A dominant 3-0 win at Blackburn was enough to confirm us as champions for a third season in succession – the first time any club has achieved that feat.
That followed hard on the heels of our Under-18s clinching the Premier League North title on Saturday before our first team then reached the FA Cup final.
A second half brace from leading scorer Carlos Borges allied to a first half Dire Mebude penalty was enough to secure a 16th league win of the season to ensure the crown remained at the Academy Stadium.

“When I was given the captaincy at the start of the season it was the aim to win the title and to win it the way we have is so satisfying.”
