It depends who you are and what you're used to. For us winning two Challenge Cups and a minor premiership in three years is a glory period because we've won nothing for ages - before that under Alex Murphy we won a minor premiership and a Challenge Cup and lost a CC final, and that counted as a period of relative 'glory' for us for the next three decades.
I expect for Leeds fans, the Graham Murray era, which delivered a Grand Final and a Challenge Cup win, seemed like a period of relative success at the time, after a long spell without major honours, but now the Murray era probably doesn't seem anything special. But Hull fans probably still view the Kear/Sharp era of 2005-06, which delivered the same as Murray for Leeds, as a period of success.
