I have a neighbor down the street who supports a certain "American" football team. When they are having a bad day I always joke to my wife...
"Honey, should I walk down the street and do a Wellness Check?".
Well, it seems we need this for some of you "folk" this week. How are you feeling after session 10?

Unsure
I wasn't expecting to stay in the 1st Division. I guess I have to play tough teams again. Still, were my Bees really 3 more "results" from winning the 1st Division?

Over the Moon. How can I not be with 3 final day wins that gave us promotion and the FA Cup trophy.

A truly disappointing season, but I am grateful to remain in D1.
Al, which team does your neighbor support?

Relaxed, yet another holiday, however on a serious note, disappointed with the season, div 1 exciting and to see us even mentioned with a chance of winning the title was nice, but a poor start and end put paid to that.

ANXIOUS!
This season should have been a good one for us, but it turnd out to be a real pain in the neck. Losing crucial games by our keepers getting themselves sent off and suspended on a regular basis. Although we had a chance of promotion to the Premier League at the death I doubt we had the strength to stay there next season. Having said that the top two divisions are both really tough now, so next year in division 2 is going to be hard anyway. Most frustrating was not being able to get the firepower up front that I would have liked to give Cole more support so ended up playing Midfield more times than I would have liked.
And now I am anxious for the new season as Captain Cole is now suspended for our first game of next season and Fawlty fell one level short of his training so our forward line for next year is already depleted.

Sad. We deservingly got relegated but our lack of goals is a big concern.
Division 3 here we come.

Ragin - see wall.
It will take me a few seasons to get over this. Not mentally but squad wise. Ragin but only with myself.

Excited - obviously a bit disappointed to come so close to retaining the title and fall short, but if you'd offered me 3rd and a trophy at the beginning of the season I'd have bitten your hand off. My mind has already turned to next season's challenge.

Delighted with a great league campaign and promotion to look forward to. We have a decent T11 and T16 but we move forward with a weak goalkeeping department, so next season could be tough.

Frustrated and delighted. Delighted to win the Youth cup. Normally the latter results in a good league finish, hence the frustration at actually being relegated.

James - I seem to recall Preston won the youth cup last year and were relegated, and Forest won it the year before and were also relegated. It's clearly a new tradition!

Pleased and annoyed
Season went better than expected AP cup win YC semi final good showing in the league.
Annoyed that Scotland have been kicked out the World Cup before its even begun !!

I have to admit I am happy to be back at U1. The last two seasons brought back great memories and it's good to "see" so many familiar faces, as well as getting to know new ones. Cheers!

Everything on the right side of the chart. Plymouth should NOT be this bad... it's not the team... maybe it's the manager...

Hopeful, you never know maybe it this season things will work out ! It's a clean slate. All we need to get sorted is matching results to expectation. At least we not challenged to having to fund any player bonus again this year!
Maybe we should consider introducing a draft system, maybe that might help drag us out of 3rd ... or as the chatter from the dressing room - send the B***** coach on a training class !

Crushed to lose another Cup final (0-9 lifetime), but happy overall. Promoted first season after relegation to D3...where we had not been in a LONG time (proud to say). Also made the semis in the AP, so lots of flashy headlines (and some extra cash), but still an empty trophy case.
