Yes every fan talks about the Oxford game yes it probally saved HK his job no one will ever know , but many players reckon that game was the turning point as we went on a fantastic run of hardly being beaten - that then led to a set core team that could deal with injuries, and still go on even better plus HK did it with virtually with bargain players as we were as a club not that rich .......Andy Gray, Alan Harper, Kevin Richardson - even Bobby Mimms all covered areas were top,players were injured- indeed our big splash on Gary Lineker £ 800,000 was the only hiccup,ironically of us losing a title plus an FA Cup .......great day out that , and a brillant following considering what are crowds at home were like at home in the run up to that game
Even today spending huge is not the guarantee of buying the league now as it once was imo Leicester being the only exception of proving that so far......
ATM the premium is tight at the top for now at least ......
