The 1891–92 Football Alliance was the third and final season of the Football Alliance, an association football league which was set up in England as a rival to the Football League, which had begun in the 1888–89 season. Three new clubs joined the Football Alliance, following the expansion of the Football League to 14 teams, and the defection of Sunderland Albion to the Northern League. These new teams were Ardwick (later Manchester City), Burton Swifts and Lincoln City. At the end of the season the Football Alliance was disbanded and merged with the Football League, which was expanded to two divisions. Champions Nottingham Forest together with Newton Heath and The Wednesday were elected to the enlarged sixteen-team First Division. The remaining teams were joined by Northwich Victoria, Burslem Port Vale and Sheffield United to form a twelve-team Second Division. However, Birmingham St George's were forced to disband at the end of the season due to financial problems.〔〔 ==Final League Table== Goal difference did not have any relevance for the league table, but since it is an informative piece of information for a modern reader, it is added in this presentation after the goals scored for and against, just as in the Football League presentations. * Pld = Matches played; W = Matches won; D = Matches drawn; L = Matches lost; F = Goals for; A = Goals against; Pts = Points :A. Two points deducted from Birmingham St George's for fielding ineligible players. Disbanded at the end of the season due to financial problems. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1891–92 Football Alliance」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
