O'Neill's Leicester side won the League Cup again in 1999–2000, this time beating Tranmere Rovers in the Final, the last to be held at the old Wembley Stadium. This saw Leicester awarded a place in the UEFA Cup, alongside fellow English clubs Chelsea and Liverpool. However, O'Neill left Leicester for the manager's job at Celtic on 1 June 2000, and was replaced on 12 June by Peter Taylor. According to Stephen Wagg in the December 2001 issue of "When Saturday Comes": "By contrast [to O'Neill], Taylor was gauchely optimistic". Speaking on BBC Radio Leicester in the summer of 2000, Taylor opined "I've looked around the other squads in the Premiership, and I can only think of six that are stronger than ours. I think we’ve got a good chance of getting into Europe".
