Are you angry that we didn't go up?

No. Just happy to have my local football team to support in a great stadium, with a good chairman, with none of those premier league prima donas coming here next season.

No. At the time I was very disappointed with the performance against Palace although on the night we didn't deserve anything more. However, it really proved what I had felt all along- that we weren't quite good enough and had we gone up, would have come straight back down with an almighty crash! The Chairman has given the management, and indeed all of us, fantastic support but there must be a limit to what he can do. Let's see what happens next season, with or without a new manager.

I'm ****ing fuming.
Proper manager.Proper team playing proper football,then back to the 70's.
No funding and no ambition.Pat Saward.Freddie Goodwin.
Let's always finish not quite good enough.
Mike Bamber was a genius compared to the money orientated scumdogs running the club at the moment.
You want a better manager than Gus Poyet?
You'll take a long time looking.

I wasn't angry we didn't go up. I was angry we didn't show up for the match though.

Not angry, disappointed with the game against CPFC at the Amex but worse things in life will happen.

Overall great progress, great season, next season we go up.

pissed off that Palace beat us and went up, but big enough to understand that best team on the night won.

patience is a virtue

Lot of respect for this post... Been supporting since the 70s, this was a massive missed opportunity. Will we get a better chance within the next few years? Maybe. But losing Gus is (or will be) a huge blow.

That said, the Championship is a cracking, entertaining league... I just wish we hadn't come so close.

Nope, more disappointed that our manager came up short and doesn't feel inspired to give it another go with us next season. The manner of our defeat and Poyet's public reaction to it, given the backing he had from TB and the fans is what grates the most.

No, as others have said. Angry we did not show up for the game. Angry we had to have stupid gimmicky clapper things. Angry that poyet was not 100% focused on the final quarter of the most important season for a quarter of a century. Angry about the very unprofessional incident. Angry that we lost to our arch rivals.

But overall not to bothered we are not in the top flight next season. I felt we made the playoffs more on other teams being particularly poor than us being particularly good. Not sure that's the ideal way to get promotion to the prem.

No not angry, agree with many sentiments already expressed.

And no not angry because I prefer championship football, it's so close that each match is really exciting - premiership football is a bit more predictable

But of course plenty of reasons to keep dreaming of making it to the top tier
