Leeds United vs Blackburn Rovers History

The Whites enjoyed their most extensive period of success during the late 1960s and early 1970s, during which managers Don Revie and Jimmy Armfield achieved a great deal. Revie led an all-conquering Leeds United side to two domestic titles and a string of other trophies, and Armfield took the team to a European Cup Final, where they were unfortunate to lose to Bayern Munich in contentious circumstances.

Howard Wilkinson then took a side that included the likes of Eric Cantona, Gordon Strachan and Gary McAllister to another title in 1991/92, the last season before the Premier League came into being.

Blackburn Rovers won two domestic titles in the 1910s, and then, under the guidance and backing of owner Jack Walker, they won the Premier League in 1994/95, with Alan Shearer proving the catalyst for that success.

Since then, the club has had more downs than ups and are some way off the side they once were, albeit they still enjoy a fanatical level of support at Ewood Park from fans hoping to see a return to form in the near future.
