Well I'm finally getting somewhere following everything through the Southern League during he 1900-01 and 1901-02 seasons.
However, I have a question. Should we be including the games that were played during the First and Second World Wars which were mostly played on a regional basis?

No, the war leagues were set up to keep football going while the usual competitions like the Football League were suspended. In addition, teams relied heavily on guest players. The war league games should be regarded as friendlies.
