'Heartbroken, but excited for the future'

Earlier we asked you what you made of Coventry's agonising late exit from the Championship play-offs at Sunderland.

Here's a selection of your views, which very much represent the vast majority, it would appear.

Matt: Heartbroken for it to end that way, but that sometimes happens in football and you have to take it on the chin. At least Frank now has a full pre-season and summer transfer window to shape the squad how he wants, and fingers crossed brings in a top-notch striker to put away so many of the chances we create. I'm sad now, and will be for a few days, but bring on the start of the new season and let's just see what happens!

John: Fair play to Sunderland. They came with a gameplan to contain Coventry and absorb the pressure. The Sky Blues in both games had more of the play and had plenty of chances but didn't put them away. They have no-one to blame but themselves. As for conceding at the death, it's happened a lot this season and they need to learn lessons.

Davey: Very much in Frank Lampard we trust. Two points off relegation when he came in and top three form since he took over. Give us an effective transfer window and we can be up there again next season.

Lawrence: Very proud of our City and our team. We've had an outstanding season, so let's have no complaints. Frank is building for the future so let's see what we get next year.

Patrick: I am delighted and filled with excitement for the future of the football club. As heartbreaking as yesterday was, I firmly believe that next year will be our year. City to win the Championship 25-26.

Mark: It was a tough season but we got to our expected position in the end. To lose to the very final touch of a game we dominated was typical of the season. Hopefully more experience gained for the hard-working young players. But desperate disappointment for the amazing supporters. Another rebuild in the summer and then into battle in an even more competitive division!

Dale: They played really well over both games and didn't deserve to lose. Hopefully they will be better next season.

Chris D: Phenomenal effort from 10 of the starting 11 and the subs too. Haji Wright cost us Wembley. Just hoping Frank and his team stay long term and go for it again next season.

Chris F: Heartbreaking and felt we were the better team over both legs and to lose in that manner was shattering. All the best to Sunderland in the final.

John: It's a shame we went out after so much possession and shots on goal but we needed the forwards to show better aggression and motivation which just did not happen but good luck to Sunderland.

Samantha: Absolutely gutted but what a season we've had under Frank Lampard. We go again next season hopefully some new signings. Proud to be Sky Blue.

Adrian: Football is cruel and over the two legs Coventry were by far the better team. If Sunderland play like that in the final we will definitely be playing them next season.

Jack: Heartbroken, thought we were the better side for 120 minutes. But Frank Lampard has done magnificently, bring on next season Sky Blue Army.
