  Football League Third Division South - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Football League Third Division South was a level of English professional football which ran in parallel to Third Division North from 1921 to 1958.
The division was created in 1921 from the Third Division, formed one year earlier when the Football League absorbed the entire top division of the Southern League, effectively ending the ambitions of that league to rival the Football League.
At that time, most of the Football League's strongest clubs were from the industrial areas of the North and Midlands, with only 7 of its 44 members based in the South (Arsenal, Chelsea, Clapton Orient, Fulham, Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United, all from London, and Bristol City).

Southern League may mean: Southern League (baseball) for minor league baseball in the United States Southern League (football) for the semi-professional and amateur football league in England often known as the Dr. Martens League Southern Leagues, the various tournaments for association football, cricket, field hockey, on the South Island...
Professionalism was sanctioned by the Football Association as early as 1885, but when the Football League was founded in 1888 it was based entirely in the north and midlands, the establishment and county FA's in the south being firmly opposed to professionalism.
A year later this became the Third Division South, the delay in the incorporation of the Third Division North being due to the lack of an overall coherent structure in the North outside of the Football League.

 Football League
A second division was added by absorbing the rival Football Alliance in 1892, and by 1899 it had 36 member clubs.
The League was still largely northern- and midlands-based, so in 1920 virtually the entire First Division of the rival Southern League was absorbed as the FL's Third Division.
In 2004 the Football League decided to call its top division 'the Football League Championship' (which presumably they thought sounded better than the 'Premiership wannabes league'), thus 'elevating' the old Division 2 and 3 to 'new' Leagues 1 and 2.

The Panthers' current helmet design is the only one the team has used since it entered the league in 1995.
*1 The fl-white-fl stripe sequence was used throughout the 1967 season and during the first two games of the 1968 regular season; for the third game in 1968, the stripe sequence was switched to white-fl-white, and this sequence was used for the remainder of the 1968 season only.
