Plot
AFC Richmond was promoted back to the Premier League at the end of season two after being relegated at the end of season two, setting the stage for what is sure to be another survival battle. The freshly promoted AFC Richmond is mocked in the 12-episode third season of “Ted Lasso” because media projections generally place them bottom of the Premier League. During this time, Rupert Mannion, the former owner of Richmond, appointed Nate Shelley as head coach of West Ham, completing his heel turn.
Reception
IMDb has rated the show 8.8 out of 10 which shows that the program is quite popular among the audience. Its winning back-to-back Emmy awards shows the popularity of the show.
