Like I said above, they had a bad season after major changes to the team. We on the other hand have been getting steadily worse for three seasons. IL acknowledged this in his speech. Hethrington put his coach on notice early this season when things started poorly.

And let's not underestimate the effect of your opponents in a final ban arguably the best full back in the competition just before the final and the effect that will have had on a team who looked streets ahead of the rest.

You mean that team with a new coach who their fans love, that we beat twice last season - and should have won all 3 if Tierney had punched that bomb into touch !
