Following the closure of several clubs from the previous season, only 6 sides started the season and only 4 finished it. There were many team changes from the previous season. Liverpool, Manchester White City, Warrington, Edinburgh, Newcastle, Rochdale, Barnsley and Wombwell were all no longer participants, while Leeds rejoined after a year's absence.[1]
