Twitter users reacted to list of latest promotions and relegations in the EFL and non league…
ON ROTHERHAM:
@CoreyUTB: Thank fuck for that, one bogey team gone
@JordTheMiller: The club is in a mess from top to bottom. I bet the cleaners are still leaving shit in the toilets. All people keep saying is get rid. We can’t afford anybody else it’s plan and simple. You can’t blame LR for the mess the clubs in and not having the right investment. #rufc
@andyinbeijing: Commiserations. Good luck next season. Sorry if those noisy Argyle celebrations stung a bit, but you would do the same in our situation.
@PeteDudgeon1: Always enjoy Rotherham away. Genuinely gutted for your fans. They deserve a better fight than this.
@PFCjohnny: True fans who support their local team and will always have pride in their local team. You will be back.
@fatawulcfc: Rotherham promotion 24/25
@BCFC_will_: Unfortunate situation lads, all the best next season I’m sure you’ll be back you always do
@tomb337: in the nicest way possible please stay down
@Dylan_SCFC: never come back
@CCFCSBA_: Unlucky lads, good luck for next season 🤝
@adawri81: Absolutely shocking season.

ON CARLISLE:
@EithneNTFC: Good luck next season, hopefully we will be playing you again in League One soon
@ashleyh19861: Genuinely sorry to see you guys go. Hope Simmo gets the chance to bring you straight back up next season
@andrewhoddie: Been an awful season on the pitch, was always going to be difficult this season. Looks like it’s going to be a busy summer at BP with all of the off field improvements planned. Recruitment needs to be much more successful in the summer, retained/released list interesting
@fish_blues: Relieved it’s finally done. Focus on overhauling the squad for nx season. Build the club on & off the pitch with new owners. That’s the best thing to happen to us in yrs 💙🇺🇸
@Tomw0892: Hi @SkyBetLeagueTwo we are back. We will be 100% back and back stronger. Time to prepare properly for next season now 🔵
@Bexxy1976: All the best lads… Sorry it had to be confirmed at our place but hope to have another weekend in your city again soon 🔜 🫶🏻#CUFC #NTFC
@TiaMilanx: Unlucky lads, brilliant fans probably one of my favourite away fans down here and to bring 676 on a 292 mile trip fair play to you all, all the best next season 💙
@Pompeyalbie: Shame, lovely bunch of fans who came south to Fratton. Good luck next year
@F1footballfan1: Sorry to see you lads go down. Brilliant fans. Hope you come back up
Full time.
Defeat confirms our relegation back to League Two.
Thank you for your support today and all season – we’ll be back 💙 #cufc pic.twitter.com/COANGa4pwT

ON TAMWORTH:
@JakePetrolhead: Been a very rough decade for the Lambs, even falling out the National League north for a while. Glad to see the hometown club get over the line, back to where they belong.
@nickadams3497: Hard to fault them. Haven’t blown teams away but got the job done week in week out.
@sammyleeeeeeee: 🥹🥹 2 promotions in a row. My club ❤️
@MustBeTheJanay: At the beginning of this season I never would have thought this would have happened. What a brilliant afternoon. Chuffed to have been there. Thanks for making a weird 12 months a bit brighter
@TFCSocialPod: So, so pleased. ❤️ This has to go down as one of the club’s all-time great seasons, surely? Very strong division and Tamworth have won it by a country mile 🏆
@MollettCallum: What a fucking team, what a club going up twice in a rowwww 🏆🏆
@tinkzox: Honestly an unreal achievement for them and well deserved, was horrible to play against both times 👏
@chesterblue09: Fair play some achievement coming up last season and winning the title! Congratulations from a Chester fan. Good luck next season ⚽️
@KarlJames_94: Fair play to you. We couldn’t compete with the quality of your defence! All the best! #UTI
@dannewell190: Fair play lads. Not the prettiest side to watch but certainly the most effective 👏🏻
@11_boucher: Congratulations lads!! Shown all season you’ve been number 1. Defensively so impressive and hopefully we meet you guys next season in the national league, but if not good luck for next season
