From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of East Stirlingshire Football Club seasons from 188283 to the present day.

Footnotes

^1. East Stirlingshire finished level on points with Raith Rovers and would have finished 10th but lost 32 in a play-off to determine the ranking order, so subsequently finished below the club. [3]

^2. After World War II ended, East Stirlingshire were not re-elected to join Division Two. The club therefore joined the newly created, and short-lived, Division "C" along with reserve teams.

^3. After being promoted back to Division Two in 194849 and finishing bottom, the club was not re-elected to compete next season. The club played in minor leagues until 195556 when the club re-joined Division Two.

^4. East Stirlingshire competed under the name "East Stirlingshire Clydebank", or "E.S. Clydebank" for short, after merging with Clydebank Juniors. The merge lasted for only one season.

^5. Due to league restructuring the teams ranked 7th to 20th of the 197475 Second Division were moved to a new "Division Two" to make room for a new Premier Division above Division One for the 197576 season. The new Second Division became the third tier of Scottish football behind the new First Division and Premier Division.

^6. Due to league restructuring the teams ranked 7th to 14th of the 199394 Second Division were moved from the Second Division to create a new Third Division for the 199495 season. Points restructuring also saw three points awarded for a win and one for a draw in the seasons following. This was changed from two for a win and one for a draw.

^7. The 199899 Scottish Challenge Cup tournament was suspended due to lack of sponsorship.
