Was more fun to experience, a journey no pressure to win, atmosphere fantastic because of that. Difficult to say which was the best from a purely football point of view. Both quite different but beautiful to watch. The team play of one and the team play as a sum of the individuals in the latter. Poor 94/95. Some of the performances that season were incredible. And 92/93 for that matter. Some clubs must never see football like was played in those. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fountain Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 The partnership with Beardsley was a good as any team has had. I was gutted when he was sold, however KK had enough brownie points in the bag. Gutted he won so many trophies at Man Utd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astroblack Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 Sheringham’s England record is shocking and he kept out the best strikers of that generation in Wright, Ferdinand and Cole. Never understood his selection. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally my all time favourite season was the 92/93 one. The first few home games of that season were just totally off the scale. We had season tickets so didn't have time get there too early to avoid being locked out and I remember we'd park up at the Dental Hospital around 1.45/2pm and as soon as we opened the car doors you could hear the crowd inside SJP already in full voice because the standing areas were already full. Walking down to the ground and hearing all the singing from inside was class. Loved those days! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How Sheringham kept Beardsley out of that England side from 95 to 96 is the great mystery, other than Venables loving Spurs players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too say the inclusion of sheringham, Anderson and Barmby was biased would be the understatement of the century. The treatment of Beardsley was a disgrace and a total disregard of his talents (when you also consider his international pedigree) not just by the England manager but the cockney led media as a whole. Only the late Jimmy hill showed any dismay when Beardsley was axed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It usually helps when the England manager has the London football press at his Scribes nightclub for free drinkies on regular basis. Fewer questions get asked - you can even resign over mounting legal issues and they don’t say a peep. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
