Our fairytale finish beckons

THE afterglow continues. Fergie bowing; Park scintillating; the face of John Terry; the old OT atmosphere back for a rare cameo... in fact, it felt like just about every minute of Sunday’s proceedings contained something to warm the most jaded of Red hearts.

We had all plotted out the different ways this league season could end but, as we stand now, isn’t this the best of all worlds?

A potential celebratory triptych — champions-elect Sunday, champions-in-fact Saturday, and then champions-crowned against Blackpool.
