I remember it being a double whammy at the end of 84-85 season.

After the glory of the Milk cup win followed by relegation after Coventry City were allowed to play outstanding games several weeks after the season had ended winning them all against teams on the beach . Then the Scouse holigans caused all that trouble in Brussels banning us from Europe for the next three seasons. Still bitter about it TBH.
