Elections for promotion to Scottish League Division One

There was no automatic promotion or relegation between the two divisions. The bottom three clubs in Division One had to compete in an election with the top three sides from Division Two at the League AGM each year while the bottom three Division Two clubs had to apply for re-election.

 

Division Two teams could apply for election to Division One regardless of where they finished. This system was designed to ensure that only clubs with substantial support would compete in the top flight although there were several examples of popular teams being denied elevation for political reasons.

 

Dundee (14 votes) and Dumbarton (10 votes) were re-elected to Division One but Leith Athletic (3 votes) were not re-elected. Hibernian who finished 1st in Division Two were elected to Division One (11 votes). Motherwell (4 votes) were not elected to Division One.
