New clubs in League20 (see tables)

This year the Third Division was divided into North and South sections. Third Division South nearly continued the single new Third Division of the previous season. Two new clubs were placed in Third Division South, while 18 of 20 newcomers were placed in Third Division North, as the number of Football League clubs increased from 66 to 86.

Final league tables

The tables and results below are reproduced here in the exact form that they can be found at The Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation website[1] and in Rothmans Book of Football League Records 1888–89 to 1978–79,[2] with home and away statistics separated.

Beginning with the season 1894–95, clubs finishing level on points were separated according to goal average (goals scored divided by goals conceded), or more properly put, goal ratio. In case one or more teams had the same goal difference, this system favoured those teams who had scored fewer goals. The goal average system was eventually scrapped beginning with the 1976–77 season. From the 1894–95 season and until the 1920–21 season the re-election process was required of the clubs which finished in the bottom three of the league.[2]
