Just about the only thing we can brag about in this division

14th May 1995.
Blackburn Rovers were champions of England; a small mill town in East Lancashire, having only just witnessed promotion to the top tier after 26 years in the lower leagues 3 years previously, finally had something to shout about. All thanks to one man, Jack Walker.

Glory days and a once in a lifetime experience for us me thinks.

The first bought English league title, real trend setters.

Congratulations.

The first bought English league title, real trend setters.

Congratulations.

Find out how much United spent to win it in 1993 and '94, then say we we were the first to buy the league.

We've had this debate, United spent a little more on that squad but it was over 8 years not 3

One of my pals still supports Blackburn and all because of that season.

Glory hunting gone wrong!

21 years ago today we won 3-1 away at Tranmere in the playoffs after finishing second in this division.

I was at Silverstone watching Damon Hill in the British F1 Grand Prix, ended up pretty much missing the whole of the race to watch the football in a cooperate tent, was only 17 nailing free ale & quaffing free sandwiches all day. It's this day I realised how boring motor racing is, the one and only occasion I've ever been to a 'live' race.
