Preston North End were the first club to do the double way back when Australia was still connected to Gondwanaland or something, before even you and I were born.
I stand corrected Aries; probably should have said first double since 1900 when the number of teams in the old first Division was somewhere near double figures.
On a slightly different tack is it Bolton or Derby who hold the record for the lowest number of points gained in a Premiership season?
AND
Could our illustrious neighbours be in with a chance of lowering that points total this season??
OH I DO HOPE SO!!!
