season was the first season in which football club Gillingham F.C.
competed in the Football League. Gillingham had previously played in
Division One of the Southern Football League, but in 1920 the Football
League decided to add a third division to its existing set-up and did so
by absorbing the entire Southern League Division One to form the new
Football League Third Division. Gillingham had finished bottom of the
Southern League Division One the previous season and fared no better in
the Football League, finishing bottom of the table after registering
only eight wins in 42 matches.
