but they were in good enough shape...

to get promoted straight back up (and then come 3rd in their first season back up). And he achieved rather more than Worthy in between (a League title, 42 game unbeaten run in the top flight, League Cups, two European Cups is slightly more impressive than one deserved and rather pitiful relegation. We are not playing worse football now than we ever have under Worthy - all that has changed is that the spirit and togetherness seems to have gone.
