That home defeat to Burnley a fortnight ago is the one result which really stands out for Hull City. Incredibly costly.
We are into the final minute of added time. Blow up ref!
A dejected hush sweeps across the stadium. Many fans of course feared the worst today but it doesn't make the sense of loss any easier to deal with.
Can Hull come back from this? Will Steve Bruce stay on? These are questions for another day.
Hull City
John Carver points to a friendly face in the crowd as the final whistle blows and punches the sky.
Steven Gerrard strolls across to the travelling fans to applaud them, before taking a deep breath and heading off for the tunnel.
A difficult final day at the office.
Former Arsenal defender Martin Keown
Final Score
"QPR scraped through the play-offs and I do no think anyone should be surprised they have gone straight back down.
"They are going to lose quite a few of their players like Charlie Austin."
Villa's FA Cup final warm-up has not gone well.
Newcastle's fans are on their feet in anticipation of the final whistle and the party that will follow.
Vurnon Anita - a very relieved man after squandering that excellent chance - has been brought off for Yoan Gouffran.

Final Score
"There are defining results, if you are going lose games and lose them in this matter - then no matter how far behind someone you are, things could change.
"If you look at it, Brendan Rodgers has not been able to convince Gerrard to stay, Sterling is obviously not happy and it has been nowhere near as good as last year.
There will be a major board meeting after this match, maybe a new manager will be able to convince Sterling to stay?"
Thirteen shots for Hull today but no goals.
Steve Bruce has been tough to watch today. Animated on the touchline, he's lived and breathed every minute of the game. His side gave him everything today, they created some great chances and had United on the rack at times.
But they are going down. Tough to take for Bruce.
There will be SEVEN EXTRA minutes though.
Former Arsenal defender Martin Keown
Final Score
"There is a huge slice of luck for Jonas Gutierrez. It is great for him though, you can only imagine what he has been through. He is going to be synonymous with this season in Newcastle fans' minds."
Peter Crouch has become the leading scorer of headed goals in Premier League history as he beanpoles above the Liverpool defence to bring a miserable end to the afternoon for his former club and Steven Gerrard.
It is Liverpool's heaviest league defeat since 1954.
Loic Remy arrives late on the scene to bookend Chelsea's triumphant season with a tap-in.

Leicester are signing off in style as £10m man Andrej Kramaric puts the final nail in QPR's coffin.
Stephen Quinn has a shot saved but as big John Hartson says, it doesn't matter any more. Newcastle are going to win, and Hull are going down.
