The1893–94 season was the sixth season ofThe Football League.

Final league tables

[edit]

Beginning with the season 1894–95, clubs finishing level on points were separated according to goal average (goals scored divided by goals conceded). 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. Since the goal average was used for this purpose for such a long time, it is presented in the tables below even for the seasons prior to 1894–95.

During the first five seasons of the league, there-election process concerned the clubs which finished in the bottom four of the league.[1]

Match results are drawn fromThe Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation website[2] andRothmans[1] for the First Division andRothmans for the Second Division. The result of the match on 25 November 1893 between Wolves and Stoke is given in many newspapers as a win for Wolves by 4–2, which is the result included in these tables and the book published by the Football League in 1937–38. Most subsequent lists of scores depend on that publication. The Times on Monday, the 27th gives the score as 5–2 and local Midland newspapers also show 5–2, listing the five goal scorers. This curious discrepancy has never been explained.

The Second Division was expanded from twelve to fifteen teams, with the election ofLiverpool,Middlesbrough Ironopolis,Newcastle United,Rotherham Town andWoolwich Arsenal and the resignation ofAccrington andBootle. Woolwich Arsenal became the first team from the south of England to participate in the Football League.

TheFootball League test matches were a set of play-offs, in which the bottom First Division teams faced the top Second Division teams. The First Division teams, if coming out as winners, would retain their places in the division. If a Second Division team won, it would be considered for First Division membership through an election process at the expense of a losing First Division team.
