    A Stewardess came to see me during the flight to inform me that the Captain had been trying to get updates, but German ATC didn’t understand his request.
    The Captain did come to see me to explain that he couldn’t get any info.
    He did say that as soon as we landed he would pick the internet up and let me know the score.
    Within two minutes of landing, the stewardess informed me the pilots priority would be to sort paperwork out and it may take 10 minutes for him to go online to get the result.
    Within 30 seconds of the aircraft coming to a stop, the Captain opened the cockpit door and informed me at 7.55pm that we had won 2-1.
    Full credit to Jet2.
    What a great story Stoney!!!

    Must have been your best ever ending to a flight surely pal?

    Hope you had a great holiday buddy!!

    Like Hazza, the aspect that is taking some time to sink in for me is not the match itself (which we deserved to win) but the fact that that we have bounced straight back up to Level 2. Our previous three spells out of Level 2 were 23 seasons, 18 seasons and 9 seasons. It's an amazing achievement that we've returned so quickly

    More so Mike when you think that on the other occasions we dropped down to the 4th tier before climbing back. Given the number of points we finished with last time in the championship many thought it would be a relegation scrap. It is amazing that we have found a manager within the club who has turned things round so quickly.
