The normal Football League had been suspended when World War II broke out.
It was replaced with regional leagues - and in 1940/41 Everton played in the Northern Division.
Clubs did not all play the same number of games and positions were decided on goal average.
Match, appearance and goal statistics are not counted in any official records.
