Review and events

The club lost coach Kosta Runjaic on 3 September to second division side MSV Duisburg. Runjaic was replaced with Jürgen Seeberger two days later.^[1]

At mid-season, Darmstadt were sitting in dead last, 20th place, in the relegation zone.

At the end of the season, the club finished in 18th, which is in the first spot of the relegation zone of the 3. Liga. But due to the fact that Kickers Offenbach had their license revoked, Darmstadt was not relegated.
