Some footage from 02/03 season I’ve noticed.

Football taught by Denis Smith.

Some of the stuff Trundle was doing on the pitch was mind-boggling when you watch it back, could fashion a chance from nothing. Barely believable that we once had players of this quality, not to mention Ferguson and Carlos Edwards.

One for sparky. Essential viewing.
Watched it start to finish and it was interesting that, whereas we scored goals all through the season it was only in the second half of the season , when we tightened up our defence that we went on that long unbeaten run.
We played 3-5-2 , same as now , but apart from better finishers it highlights how we need a bit of class in midfield if we are to progress.
Carlos Edwards and Darren Ferguson were a class apart , but the goalkeepers we used were nothing special.
We also had a manager and assistant who knew what they were doing.
