RadioactiveWaste Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Today it's just the release of all the pressure. They all know it's been a gash season and very few have been a credit to themselves or the club, but for this moment it can all be put aside. The rational judgments will come over the coming days and week but for today, just rejoyce. TuffLuff, Wistaston Ram, Rev and 2 others 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't want to celebrate your club managing to stay up, fine, Luckily most disagree. It's not been good enough from the top down, I agree but we've survived relegation by the skin of our teeth and EVERY SINGLE CLUB would be doing the same if they were in our position right now. Do you really think Sheff wed players would have just walked off the pitch if they won?...NO, they'd have been running round like we were. ??? mwram1973 and Rammy03 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was celebrating escaping, albeit by the skin of their teeth, combined with emotional release. If they'd just trudged off after such a roller coaster game resulting in the club surviving in the championship then they would quite rightly have been criticised for not caring.

This season hasn't been easy for anyone. It is clear from their reaction that it hasn't gone how they wanted. I'm happy to see them celebrating keeping the club in the Championship. Well done lads. #COYR Wish I could have been there with them, I'd have been cheering them ALL.

I've never played competitive sport or in a game on which so much rests but, I would imagine it's very difficult to contain your emotions under such circumstances.

I’m just chuffed to bits atm after watching an unbelievably exciting game of footie, with twists and turns all the way, how we went from being relegated to surviving in the space of one minute....Waggys penalty at virtually the exact moment Cardiff scored.....it’s why football is the best sport in the world...we were very lucky but we’ve had some horrendous luck along the way as well. Enjoy the rest of your day mate and don’t begrudge others enjoying theirs. ??? What a nice way to say cheer up you miserable effer, live and let live. uttoxram75 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nottingram Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 The players were under a hell of a lot of pressure today and indeed for the last few weeks and the end of the game there must have been a nice release. Plenty have not been good enough this season and they’ll know that but they showed a lot of balls today with 100% effort which is all we can ask. Pretty clear that for the most part this sort of thing will boost the relationship between the players and the fans, which is sorely needed. Really nice for the fans that went today for the players to go out and spend a few moments with them. Seeing them stony faced at the end of the game would’ve been bizarre and certainly would have dampened how I feel.

Nuwtfly Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 I will be celebrating with a few drinks tonight. Celebrating our survival in this division. Celebrating the performances of our players today. Celebrating the redemption of some. Celebrating the potentially devastating blow that relegation could have caused to our club. But if you cannot understand why some supporters are not in the mood celebrating, then you are, as one ex-manager would put it, an ostrich. Nothing about this season deserves to be celebrated. It has been the worst in my lifetime supporting this club. Under Cocu this season, we were hopeless, and under Rooney we have been hopeless, too. So hopeless, that we were nearly relegated, but for an equaliser at Cardiff City. That is a disgrace. Both managers have absolutely not succeeded at this club and I dread the thought of starting the next season with the latter in charge. Fundamental change needs to happen at this football club over the summer. A complete and utter fresh start, ideally from top down. A new owner. A new structure at board level. A new coaching team and a decent roster of new players. Will that happen? I doubt it. But I didn't think we'd stay up either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
