Invincibles This Week: 2004 starts with a draw

Each week, we'll reminisce about our incredible Invincible season 20 years on by looking back at what was going on at the club on and off the pitch, as well as remembering key news stories and the pop culture buzz at the time.

Last week, we enjoyed back-to-back wins over the Christmas period with victories over Wolves and Southampton, but 2004 wouldn’t start the way we wished.

Setting the scene

We had ended 2003 second in the Premier League table, just a point behind Manchester United and started the new year by thrashing Leeds United in the FA Cup third round.
