Southern Counties League overview

Wigtownshire League

 

 

The creation of the Scottish League's Third Division in 1923, and the loss of four of the region's strongest clubs to it, the Southern Counties League disbanded. However the Wigtownshire League was played during two seasons from 1923 to 1925. Because of the large number of cup competitions being played at this time, it was impossible for the members clubs to fulfill their fixtures, and the league was wound up after two unfinished seasons. Despite this three clubs still managed to play some matches in another Southern Counties League that was played during 1924-25. Although this also had many unplayed fixtures, Dalbeattie Star were declared champions, and the league was subsequently disbanded.
