The1955–56 season was the 57th completed season ofThe Football League. Both major football honours went to Manchester this year, with United winning the First Division title and City bringing home the FA Cup.

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), 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 1922–23 season, the bottom two teams of both Third Division North and Third Division South were required to apply forre-election.[1]
