Treble Win

Back in the summer of 2020, Jimbo and co passed the time reviewing classic Premier League campaigns. Here from the vault, we bring you the thoughts of Michael Cox, Daniel Storey and Matt Davies-Adams on the 1998/99 season, when there were many twists and turns but one team won it all. It was the best season ever to be a Man United fan with Sir Alex Ferguson's side taken right down to the wire but winning the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League. But what else about 98/99 have you forgotten? Di Canio shoving a referee? Liverpool having joint managers? West Ham finishing 5th? Relive one of the most dramatic seasons in Premier League history.
