Should I feel bad that it doesn't hurt as much as previous relegations?

    But I do feel surprisingly optimistic about next season.

    I was expecting it for a while but now it's been confirmed I'm more upset than I thought I would be.

    I had no idea how I'd feel. I didn't know if I'd be angry or beef my eyes out, but in reality I am quite excited about next year. I just hope the finances don't mean a full cull, because we have some great players for the league below.

    I hope there is a massive cull. I don't mean that in a metaphorical sense by the way.

    I feel much better than during any previous relegation. At the end of the day it's only football. It's not friends, family or your health.

    For once I agree with you. This has been coming for a while, but I was really down last night about it.

    The first half performance hurt more than being relegated, I think the fact we'd been almost certain to drop for quite a while softened the blow. I feel that had we won yesterday and taken it to the last week only to flop at home again it would have been harder to take.

    I think most of us were aware the writing was on the wall a while ago and although we appeared to be presented with a couple of lifelines I personally was resigned to our fate.
    As regards next season I think we could be in for another season of struggle n strife similar to what Bristol City have endured this season.
    One consolation is our financial situation is far healthier than what there's is.
    Tough times lay ahead and for me our priority is to steady the ship and hope for a mid table finish next season.
    Another Relegation would be disastrous for us.

    Hadn't thought that far ahead but thinking about it you are 100% right. That would have hurt badly. This just feels like the inevitable has happened and not actually being there made it somewhat easier. I could just turn the radio off and have done with it.

    I felt not one tinge of dissapointment if I'm been honest. Strange that?!? Last season I was nervous as hell days before Huddy away, it ruled my week! Then yesterday was weird, just glanced at the scores like we had nothing to play for. Didn't even get excited for the 60 secs we lead! It was sort of a self imposed inevitability really. Probably some sort of self imposed coping mechanism.

    You stop being so dull.

    By the way Hull are signing Krul and I'm off out on the pull to get out of my skull, before a lull and a gull tikka masala

    Felt worse over previous relegations, lot worse. Think I resigned myself to it after the defeat to Bournemouth. As someone said loosing family or friends like we seem to be doing puts it into perspective. Looking forward to visiting new grounds next season but not the standard of football if it's anything like last time we were in division 3

    I'm exactly the same Jack, weirdly I'm really excited about next season maybe it's my blind optimism that's making me believe we are going to be at the right end of the table for a change
