Surprised at the lack of joy and excitement on here

I’m a little bit shell-shocked really. There has been a worry of relegation nagging at us for months on end, and now it’s not happened. It’s not really sunk in yet. I need to keep reminding myself.

I think the fact that the great escape has happened whilst having not gone to the games, has made it a bit surreal.

Christ - imagine what you'd be like if we had gone down.
 
As the man himself says surviving relegation for a club like us shouldn’t be a cause for celebration and I’d agree with that.

“ A club like this should be successful, they shouldn't be fighting to stay in this league. They have to be at the other end."
 
Pleased we avoided the dreaded drop but not sure what to look forward to now.
Start of the season not sure when, with probably no fans again, so finding it difficult to enthuse about future games.

Very happy we aren't waiting on EFL decisions (y)
 
I honestly didn't think we'd go down until after the Swansea game, and even then I thought we might be ok. Had we kept Woody, we might have done it by the skin of our teeth assuming Wigan don't win the appeal, that might have felt more 'euphoric' I guess.

Since Warnock came in I've been virtually 100% confident we wouldn't go down. So no, I don't particularly feel like its a massive celebration to be had, it felt like a formality really.

The only time I was genuinely worried was after the hull game as that was a real low as maddo says these are dreadful by far the worst side in this division ( a point made by Wigan soon after) to lose that could have been fatal.

True but I thought we'd played ok in the match itself. I felt like Warnock would get us over the line even after that sucker punch. We were a bit unlucky in that game.
 
I was absolutely buzzing with the win last night, but we've not actually been in the relegation zone since Warnock's first game, and at no point did it seem likely that we'd enter it last night.
Leeds were beating Charlton 2-0 before it had really sank in that we'd conceded and all other results were going our way before we did, we were never going down under Warnock.

I'm looking forward to the transfer rumours and signings now.
 
I am joy and excitement! I really thought we were gone when we were 3rd bottom but now I can look forward to next season's promotion challenge
 
Dirty Leeds going 2-0 up very quickly calmed us all down last night. I was still absolutely delighted to have avoided the drop and winning the match with a last minute winner was the icing on the cake 👍
 
I think people are probably more relieved than anything else. We have absolutely nowt to celebrate. Don't get me wrong, last nights win was great and I was over the moon that Warnock came in, did a great job and we avoided relegation on our own merit rather than relying on others.
