First Division

[edit]

Liverpool won the First Division title and theUEFA Cup in their second season under the management ofBob Paisley. They finished just one point ahead of Queens Park Rangers, who had emerged as serious title contenders under the managementDave Sexton, who had won silverware with Chelsea a few seasons earlier. Manchester United enjoyed a strong First Division comeback by finishing third. Derby County's defence of the league title finished with a fourth-place finish. Leeds United continued to recover from the departure ofDon Revie by moving up to fifth place a year after finishing ninth.

FA Cup holders West Ham United could only manage an 18th-place finish in the league, and were runners-up in theEuropean Cup Winners' Cup.

Sheffield United's terrible season saw them relegated in bottom place after five years back in the First Division. They went down with Burnley and Wolves.

Bertie Mee, 57, retired after ten years as manager of Arsenal. The highlights of his career had been theInter-Cities Fairs Cup triumph of 1970 andthe Double win of 1971, but Arsenal had fallen behind the best in recent seasons and Mee handed over the reins toTerry Neill.

Third Division

[edit]

Hereford United won the Third Division title and with it promotion to the Second Division in only their fourth season in theFootball League. Cardiff City and Millwall went up with them to seal an instant return to the Second Division. Brighton, managed by Brian Clough's former assistantPeter Taylor, missed out on promotion by one place. Crystal Palace, semi-finalists in the FA Cup, missed out on promotion after a late season collapse in form, which was followed by the replacement ofMalcolm Allison as manager withTerry Venables.

Halifax, Southend, Colchester and Aldershot were relegated. Narrowly avoiding the drop were Sheffield Wednesday, who during the interwar years had won the League championship and the FA Cup, and which resulted in their lowest League finish ever.

Fourth Division

[edit]

32-year-oldGraham Taylor achieved the first success of his managerial career by winning the Fourth Division title for Lincoln City. Their points total of 74 was and remains the record for the Football League during the period when 2 points were awarded for a win.^[13] He was linked with several job vacancies in the First and Second Divisions but surprised everyone by taking over atElton John's Watford, who were still standing in the Fourth Division. Joining Lincoln in the Third Division were Northampton Town, Reading and Tranmere Rovers.

The Football League voted in favour of the bottom four clubs remaining in the Fourth Division, and so there were no departures or arrivals in the league for 1976–77.
