1999 vs 2019

[Tubey]

There's no comparison - the Smith era was worse.

That said, Smith was a far better manager than Silva.

We like to tell ourselves we were masterminds of survival. I am of the view we just got really lucky.

The pressure going into the Coventry game that season (not the Kendall one) was enormous. I remember a huge win at newcastle around that time too. But yes Coventry at home, Campbell got his first 2 goals I think, but it was almost at the point where if we lost it we were gone.

Super Kev surely earned the title super the hard way.
