On a memorable Easter Monday Liverpool secured a third league
title with a win over the previous seasons champions.
With four games remaining the Reds were five points clear at
the top of the league and knew that a win coupled with a Spurs
defeat would guarantee the title.
However Burnley werent going to relinquish their title
easily, as they were still mathematically in the hunt themselves.
Over 50,000 fans packed into Anfield and saw us win 2-1 thanks
to goals from Dick Forshaw and Harry Chambers.
There was then an anxious wait to hear the Spurs score. After
what seemed like an eternity it was announced that they had
lost 2-1 at Oldham and we were the new champions.
It was the first time in our history we had clinched the title
at Anfield and there were huge celebrations. There were further
joyous scenes at the end of the season when the players and
officials paraded the trophy in a horse drawn carriage.
