The1949–50 season was the 70th season of competitivefootball in England.

Overview

[edit]

Portsmouth retained the First Division title by one of the narrowest margins in history ahead ofWolverhampton Wanderers F.C.[citation needed]

An event that was much talked about in the city ofSheffield for many years was the way the promotion race from theSecond Division was won. Going into the last game of the season,Sheffield Wednesday needed to beatTottenham Hotspur to clinch promotion at the expense of their local rivalsSheffield United. The resulting 0–0 draw meant Wednesday won promotion by agoal average difference of just 0.008 – a 1–1 draw would have left the two great rivals level on points and goal average, and a unique play-off match would have had to be played.[citation needed]

Joe Mercer captained the winning Arsenal team in the FA Cup and was namedFWA Footballer of the Year.[1]

Manchester United returned to a rebuiltOld Trafford eight years after it had been damaged by theLuftwaffe, but failed to win any silverware this season.[citation needed][2]
