I am so pleased I don’t support a team where I have to celebrate a defeat

They're bigging up the fact we only won 2-1.

The reality is that they had half a game against 10 men and still couldn't win.

Airbrushing history again.

We were all secretly hoping for a big home win, but the reality was that we would be happy beating them, and happy relegating them.

Both of those objectives were achieved.

Shame we didn't put them to the sword, but ho hum. IF they manage to get through the summer without folding, they'll be in Division 3, with a ramshackle ground, an almost useless academy, and a first team worth close to bugger all, and potentially a -15 starting position.

Happy enough with that.

Not to mention suffered a double double defeat, getting relegated earlier than any other side in league history and all at the home of their most hated rivals.
And currently on track to smash the record for the lowest points tally in English football. I believe held by Loughborough in 1899 who managed 8 (two points for a win so 9 if you adjust for inflation). Derby's 11 being the worst in the 3 points era. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but one thing I'm certain is if there's worse out there they at least hit positive numbers.

I really hope they go down with a minus points total.
 
It was totally bizarre watching them applauding like crazy at full time.

I'm thinking what are they celebrating exactly?

Only getting beat 2-1 and confirming relegation at their bitterest hated rivals ground?

Kicking the ball out of play under no pressure numerous times?

Having one shot all game?

Scoring a goal?

Jeez I just don't get it.
 
We set out to do the quadruple and to relegate them today and we achieved it.

It looked like it could have been a rout but in the end it we won it with 10 men. Losing in such insipid fashion against your rivals when they’ve had a man sent off is just as humiliating as a heavy defeat.

Looking at where the clubs are now this century out of 26 seasons we’ll have finished above them 20 times. We’ve had 4 seasons of Premier League football, they haven’t had any. We’ve also beaten them 10 times (including 3 doubles) to their 6.

They are a complete irrelevance.
 
To be fair they did win the second half!

More importantly, they won 6-2 on corners.

I couldn't sleep last night because of this disgrace.

Why do they always win us?

Sheffield Wednesday - the winniest team, in the history of footnall, ever.

Agreed.
And yet the difference in our gates is nowhere near proportional to this dominance.
We rarely fill our ground and they've (relatively) rarely dropped below 80% of our gate.
Their support is insane , in the literal sense of the word.
Strange really.
