Landskampioen

Op 22 maart 1888 werd de Engelse Football League opgericht. De toenmalige directeur van Aston Villa benaderde destijds de 12 belangrijkste teams om een gestructureerde competitie op te zetten. De competitie ging van start op 8 september 1888. De competitie werd uitgebreid en er werden meer divisies toegevoegd. In 1959 telde de Football League 92 clubs.

In 1992 besloten de 20 grootste clubs van Engeland om de Football League te verlaten. De Premier League werd opgericht. Door de tv-gelden van Sky Sports werd de Premier League financieel veel aantrekkelijker. Er is nog wel promotie en degradatie mogelijk tussen de hoogste divisie van de Football League.
