It was bound to happen. We had a pretty good run. After all, the last time it was like this was the early to mid 80s.

What's coming is entirely healthy.

I remember the slight air of disbelief when we eventually won that league cup semi final against a Spurs team that included Hoddle, Waddle and Clive Allen. On paper, they should have battered us.

And even then it was obvious we'd lose to Liverpool in the final.
