The 1905β06 season was theββ18th season of The Football League.
Final league tablesβ»
Beginning in the 1894β95 season, clubs finishing level on points were separated accordingββto goal average (goals scored divided by, goals conceded). 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 1976β77 season.
During the first six seasons of the league, (upββto the 1893β94 season), re-election process concerned the clubs which finished in the bottom four of the league. From the 1894β95 season and until the 1920β21 season the re-election process was required of the clubs which finished in the bottom three of the league.
