All of these teams had been relegated from the Alliance Premier League after the 1981β82 season.
This year Runcorn, the winners of the Alliance Premier League, could not apply for election because they did not meet Football League requirements. 2nd placed Enfield could not apply either for the same reasons, so 3rd placed Telford United won the right to apply for election to the Football League to replace one of the four bottom sides in the 1981β82 Football League Fourth Division. The vote went as follows:
Club | Final Position | Votes |
---|---|---|
Northampton Town | 22nd (Fourth Division) | 53 |
Crewe Alexandra | 24th (Fourth Division) | 50 |
Rochdale | 21st (Fourth Division) | 48 |
Scunthorpe United | 23rd (Fourth Division) | 48 |
Telford United | 3rd (Alliance Premier League) | 13 |
As a result of this, Telford United did not gain membership of the Football League.
