Thanks for the info - and kind words - Genghis.
I would like to say the success was all down to my first-class project management skills, but I'd be lying through my teeth! It was purely and simply through being a tenacious Scouser (accent long since faded but spirit remaining) and refusing ever even to countenance defeat. Remember, the only team ever to have come back from 3-0 down to win the UEFA Champions League is Liverpool.
It is that spirit which got us through. Many said we couldn't do it, we proved them wrong.
