  East of Scotland Football League - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The East of Scotland Football League (EoSFL) is a league of football (soccer) teams from South-East Scotland formed in 1927.
It is one of the three 'senior' non-leagues (that is a league that is not the Scottish Football League (SFL), Scottish Premier League (SPL) or one of the Scottish Junior Football Association's leagues) in Scotland (the other two being the Highland Football League (HFL) and the South of Scotland Football League (SoSFL)).
This has left the League with an uneven number of clubs and they were expected to fill the vacancy in the Summer of 2005, with Gala Rovers F.C. widely touted as likely candidates.
