For @bluelord49 & @Eggs & others - England training at Bellefield Bally at the front in what looks to be either building work or maybe it was getting closed? - notice the office window on the left upstairs where the Catt used to spy from -:D

….building work I imagine, Joey. That flat roof above the changing room remained until the great place was closed. I have a memory of Dave Watson & Steve Bruce sitting together up there watching an Everton v United A Team fixture (Bruce’s son, Alex, was playing for United).
 
2 utility men in there (Cahill an arguable hybrid) Neville at LB and Osman anywhere in midfield. Oh how we'd wish for such strength in depth now. What was it about shopping at harrods or marks & spencer?
We also had many younger players that made the grade in a big way - e.g. no way would we have let a USA left back go for a stupid low fee .....

They were brought through to win trophies etc .....
 


The signing we needed to get us back into contention for titles
Colin Harvey was a great coach, evidently no good managing one to one with the players - came 6th then one poor season nowhere near relegation - had to walk - only if we were in that situation now - doh - won a Charity Shield too......

HK entered back on the scene as a failed Manager search ended - Colin ended back as coach - HK MK 2/3 was never the same as we know ......
