Liverpool F.C. won its first championship title since 1946-47, thanks to a spectacular performance in its only second season in the top flight, following a lengthy stay in the Second Division. Manager Bill Shankly was hailed for the success, which meant the Scot had turned Liverpool from an average team in the Second Division to league champions in a little more than four years. Roger Hunt scored 31 league goals, while partner Ian St John managed 21 and Alf Arrowsmith 15, the trio being vital for the side that scored a club record 92 goals in the First Division.
