'Loudest crowd I've ever heard'

Earlier we asked what you made of Sunderland's dramatic conclusion to the second leg of the play-off semi-final against Coventry.

Here are a selection of the views we received.

Jonny: If the boys do get promoted, then they've deserved it. Even if they only stay there for one season, so be it. It's the experience they've wanted and battled for. Howay the lads!

Rob: God knows how we managed to get there but we did. Two teams with shocking Wembley results - should be interesting.

John: Fantastic finish but we only came alive in the second half of extra time. We need to be more positive in the final and leave Isidor on the bench in favour of a midfielder.

David: Loudest crowd I've heard. Roaring SAFC on till the very end. Players step up on nights like this and Ballard stood on our shoulders and delivered. Thank you all.

James: Not the best performance but I feel we deserve to be in the Prem more so than a long-ball/long-throw team like Coventry. As a southern Sunderland fan with little affinity to my hometown, the club is how me and my brother have always related to our ancestry and family in the north east. It's my identity, my home. My dad wouldn't let me support another team when I was a kid, even when I tried - and I'm so glad now that he didn't.

Colin: A brilliant and controlled two-leg performance by Sunderland. Some hairy moments but thoroughly deserved the win. Dan Ballard was superb upon his return to the team, capping it all perfectly with his last-gasp goal. Howay the Lads!

Michael H: Absolutely buzzing, Ballard worthy of scoring the winner. The team were brilliant over the two legs, as were the fans

Bob: My son and I set off at 3.30 from South Manchester to go to the match. Closures of the M60 and then the M62 meant that we never made it. Gutted, the atmosphere at the SoL looked electric, really wished we could have been there. Not the same watching on TV but still did a lap of the house when we scored.

Robert: Very disappointed in the performance but another smash and grab. We looked tired and out of ideas but roll on Wembley, a game that could change everything.

Jack: I didn't see that coming. I think it goes to show what a determined bunch of players Sunderland actually possess. To have that sort of end to a season and still being able to go and beat a team like Coventry over two legs is a massive accomplishment. You never know what to expect as a Sunderland supporter. Sheffield United I feel are a class above Coventry however, it's going to a tough tough game in the final but hopefully we can overcome the challenge and make it back to the Premier League after way too long away.

Chris: What an achievement to get to Wembley. Whatever happens, Regis Le Bris and the players have been fantastic this season. One final push from the lads and you will all be legends.

Angela: Absolutely over the moon for the fans in The Stadium of Light - what a way to win.

Michael: We played a dangerous game - the best team lost but we stayed in the game and scored an incredible last-gasp winner. Too often on the wrong end of last-gasp winners. Haway me bonny lads!
