The league was split into two sections for a third season in a row, one for English clubs and one for Welsh clubs.〔(England – Southern League Final Tables ) RSSSF〕 Bristol City reserves won the English section, whilst Ebbw Vale won the Welsh section. Ebbw Vale were declared Southern League champions after beating Bristol City reserves 2–1 in a championship play-off. Boscombe, Pontypridd and Torquay United were the only Southern League clubs to apply for election to the Football League, with Boscombe being successful.〔(A history of admission to the Football League )〕 The club was renamed Bournemouth & Boscombe Athletic the following year. Following to the mid-season resignation of four clubs in the Welsh section due to financial problems and Porth Athletic leaving the league at the end of the season, the following season saw the English section renamed the Eastern Division and the Welsh section renamed the Western Division, with eight clubs transferring from the English section to the Western section. ==English section== A total of 20 teams contest the division, including 17 sides from previous season and three new teams.
