Question for the soccer brehs. If the bottom 3 in a league get relegated and the top 3 get promoted has there been an instance where a team was too good for one league but not good enough for the other so they just keep bouncing up and down? Or would a team who wins the championship league be good enough to stay in the premier league a couple seasons.

Some of them are, some of them not. Norwich and West Brom are a great example, too good for the Championship, too shyt for the Prem.
A manager named Neil Warnock is another example. He can get your club to Premier League, but he's odds on to send them back down and lose his job in the process.

So how does that affect rivalries? Do fans enjoy traditional rivalries or would they rather see the team move up to a better league? Couldn’t you have a situation were traditional rivalries end due to promotion?
