inauguration (1888) these are the top 40 Clubs.
The League champions are awarded 92 League pts, runners-up 91, etc
and the bottom team in League 2/Div 4 get 1 point.
(Between 1924 and 1950, there were only 88 Clubs in the League,
and so the League champions get 88 League pts.)
Between 1888 (12 Clubs) and 1923 (86 Clubs) there were varying
nos of League members. The Champs get 12 pts (for example) for
winning the 1888-89 season,
When there were 2 Division 3s (North & South), the winners would have
each received 49 pts, whilst the runners-up both got 47.

Very interesting post, shows we need to improve. There are 4 premier teams for next year, not on the list. Brighton, Brentford, Bournemouth and Luton. How far are they away from the top 40?
RE: All-time League - talkSAFT - 30-05-2023
Brighton 48th; Brentford 61st; Bournemouth 52nd; Luton 42nd
