Must be a long time since we played a Burton team (Swifts, Town, other ?).

 

18 March 1905  Burton United 0 Bolton Wanerers 1.

 

(19 November 1904 Bolton Wanderers 7 Burton United 1)

 

Bolton finished second of 18 teams in Division 2, behind Liverpool and ahead of ManUnited.

Burton fished 17th (above Doncaster Rovers, who were not re-elected) and then 18th for the next 2 seasons when they failed to gain re-election and both Fulham and Oldham Athletic joined the league).

 

Burton United was a merger of Burton Swifts and Burton Wanderers in 1901.
