The1898–99 season was the 11th season ofThe Football League. Two teams were able to win theFirst Division title going into the final day of the season:Aston Villa andLiverpool; second-placed Liverpool travelled toVilla Park for the final match, needing a win to overtake Villa and win the title, but Villa won 5–0 to win their fourth First Division title.

Defending championsSheffield United had the first poor title defence in English top flight history, finishing 16th out of 18, barely avoiding the two relegation places.

This wasDarwen's last season in the Football League. Their record of 141 goals conceded and goal difference of −119 are both all-time Football League records.[1]

Final league tables

[edit]

Beginning in the 1894–95 season, 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.

During the first six seasons of the league, (up to the 1893–94 season), re-election process concerned the clubs which finished in the bottom four of the league. 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.
