Leet o Inglis fitbaw champions
Inglis fitbaa champions mean those that wan the heichest league in Inglis fitbaa, which syne 1992-1993 is the Premier League.
Follaein the legalisation o profeesional fitbaa bi the Football Association in 1885,[1] the English Football League wis established in 1888, efter a series o meetins initiatit bi Aston Villa director William McGregor.[2] At the end o the 1888–89 saison, Preston North End wur the first club tae be crouned champions efter completin their fixturs unbeaten.[3]
The first fully profeesional fitbaa competition in the warld, the League's early years wur dominatit bi teams fra the North an Midlands, whaur profeesionalism wis embracit mair readily than in the Sooth.[4] Its status as the kintra's pre-eminent league wis strenthened in 1892, when the rival Football Alliance wis absorbit intae the Football League.[5] Umwhile Alliance clubs comprisit the bulk o the new Second Division, frae which promotion tae the tap level coud be gained. It wis no till 1931 that a Soothren club wur crouned champions, when Herbert Chapman's Arsenal secured the title. Arsenal scored 127 goals in the process, a record for a title-winnin side (tho runners-up Aston Villa ironically scored ane goal mair, a record for the top diveesion).[6]
Rules stipulatin a maximum wage for players wur abolished in 1961. This resultit in a shift o pouer towards bigger clubs.[7] Financial considerations became an even bigger influence frae 1992, when the teams then in the First Division defectit tae shape the FA Premier League. This supplantit the Football League First Division as the heichest level o fitbaa in Ingland,[8] an due tae a series of progressively lairger telly contracts, put walth intae the haunds o tap flicht clubs in a hitherto unprecedentit manner.[9] Aicht clubs hae feenished runners-up, but hae niver wan; ordered chronologically these are: Bristol City, Oldham Athletic, Cardiff City, Charlton Athletic, Blackpool, Queens Park Rangers, Watford an maist recently Southampton.
Preston North End is the anerly umwhile tap-flicht First Division champions no tae play in the Premier League. Aw the clubs which hae iver been crouned champions are still in existence the day an aw tak pairt in the tap fower tiers o the Inglis fitbaa league seestem - the fitbaa pyramid. Sheffield Wednesday are the anerly club who hae iver chyngit their name efter winnin a league title haein been kent as The Wednesday for the first twa o their fower titles.
Manchester United hae wan 20 titles, the maist o ony club.[10] United's rivals Liverpool are seicont wi 18. Liverpool dominatit durin the 1970s an 1980s, while United dominatit in the 1990s an 2000s unner Sir Alex Ferguson. Arsenal are third; their 13 titles aw came efter 1930. Everton (nine) hae enjoyed success throuoot their history, an baith Aston Villa (seiven) an Sunderland (sax) secured the majority o their titles afore Warld War I. Huddersfield Town in 1924–26, Arsenal in 1933–35, Liverpool in 1982–84 an Manchester United in 1999–2001 an 2007–2009 are the anerly sides tae hae wan the League title in three consecutive saisons.[11]
Preston North End wur the leadin team frae the ootset. They wur owertaken in 1894–95 when Sunderland secured their third trophy. Aston Villa's fowert win in 1898–99 gae thaim the record lead which they did no gie up till Arsenal wan their seivent title in 1952–53. Liverpool's 9t title in 1975–76 put thaim tap till Manchester United's 19t trophy gae thaim the lead in 2010–11.
