Unofficial Champions of England: Leeds United 0-1 Bolton Wanderers, 02/03/1996

Gudni Bergsson heads Bolton ahead

Leeds are the English Champions. Did you enjoy it? Good, because now its over.

Three days to be exact. Leeds United's first game in the Premier League for a month and they would have thought bottom side Bolton Wanderers at Elland Road was an easy way to ease back in.

Wrong. Scott Sellars free-kick was headed in by Gudni Bergsson after 16 minutes for the only goal of the game.

Bolton had three crucial points in their battle against relegation and now the Unofficial English Championship.

Gerry Creaney celebrates

Leeds had no opportunity to enjoy their time as English Champions as they were soon back in action with the visit of Manchester City to Elland Road.

City were struggling near the bottom of the table but were hoping for a change in fortunes.

One goal was enough as substitute Gerry Creaney headed in from Steve Lomas' cross deep into the second half.

A second championship for City and a welcome boost in their battle against relegation.

Unofficial Champions of England: Leeds United 2-1 Blackburn Rovers, 29/11/1995

Brian Deane opens the scoring

Blackburn Rovers, Premier League and Unofficial Champions, rocked up at Elland Road for a League Cup tie on the back of a successful title defence against Arsenal.

Leeds took the lead on 21 minutes, Brian Deane capitalising on uncertainty in the Blackburn defence to put the ball beyond the reach of Rovers keeper Tim Flowers.
Tony Yeboah, who didn't score ordinary goals, hit a 25 yarder to double Leeds advantage.

Blackburn did get one back but cheekily, got Leeds to score it for them. The unfortunate Gary Kelly stooping low to head into his own goal.

Leeds were back on top as Unofficial Champions for a second time.
