	Finishing bottom of League 2 Scunthorpe were relegated from the Football League along with Oldham Athletic, their places being taken by National League promoted clubs Stockport County and Grimsby Town (2021/22 National League table and play-off results).
	* Scunthorpe's points total for the 1973/74 season includes two awarded for a match not played - full details. ** The 2019/20 season ended early because of the coronavirus pandemic with the last League 2 match - apart from the play-offs - being played on Tuesday March 10th. A points per game (PPG) system then replaced the traditional points system to decide final League placings - Scunthorpe finished 20th using both systems. Click on table for full details.
