Does anyone know when the current structure of 20, 24, 24 and 24 in the top four divisions replaced the previous 22, 22, 24 and 24?
Also if anyone knows of any other changes to the makeup of the top four divisions it will save me researching it.

Looks like 1958/59 was the first season where the bottom two divisions weren't North and South as they had been previously. I think there's an argument to bring that structure back although might be even more of a struggle for us given that there are more "Southern" teams in League One than League Two right now. | |

I think the Prem started in 92-93 with 22 clubs, but in 95-96 it reduced to 20.
Before the Prem there were normally 22 clubs in Division One, but that varied over the years.
North/south would make sense with todays traffic (not to mention environmental reasons), especially with the 12:30 kick-offs, although previous managers had to take teams to Plymouth, Swansea etc. which aren't exactly local. Add in Cardiff, Exeter, and the Bristols, and it probably doesn't make much difference to Colchester. |  | | |

Spare a thought for Gloucester City. Despite being traditionally a 'southern' side all their existence, since 2004/05 they've bounced between northern and southern leagues, depending on who else was at the same level. They've actually spent the majority of those 20 years in a northern division, where they are currently. |  |
