There was a lot of talk after the Coventry match that they outplayed us, and deserved to win, this was completely wrong, they finished below us in the league, and apart from the first 30 mins in the home match where they did play better, we were the better side over both of the games , and in fact going into the second half, we should have been 3-2 up on aggregate.
I think Hardy self destructed, it was only after this point, he started spending lots of money over the summer , then sacking nolan and kewell , and spending even more, to get back what he thought he had lost
The fact is things could have turned out very differently if we had won that match, we could have quite easily been in the championship today like Coventry, obviously not guaranteed but is is possible
