Every English Football League Club Ever

Each team is only named once. If a team changed its name then only the last name is listed, (as best I can work out). Good Luck, opinions on the names selected welcome. Updated for 21/22

I understand that Gateshead were the same club as South Shields, which would mean that the latter should not be listed.

Darwen need adding, and South Shields became Gateshead before being voted out, so you shouldn't have both.

Great quiz. Did create a similar one myself! I've added the seasons they were active in the Football League in my one.

My discrepancies were Aberdare Town played as Aberdare Athletic (Aberdare Town is a new club), there are 2 Accrington Stanley's (current one was formed in 2006, old one folded in 1962), Darwen not Darwin, Newport County AFC and Newport County (again a new club), South Shields as its own club (and not with Gateshead), separated AFC Wimbledon and Wimbledon (again a new club).

Feel free to ignore!

Great quiz. Only missed 2, Aberdare and Merthyr. Should Wimbledon be added, as neither AFC or MK Dons own their history?

I got 106. There were another 12 I should have had but couldn't think of. And there are a whole bunch I'd never heard of and wouldn't have guessed.
