UFLC

This is the home site of the Unofficial Football League Championship of England (UFLC).

The UFLC is based on the same idea as the Unofficial Football World Championship (www.ufwc.co.uk).
Starting with the first ever Football League champion - Preston North End in 1888/89, who went through the entire season undefeated - the UFLC is contested in a boxing-style knockout competition. The team that beats the current unofficial champion then becomes the champion.

It was inspired by an article in The Guardian's Knowledge column, asking about a hypothetical Unofficial Premier League Champion.

To learn more about the system, take a look at the About page.
