striker Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 For me, after the injuries we picked up and the dip in form over Christmas/New Year I had revised my expectations. I therefore saw being in the play offs as a bonus and had a different sense of perspective. Yes, I'm bitterly disappointed, but not upset and still very optimistic for next year. We lost out in a close semi final to another massive cub, with some decent players and good manager. Could have gone either way, I saw our players give their all and don't really have any regrets. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiltonowl Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 My young uns hurt more than myself,sure they will get used to it as seasons go by. The promised trip to Wembley for there 1st time is now like telling them Santa doesn't exist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One De Bilde Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Never affects me too much, go on my own and only know one other owl (I don't live in Sheffield) so don't really get down about things. Annoying but I will be there again next season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG D Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I was really looking forward to the weekend in London. Missed out last time when we went by coach on the day. Hotel was booked for Fri and Sat (deposit now reclaimed) and was anticipating a wonderful time in Covent Garden etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BridportOwl Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I will go into a brief period of football hibernation to get over it. This is the first time I have ventured into Matchday threads since the final whistle. I can't be doing with the sack Moore threads, so I will have a bit of time out and do some gardening. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PTLiam Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I don't mind league 1, I've really enjoyed our matches since Christmas tbh. Much rather be in a league where we're in contention than one where we're battling at the bottom. still disappointing to get beat last night but hopefully we're up there again next season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIGHERSTATE Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I've never been asked to share my feelings on Owlstalk before. Feel a bit weird. Feeling a bit empty and disappointed....EVERYTHING from the first game felt like the Huddersfield tie and sadly I was right.. Altho little one is off school with a sore throat and temperature so im focused on him. I hate this league..Altho once Owls in the Park comes along people will be over this and buzzing for the new start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulva Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Not really. I managed to secure my season ticket for next season despite huge demand back in December 2021, so I can rest easy knowing full well I’ve guaranteed my seat for the Forest Green game. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beswetherick Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 More disappointed about the manner of the defeat than the defeat itself. All season we’ve conceded daft late goals and to do it in the most important game of the season so far after getting back on level terms is really frustrating. I never fancied our chances of getting past Sunderland, but to lose in the 93rd minute like that is just typical Wednesday 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIGHERSTATE Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I text my brother last night straight after the final whistle and said 'no trip to Wembley then'. His reply was 'Bit cheaper then'..! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moyaowl Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Felt low last night, genuinely felt we could do it, and the feeling when we scored and the whole crowd erupted - goosebumps!!! The feeling of disappointment is going now, looking forward to see what names we get linked with over the summer and who we actually do sign. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daizan10 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I wasn't as bothered as I thought I would be last night. But woke up this morning like something was very wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Starling Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 It doesnt hurt me as much due to lowering the bar of expectation. What does hurt me though is seeing those around me old and young once again having to suffer more disappointment. It really is an old cliche but the fans deserve far more than a good Saturday night out in Milton Keynes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, after a defeat like last night how much does it actually hurt you? Does it effect your day to day life at all? It pains me, felt pretty low all day and will do probably for a few weeks now. It was and still is fooooookin agony !!! Should have known the script really with all the late goals they’ve been getting lately. When will it get better Edited May 10, 2022 by OwlerIT2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRUCE LEE Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 When you’re disillusioned to start, it hurts much less, as it’s kind of expected We’re a cocktail of failure. Predominately down to the owner and some of the legacy players in the squad It’s hard to build up a strong belief of success whilst nothing is really changing in the leadership structure of the club Last night was all a bit meh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshy Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Annoyed. Not with anyone or being a mardy arse, but p1ssed off at what was served up to best part of 32k. Think they were better side so no argument there. I just wonder how many “best” / better than us sides there will be next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
