Season | 1911–12 |

Champions | Blackburn Rovers |

New Team in League | Grimsby Town |

The 1911–12 season was the 24th season of The Football League.
Blackburn Rovers won the First Division title for the first time.
Bury and Preston North End were relegated to the Second Division, and their places in the First Division were taken by Derby County and Chelsea.
Final league tables
The tables below are reproduced here in the exact form that they can be found at The Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation website[1] and in Rothmans Book of Football League Records 1888–89 to 1978–79,[2] with home and away statistics separated.
Beginning with the season 1894–95, clubs finishing level on points were separated according to goal average (goals scored divided by goals conceded), or more properly put, goal ratio. In case one or more teams had the same goal difference, this system favoured those teams who had scored fewer goals. The goal average system was eventually scrapped beginning with the 1976–77 season.
From the 1894–95 season and until the 1920–21 season the re-election process was required of the clubs which finished in the bottom three of the league.[2]
