1969–70 Football League First Division
The Football League First Division 1969/70 was the 71st season of the Football League First Division as the highest English football league. Everton won with nine points behind defending champions Leeds United now his seventh British Championship. Both newly promoted Derby County and Crystal Palace were able to get the class; instead had the AFC Sunderland and Sheffield Wednesday the transition to the Second Division compete. These two teams should be in the following season replaced by the two newly promoted second division Huddersfield Town FC and Blackpool.
A total of 490 players were used, with the Everton FC and Derby County with 17, the least and Ipswich Town and Burnley FC with 27 aufboten most players in league games. 92 newcomers were offset by 102 footballers who most recently came into play in the season 1969/70.

As regards the specific arrangements prior to the introduction of the Premier League, there is lack of clarity, all the players with an asterisk (*) have been provided which have received no champion medal presumably because of their small contribution. In brackets the number of bets as well as the goals achieved are called.
