2018/19 and 1994/95 the same thing happened that has never happened at any other time for a team winning the English Championship - what is it?
 
2 thoughts. Either the amount of times the lead changed or the title was decided by a single point?
 
Not the answer I was looking for, there have been several by a point, not sure how many time Blackburn, Newcastle, United changed leaders in 94/95 but doubt it is a record.

United did at boro in 1996 and City did in 1968 (aways) plus probably lots lots more.
 
Blackburn have had the only PL winners party at Klanfield?

It is definitely the only times when 2pts for a win would have changed the title outcomes (thank you Jimmy Hill) and also the only times when the alternate points system would mean second place would have swapped with first.

It seems there are no occasions where second place would have swapped with first if it had always been 3pts but in 1974/75 the THIRD placed team, Ipswich, would have swapped with champions Derby County, with the team missing out -- Liverpool, who came second.
