Second season syndrome is the now-common phrase that is used to describe a downturn in fortunes for a football club two seasons after its promotion to the Premier League of English football - particularly if the first season after promotion had brought a strong finish. The syndrome actually predates the Premiership, and could be seen in the cases of Swansea City (1981 1983) and Millwall (1988 1990) in the old First Division. Second season syndrome has also been used to describe other sports where a successful first season has taken place, followed by a poor second season as well as individual sportspersons. In the US, this event (more commonly applied to athletes than teams) is known as a sophomore slump.
