Scottish Football Federation
First version 1891-1893
|
See also Scottish Federation
1898-99 |
Formed in 1891
this league had a brief two seasons of existence. After the first
season, Hurlford and Kilmarnock Athletic joined the
Ayrshire League while Burnbank
and Glasgow Wanderers left to concentrated on
cup-ties and friendlies. Neilston
and East Stirlingshire, who transferred from the Scottish Alliance, were
elected to make the numbers up to ten. The Scottish League's decision to form a Second
Division in 1893 indirectly caused the Federation to close down. The Scottish
Alliance, as the senior non-League body, was used as the backbone for the new
section with Motherwell also gaining admission.
Four Federation clubs then transferred to the Alliance. With Falkirk and East
Stirlingshire entering the Midland League, and Hurlford
and Kilmarnock Athletic joining the Ayrshire League
the Federation closed down. The name was
revived for a season for a reserve competition in 1898-99. |
