Mansfield Woodhouse, actually.
Technically we are still the holders, winning it at the final attempt in 1958 after playing in every season of that competition. I'm pretty sure that if we had been allowed to retain it then I would have heard about it by now. Maybe the two trophies were just reallocated to the newly formed Third and Fourth Divisions, perhaps with winners' plaques removed?

It’s safely stashed with the Cup Final money.

If we find the money is it even legal tender anymore?

Who knows :shrug: I’m fairly certain the Championship winners trophy is the same one the old Division 1 winners lifted though ??? If that helps?
