Remembering Rovers' greatest day 30 years on

Thirty years on it remains one of the most remarkable title triumphs of the Premier League era.
On 14 May 1995, four years after finishing 19th in the old Division Two, Blackburn Rovers were crowned champions of England after pipping Sir Alex Ferguson's Manchester United by one point.
In a thrilling race, Kenny Dalglish's side surged eight points clear only to lose three of their last five games - but they were celebrating after a dramatic final day.
Those who recall that season particularly remember Rovers owner Jack Walker, the Blackburn-born steel magnate who stood on the terraces of Ewood Park before bankrolling his beloved club, as well as the explosive 49-goal partnership between Alan Shearer and Chris Sutton - dubbed the SAS by the media.

Here's a photo from the Blackburn Rovers Hall of Fame dinner when the 1994-95 squad were inducted.
