    Not quite, the pendulum went back and forth a couple of times with McLeish's teams before Walter's return and three in a row and the the UEFA final run.

    It was the financial meltdown and the appointment if McCoist which was the watershed.

     

    Not sure about that.  We've won the league 5 times since O'Neill came in and every one of them could have went either way apart from 09/10 when Mowbray was taig manager.

     

    If it wasn't for out scoring them on the last day in 02/03 and helicopter Sunday our record since 2000 would look pretty grim.  Just shows how good a job Walter did.

    And at home to Galatasaray...Neil McCann header from 6 yards, easier to score, straight at the goalie away from qualification. Monaco... A Lorenzo Amoruso wander up the pitch fuck up away from qualification. 

    Less said about Graz away the better.

    I sat on a bus for near 30 hours to get the Graz game and was greeted with an utterly shambolic performance complete with a fat Danish striker in goals. How we contrived not to qualify from that group after winning the first two games I still can't work out.

     

    oh aye, then came the long return journey home. :no:

    Bayern ended up playing Real in the Semis and I think did the next two years too.

    Used to love watching them two go at each other at the time.

     

    Real Madrid actually lost 3 times to Bayern that year but still went on to win the entire competition.

    This is when the champions league started to get ridiculously bloated.
