😂 sadly in a lot of cases that’s not what happens tho, thankfully it was for my club (Rangers fc) and the worst is behind us I can’t believe myself how far we gave came

Rise and Fall of the underated throw in. Please top 7 throw in takers.

Can u do something about swiss football one day? Would be nice, we have some interesting teams here. For example about YBs first league title in30 years

Alfie, a hint for the future: It's First, Second and Third Bundesliga, not One, Two and Three (you can see a little dot after the numbers ;) )

An extremely so tearful to see Kaiserslautern to be in a downfall despite winning several titles in their history but I would want to see them winning two promotions from the division 3 to the top flight in coming years,good friend!!!:(By the way,I would want to see the German FA to be broadcasting the lower division matches so that most of us would watch those matches and never ever leave them out as our respective supports must be given to them as well as in the first division,good friend!!!:-D

Do an updated: Best footballer from EVERY top flight league in Europe including all leagues of the UK

just started a career mode save with them due to this video, time to win the Bundesliga 🤝

Do a video on football stadium s being built

Can you do "7 most prolific goalscorers of all time"?

Great video although as an Eintracht Frankfurt I hate them I want them back in the Bundesliga because I miss the games against Kaiserslautern because of the hatred between both set of fans

Kaiserslautern Betzenberg I miss you👹😭🙏
