The1972–73 season was the 74th completed season ofThe Football League.
Liverpool's championship win meant they claimed their first trophy since 1966 inBill Shankly's penultimate season as manager despite competition fromArsenal,Leeds United,Ipswich Town andWolverhampton Wanderers.
Manchester United sacked managerFrank O'Farrell after 18 months in charge. He had been unable to mount a title challenge.Tommy Docherty, the 44-year-old Scottish national coach and former Aston Villa manager, was appointed as his successor.Bobby Charlton andDenis Law both played their last games for the club while George Best's appearances were becoming increasingly rare.
Burnley andQueens Park Rangers won promotion to the First Division.Huddersfield Town's decline continued as they slid into the Third Division, where they were joined byBrighton & Hove Albion.
Bolton Wanderers andNotts County occupied the two promotion places in the Third Division.Rotherham United,Brentford,Swansea City andScunthorpe United were relegated to the Fourth Division.
Hereford United were promoted from the Fourth Division in their first season as a Football League club. They had been elected to the Football League a year earlier after winning theSouthern League and achieving a shock win over Newcastle United in theFA Cup. They were joined in the promotion zone by championsSouthport,Cambridge United andAldershot.Newport County missed promotion only on goal average. There were no arrivals or departures in the league for 1973.
The tables below are reproduced here in the exact form that they can be found atThe Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation website[1] and inRothmans 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.
Since theFourth Division was established in the1958–59 season, the bottom four teams of that division have been required to apply forre-election.[2]
