Football Trivia

No, Woolwich won it on the last day, but they were top of the table for most of the season. It was losing at home to Derby and drawing at home to Wimbledon in the 2nd and 3rd last games that put them in the position of needing to win 2-0 at Anfield.

Not Derby either. Leeds were top most of that season, but Derby had been top prior to final day.

Manchester City 1968?

Man City didn’t win the FA Cup in 1968. They won the league alright as Man U yet again shit their togs on the run in and lost at Old Trafford on the last day of the season to Sunderland when they only needed a draw to win the title.

Sorry, that was in response to the question about which was the last team to win the league who only were top on the final day.

No, its not Manchester City in 1968. They did come with a late surge winning their last 4 games to capitalise on a late Man U collapse and win it on the last day, but City had been top for most of January and February, before a mini slump saw them lost ground in March. Apart from Man U losing at home to Sunderland last day of the season, they conceded 6 to West Brom at the Hawthorns in the third last game of the season.
