The normal Football League had been suspended when World War II broke out. It was replaced with regional leagues - and in 1943/44 Everton played in the Northern Division up until Xmas and in a 2nd Northern Division Championship after that. In the 1st Northern Division 50 teams competed but only played 18 games each (9 at home and 9 away). Match, appearance and goal statistics are not counted in any official records. * scheduled kick-off time was 3.00pm but Man Utd's train was delayed en route. |
