Re: Remember, they didn't buy the league.....

Not quite, I'd say. The two seasons where they spent the most I.e 1992/93 and 1993/94, did they win the League in either of those seasons? No. The club that spent the most in the 1994/95 season was Everton, not Blackburn. Everton won the FA Cup that year in 1995. That is Everton's last trophy win t...

Since match day 34. The last 5 matches Blackburn’s magic number has dropped by 27 from 20 to -7, with us affecting it by 13 and the other 14 from them. The most a magic number can drop by in 5 matches is 30!!
