THE EASTERN COUNTIES LEAGUE 1976-1977
For one season only the Eastern Counties
League used a unique and previously mysterious
points scoring system. In the last week of September 2011,
however, Ron Price passed this information
to the site:
For info – the point scoring in this
season was:
|
Home win |
4 points awarded |
|
Away win |
5 points awarded |
|
Draw |
2 points to each team |
At that point Ron had never “... seen
a table with HW and AW shown separately ...”
Ron then got in touch with Mick Blakeman,
who supplied the table details below ...
and in doing so put an end to one of non-league
football’s ‘mysteries’
(at least as far as this website was concerned).
