To say that we have West Ham to "thank" for winning the title is also a load of Bull....the only way that West Ham had the chance to affect the title destination was if Rovers lost against Liverpool, which we did of course, but had we won that last game, Utd would'nt have been given a sniff, so it was Rovers that actually Gifted Utd that chance, we had been in the Box Seat for ages and still were on the final day! The fact is we nearly blew it...Utd did'nt lose it!!
