Said I didn't care if we didn't go up and I stand by that. Slightly disappointing that we didn't give it more but tbf the approach was completely understandable imho. Both teams trying not to lose rather than trying to win with Huddersfield slightly edging it. We didn't really give a good account of ourselves but neither did they. No problems with the penalty misses, both Moore and Obita have been outstanding for us, especially so the former and so shouldn't be too disheartened. A tad strange that we had a CB up there and no Gmac but whatever, it is what it is and no point getting too worked up over one thing.
Huddersfield deserve it. End of. Yes we finished higher (just) however let's not forget we more than likely wouldn't have had they not thrown their remaining games by resting players. We've both been up there all season and there was little to separate the sides in both of our league games. Narrow one nil victories to the home side in both occasions, taking into consideration they had a man down at our place. Over the course of the season they played nicer football than we have and their fans have been absolutely fantastic all season long. Really hope they do well and I'll definitely be keeping an eye on them.
We should be immensely proud of the achievements of this team this season, to come from where we were to now is remarkable and hats off to everyone involved at the club.
Will be sad to lose Williams especially after his good form of late (and our MOTM today) but I'm already looking forward to next season. Stam won't go anywhere, I'd be surprised if anyone else does, the young team we have will have learnt a huge amount and should be better, and with our new owners hopefully Jaap will have the funds available to add quality additions that we need to instigate a more legitimate and founded promotion campaign.
Really not vexed about missing out on paying more money to be surrounded by plastic fans, get dicked every weekend and being a Match of The Day afterthought - at least for another season.
Anyway, was tanked and so had a good laugh.
Highlight of the day: "Were the inside/outside of the pub" chant at the torch (I was outside btw).
