Sunday, April 26, 1992, will live long in the memory for a generation of Leeds United fans. The Whites beat Sheffield United at Bramall Lane in a five goal nailbiter thanks to goals from Jon Newsome, Rod Wallace and an own goal from Brian Gayle. That win meant Manchester had to win at Anfield to keep their hopes alive. An early Ian Rush strike and a late Mark Walters goal ensured a 2-0 defeat handing Leeds their first championship for 18 years. These fantastic photos show how fans celebrated the historic moment.
