I was in a pub in Hamburg for that game. Jeez, did I get banjoed. As the 'only fox in the pub' I was noticed and had a few beers bought for me. I think I missed a phone call too, didn't recognise the number.

Useful chart showing why we won the league (by doing things differently to rivals) and why our determination to become the same as everyone else is so disappointing and, ultimately, doomed to failure.

Exactly. There is not 'one way' to play football. You can win ugly and you still get the trophy.

This chart really doesn't say much without showing the other teams in the given seasons that these champions played. And even then, I'm not sure it would say that much

10 years ago today. Knockaert scores the winner at Forest to take us into the play offs. And yes, that's Harry Kane in the background.

It’s great to look back on that FA Cup win from two years ago…a moment I’ll never forget.

But it also does put into context what an almighty cock up this has been.

5th place and an FA Cup win. Two years later, probable relegation.

I’m staggered at how badly they can **** this up.
