On this day in 1954, Wolverhampton Wanderers won their first ever top flight title with a 2-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur.
Wolves had come very close to winning the First Division on three separate occasions in 1938, 1939 and 1950 but finished runners up at the end of all three campaigns. The 1953-54 season saw them go neck and neck against West Bromwich Albion. The final fixture of the season seemed decisive as Wolves only had a two point lead over West Brom.
Wolves hosted Spurs at the Molineux while the Baggies were down south at Portsmouth.
