"We never won anything easily as you know, but we had to get something at Liverpool to clinch it, despite the fact it was the second last match of the season, which we did luckily enough.
"We had a record number of points and we still hadn't clinched it so we never did anything easy.
"To go to Liverpool who were our nearest rivals, if we'd have lost on the night there was still a possibility we could lose it."

Hide AdLeeds were able to celebrate history in front of the away fans, yet manager Revie was keen for them to pay their respect to the home supporters too and instructed captain Billy Bremner and the team to approach the famous Kop end and salute them.
What happened next could be filed somewhere between unlikely and impossible in today's game - the Reds fans conveyed their raucous congratulations to the away team, who had just ended Liverpool's title hopes.
"To go there and get it finished was great," said Giles.
"Then to go to the Kop end who responded brilliantly to us - I think that was Don's idea at the end of the match - them obviously being a great football city responded in the right way.
"That would be my best memory of Leeds.
"There were 40 matches at that time, to lose two matches and get a record number of points was what we had to do and we did it."
Leeds' players stayed on the pitch for 20 minutes lapping up congratulations and savouring their title win in front of the 27,000 strong Kop crowd.
