Just thinking back to that time, we were very close to getting 4th in 03/04 I remember, I think we finished 3 points off Liverpool that season which was closer than we got in 08/09 or 09/10.
Game that sticks in my mind is a 0-0 at home to Newcastle towards the end, they had a player sent off after 15 minutes but we couldn't break them down as Woodgate as inspired. If we'd won that day, I think we probably would've done it.
