Good memories and days.

The last time Blackburn Rovers won The Premier League
Uncle jacks blue and white army 🔵⚪️🔵⚪️🔵⚪️
The Leicester city before it
Like citeh, you never won anything in the premier league era, you cheats you bought it.

It was a fluke season.
jack walker did spend a lot of money but kenny turned them into a winning group. kenny leaving when he did stopped the train sadly.
The odds the same thing can happen today are CRAZY :Д ✨ Man City like Man Utd are about to face West Ham 😂 Let’s gooo Arsenal ❤️🤍✨
West Ham won the league for Blackburn in 1995. Could they win it for Arsenal this weekend perhaps
West Ham to beat Man City on the last day and Arsenal to win at home will give Arsenal the title. Stranger things have happened in football.
Blackburn were the biggest spenders in English football when they won the Premier League and were runner ups the year before – it was less shocking than people seem to remember.
The closest premier league season ever it went to the final whistle.
Today 14.5.24 marks 29 years for the very great day
Shocked? They bought the title 😂
Was not James anymore, you know Bibles against Animism , Berhalah from Henry, ISA, Mugabe
Blackburn were the Chelsea of their day, they spent so much money
Never forget , age 16 in rileys snooker club preston lancashire
Which century was this ?
Just brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. Did I say it was brilliant? As a life-long Gooner, seeing BR win this title was just fantastic, and they thoroughly deserved it, they really did. Great memories, and yet another reminder of why the EPL is, was and continues to be the best league in the world.
😊😊❤❤⚽️⚽️
Liverpool fan was there and we all erupted also
Imo Leicester winning the PL was a much bigger shock.
The good times. Maybe again one day. God Bless Jack Walker RIP ✌️❤️
They spent big and got big
and they lift the title at anfield. crazy man
They didnt shock the league! for about 5 years they had an owner who spent more than most and had already came close! Not everyone watching these videos is 14!
I remember Rovers winning the third divison title in 1975, if you would have said to me that in 20 years we would win the first divison or premier league title in 20 years time id be asking you what drugs you were taking, for people of my age it happened we were there, a golden age for us all
Wasn't exactly a suprise or shock season – they spent big for the time, breaking the tranfer record twice with Shearer, then Sutton. Also broke goalkeeping transfer record with Tim Flowers. They fully deserved the success, but wasn't exactly as David / Goliath as presented here.
I am getting chills running down my spine watching this,this evokes glorious memories especially since this was at a time when I first watched the English premier league. Eventhough I was an avid Liverpool supporter,I admired Shearer,Sutton and Colin Hendry.
deeee only season been
watchd with full football understanding though ….
âaaa wezZ somehow e fan for coventry playstyle backthen, and e bit of de Astonz de Villa !!!
😅😅😅
Now this story should be similar to the Manchester ending in 2012
I love you blackburn, I'm a huge fan from Argentina and I fell in love with this team.
God I wish we could go back to those days, our glory days have long since passed and the only way to regain them in today's game would be at the mercy of billionaire Arab, no thanks.
What a team though, what a season, 90's premiership for me was the peak for English football.
I wish i was born to see this 🌹
Only one Jack Walker
The giant killers killed by bad owners and joke of a owners fit test by premier league
SAS was invincible
King Kenny ❤1at edinburgh Sutton has to much to say 0 respect
magical, no other word for it, COYB 's. what a fairytale ! I'm so glad to see that Mr Walker got to see his, and our dream come true !
Kenny winning the prem at anfield🥲
What a team we had that season ….
If Jack walker didn’t die rovers would still be challenging now
Litsening to this on the final day commentary on bbc short wave radio . What memories.
