League champions

The plan is to have all old league tables for both the Leicestershire Senior League and it's former sister competition, the Leicestershire Combination. Below is a list of all the league champions for the Senior League, with links to the relevant league table(s). The Combination was formed in the early 1970's and league tables prior to the early 2000's are very hit and miss - the ones I have are on the same link(s) below. I have managed to find an old website than has a lot of historical information regarding all things Leicestershire football, and all the old league tables are linked below to a Google docs account.
