Brilliant!

Absolutely fantastic!
My beloved Sheffield Wednesday have just done it -- the club have gained promotion to the Coca-Cola Championship (rather confusingly the second tier of English football) by beating Hartlepool United, 4-2, after extra time.
I listened to the match online via BBC Radio Five Live, while wearing by blue-and-white-striped club shirt.
This game redefined for me the term "emotional rollercoaster."
Wednesday struck first, just before halftime. Then Hartlepool roared back with a pair of goals and with 10 minutes remaining, it looked like another season in the doldrums for the Owls.
Then, Hartlepool's Chris Westwood pushed Wednesday's Drew Talbot in the penalty area with nine minutes remaining. The referee red-carded Westwood and Steven MacLean scored from the penalty spot for the Owls, knotting the match at 2-2.
Wednesday attacked 10-man Hartlepool throughout the extra 30 minutes. Glenn Whelan scored to give us (yes... us... I sound like a Cubs or Hawkeyes fan... oh dear!) a slim lead.
Talbot scored at the very end of the match to seal it for Wednesday.
Four times the league champions (most recent? 1930?!) and thrice winners of the FA Cup (most recent? gulp... 1935), Sheffield Wednesday have inched closer to the promised land.
If you do not understand this post at all, don't worry. I will sum it all up with one word:
BRILLIANT!
