'Relegation arrives with an overwhelming feeling of relief'

This is my third experience of relegation from the top flight, and the first one to arrive with an overwhelming feeling of relief.2007 was all righteous fury at being on the wrong end of the Carlos Tevez affair.As someone who expected relegation before a ball was kicked, there hasn’t been even a faint moment of hope along the way as our soon-to-be-historic defence coughs up goal after goal.
