Portsmouth boss John Mousinho spoke to BBC Radio Solent after their 5-1 defeat at Championship title-winners Coventry.
(On securing Championship survival) "It feels really strange at the moment. It was such a brutal (last) 45 minutes," he said.
"We'd left everything on the pitch over the past couple of weeks and this was one too far.
"I'm absolutely delighted we've stayed up. It's a strange set of circumstances, it does feel a bit weird. But if you had offered me this from any point from October or November onwards I'd have snapped your hand off.
"To stay up with two games to go is a monumental achievement.
"They're the best team in the league by some way. They blew us away in the second half. We couldn't get near them. Thankfully we're not playing them next year."
