	English Football League
		"League" football in England is organised into four divisions, the foremost being the FA Premier League, the remaining three remaining under the jurisdiction of what is legally known as simply The Football League.
		The League-wide League Cup, and the FA Cup that is dominated by League teams, use a single-elimination format to determine a champion.
		Professional football teams from Wales (Cardiff City, Wrexham, and Swansea City) play in the English Football League, thus largely disqualifying themselves from the UEFA club competitions, although lower teams play in the League of Wales.

	Second Division - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In sport, the Second Division is usually the second highest division of a league, and will often have promotion and relegation with divisions above and below.
		In some cases, the Second Division may no longer be the second highest division overall in that country, as new leagues can be created above, demoting the Second Division down a level.
		The terms "First division" and "Second division" also have a history of usage in baseball, although the concept of promotion and relegation does not and never has existed in that sport, or in any of the popular team sports in the United States for that matter.

		Ynysybwl Football Club was formed in 1895 and competed with great success in the local Pontypridd league until 1967 when, after finishing runners up, they applied to step up to the Welsh League.
		Another League of Wales side Llansantffraid were the visitors in the quarter-finals but after Romano Bacchetta had given Pontypridd a half time lead, two goals from Tommy Morgan, including a last minute winner from a free kick, took the visitors through.
		However, behind the scenes problems led to the manager, most of the players and some sponsors leaving the club after the Welsh Cup exit, and to cap it all after originally ending the season in eleventh place Pontypridd were deducted seven points by the league for fielding an ineligible player.
