A Second Division was added to the League in 1892 making 28 clubs, and by 1904 the League had expanded to 40 clubs, 22 of them in the north and midlands.
Between 1920 and 1922 two, new regionalised divisions were added, strengthening the southern representation and raising the total number of League clubs by 1924/25 to 88.
The reduction in the size of the top 'English' division - from 20 to 18 clubs - would also be attractive to some larger clubs, especially given their burgeoning European commitments.
