Got a trivia night tomorrow night and the theme is 1989.
Can anyone tell me who won the Premier League in 1989?

THere was no premier league in 1989 would be the correct answer. Back then it was called the first division. In 1991/92 it changed name to the Premier League.

I can't be bothered looking it up but I think it might be A r s e nal.

Umm-ahh, bypassed the swear filter (can be a pain in the r's).
Looked very funny when it said "Behindinal".  :D

Eddie Lawson
I used to love the bikes back in those days.  Wayne Rainey and my favourite Kevin Schwanz (mad Texan lol).

1991/92 was the last year the top flight was actually referred to as the 1st division. Just for the record Leeds United won the title.
1992/93 was the first year of the Premier League which Manchester United won.
