00:00Tim Sherwood the Blackman captain gets the ball off the line it's Kennedy's

00:09floated corner the header comes in first from John Scales a hook shot by Nigel

00:15glove

00:29this is Pierce

00:35oh that's a great touch by Shearer right to the path of Ripley Jeff Kenner's made a

00:40run on this side Shearer yes

00:45oh yes that's what they wanted

00:50Blackburn in front in 20 minutes and who else but Shearer

00:56celebrations all over the place at that end Ripley got put away by Shearer's

01:02initial pass what a way to make a goal and then to score one look at this the

01:0734th of the season in the Premiership alone for Alan Shearer he equals Andy

01:12Cole's record but more important he gives Blackburn the lead that they so

01:16dearly wanted today with a perfect finish

01:22Ripley all mistake by Harkness and Sutton is in for Blackburn the shot hits bad Sutton

01:29still it's Shearer David James down at the post goal kick they thought it was the second one

01:41we are not worthy are the signals to Shearer scales coming in with the header Fowler

01:48not away yet even it is now

01:50well it is so far so good for those supporters from Blackburn if it stays like this they have

02:01only got to wait another 45 minutes

02:05well the thought occurs to me as that ball runs out that Liverpool are playing towards the end where Arsenal

02:13produced two goals out of almost nothing in 1989 to turn that one round

02:19so you cannot allow yourself to start assuming that Blackburn have clinched it yet

02:32this is Redknapp Michael Thomas on the other side now will remember all about that

02:37it runs on to Barnes

02:49this was an inviting opportunity for Barnes to try from 30 yards

02:54this is Redknapp Michael Thomas on the other side let's say it's LeSso

03:05Shearer

03:18free kick

03:19it's a little barge

03:21by Henning Berg

03:22says David Ellery

03:23and allows the play

03:24to go on

03:24from the quickly taken

03:25kick to Redknapp

03:26this is Clough

03:28Michael Thomas

03:31Barnes

03:36Redknapp

03:45Clough

03:46McManaman

03:49and outside him

03:51is Kennedy

03:51oh it's there

03:56the equaliser

03:57it's John Barnes

03:59suddenly the scene

04:04changes

04:05the Liverpool

04:07captain

04:07puts them level

04:09and

04:11a well taken

04:12goal it is too

04:13Liverpool move the ball

04:14all the way along

04:15the line

04:16McManaman

04:17fed Kennedy

04:18another one of those

04:21good left wing crosses

04:22and John Barnes

04:23came away from the defender

04:24and rifled it in

04:25with his left foot

04:26it's a great finish

04:28by Barnes

04:28of that there is no doubt

04:30down where Flowers

04:31couldn't get it

04:32if you trace that move way back

04:37you would find that it happened when

04:39Liverpool took a quick free kick

04:41on this near side

04:43following an offence

04:44by Henning Berg

04:45and Blackburn I don't think

04:46ever got their concentration back

04:48it's one all

04:50it's one all

04:51now then

04:52is there yet

04:53a twist

04:55championship tale

05:00oh he was robbed

05:03by Jamie Redknapp

05:04look at this

05:05Robbie Fowler

05:06on the chase

05:07Pearce is coming across

05:13McManaman

05:19David

05:21that is challenged

05:21on Robbie Fowler

05:23who asks

05:24and

05:24in asking

05:25somebody's upset the referee

05:27this is what happened

05:32in the penalty area

05:33there's Fowler

05:34David Ellery

05:35could not have been

05:36better placed

05:37Shearer chasing

05:44Babb

05:44it's a bit short

05:45Shearer's in

05:46oh and Sutton's there

05:47and it's been cleared

05:48by John Scales

05:50unbelievable

05:52oh

05:56look at this

06:00it's a bad mistake

06:01actually by Phil Babb

06:02Shearer's in

06:03James is beaten

06:04Sutton's there

06:05didn't get hard enough

06:06contact on the ball

06:08John Scales cleared

06:09caught as a Blackburn

06:10Pierce is up

06:12Hendry's up

06:13Henning Berg is up

06:15there's Berg

06:17they're still picking themselves

06:21off the floor here

06:22injury

06:22well this was extraordinary

06:27there's nothing David James

06:29can do here

06:30the ball's gone past him

06:31but Sutton didn't get enough

06:32power on it

06:33to send it beyond

06:34the retreating scales

06:36foul out to Kennedy

06:43he's lifted it up

06:44John Barnes is coming in

06:45and on the break

06:48Tim Sherwood

06:49they've got three against

06:50three Blackburn and

06:51Sutton

06:51is away on the left

06:52Alan Shearer in the middle

06:54Sherwood trying to get there

06:55it's still Sutton

06:56and if he could have found

06:57Sherwood

06:58but it's still Sutton

06:59deflection

07:00oh it's gone wide

07:02it hit a Liverpool player

07:07as Chris Sutton

07:09struck it on the volley

07:10Michael Thomas

07:11and it could have gone anywhere

07:13it just went the other side

07:14of the post in fact

07:15Sutton and Shearer

07:18in the six yard box

07:19Hendry

07:20Pearce and Berg

07:21to come in behind

07:22oh and Hendry no

07:25Pearce

07:26oh

07:27James was lucky

07:28he missed the first one

07:30and now he's thrown the ball out

07:33to Hartness

07:35who suddenly appears to be playing on the left wing

07:37that

07:37well it's

07:39it's beyond logic now

07:43and the 3,000 from Blackburn

07:46still don't know

07:47their team's fate

07:48and the

07:56the cop

07:57roaring on Liverpool

07:58Matt Mannerman again

07:59free kick

08:00foul by Batty is it

08:02it's a free kick to Liverpool

08:07just in case you wanted some more drama

08:10Redknapp lines the ball up

08:14and Redknapp shoots

08:16it's in

08:17it's in

08:18it's a goal by Jamie Redknapp

08:21Liverpool lead 2-1

08:23they just can't take it in Blackburn

08:29all round the ground

08:34there's cheering anyway

08:36Redknapp has scored

08:40to make

08:40and Blackburn are suddenly celebrating

08:42they must have heard something else

08:44from West Ham

08:45I don't believe any of this

08:48it's just

08:48too much like a fairy story

08:50they're 2-1 down

08:52and they're embracing

08:53what can you say about this

08:58and the whistle's gone

09:03well amazing scenes

09:09Blackburn have lost here

09:11they've lost here

09:14but they are champions

09:15that's what the crowd is saying

09:21I don't think I've ever seen anything like that

09:28in 25 years of commentating

09:30Jamie Redknapp

09:33smashed the ball in the net

09:36but suddenly

09:39the final score came in from West Ham

09:42and Blackburn knew they'd done it anyway

09:45they'd lost the battle

09:54but won the war

09:55because United of course were held

09:57now if you were a Blackburn supporter

09:58the last time they won the championship

09:59more power to you

10:00but what a finish to the 1995 premiership title

10:03and we can now hear the thoughts

10:04of the Blackburn players

10:05and of course their manager

10:07only the third to win an English league championship

10:09with two different clubs

10:10Kenny Dalgleish

10:11you get a feeling that it's going to be a good day

10:15it's going to be successful

10:16irrespective of what happens out there

10:20I mean I just had a feeling

10:21that it was going to be our day

10:22sometimes it goes the other way for you

10:27and that's the worst days you can get

10:28but as I say today I thought

10:30it was going to be a day

10:32that we were going to be successful

10:33and it's a fairytale coming here

10:35because if we can't win it

10:36Ewood Park

10:37this is the second best place to win it

10:38I mean they won

10:40they've no lacked his points

10:41because it ain't even

10:43could I just take you back four years

10:45to that moment when you decided

10:46to bring in Kenny Dalgleish

10:48how important was that looking back

10:49well I think it speaks for itself

10:52from where we were

10:52we got promotion

10:54then into the Premier League

10:56and we finished I think fourth

10:57and then we finished runners up

10:58and then we won it

11:00and we didn't really plan to win

11:02until next year

11:02so we've got another bonus

11:04so we'll have to win next year now

11:05we thoroughly deserved it

11:07I mean at Manchester United

11:08it'll go on about the loss of

11:09Cantona and Keane

11:10and Giggs and Kanchelskas

11:11but if you look at our injury list

11:13as well

11:13it's just as worse

11:14we've got Wilcox

11:16Warhurst

11:17Batty

11:17Gallagher

11:18we've been without

11:19Batty and Gallagher

11:21for a whole season nearly

11:22and there's millions of pounds

11:24worth of talent there

11:25and to be without talent like that

11:26it hurts

11:27and it hurt us

11:28but to our credit

11:29we've battled all season

11:31and we've not got the right result

11:34today

11:34but West Ham have done us

11:35some massive fear

11:35you
