:''for the Australian rules football league, see Eastern Football League (Australia)'' This was a Scottish non-league football (soccer) competition that ran at various times between 1891 and 1946. Initially an Eastern Football Alliance was run in 1891–92 with eight teams - Adventurers, Armdale, Bathgate Rovers, Bo'ness, broxburn, Kirkcaldy (who withdrew early in the season), Broxburn Shamrock and Mossend Swifts. Leith Hibernians who were actually the old Hibernian that disbanded in 1891 were also members but withdrew before the new season. They were replaced by Adventurers. Many matches remained unplayed with Mossend Swifts leading the table from results traced. The Eastern Alliance was wound up at the season's end. The first league called Eastern Football League was formed in 1893–94 by Bathgate, Bo'ness Broxburn and Broxburn Shamrock, but again seems to have been abandoned midway through the season. It was re-formed, however, in 1903 by Bathgate, Bo'ness, Broxburn, Broxburn Shamrock, Carfin Emmett, Cartvale, Dykehead, West Calder Swifts and Wishaw Amateurs Champions 1903–04 Bo'ness 1904–05 East Fife 1905–06 ''not completed'' Membership Adventurers 1904–1906 Bathgate 1903–1905 Berwick Rangers 1905–1906 Bo'ness 1903–1905 Broxburn 1903–1905 Broxburn Athletic 1905–06 Broxburn Shamrock 1903–1905 Carfin Emmett 1903–1904 Cartvale 1903–1904 Cowdenbeath 'A' 1905–1906 Dykehead 1903–1905 East Fife 1904–1905 Forfar Athletic 1904–1905 Hearts of beith 1904–1905 Heart of Midlothian 'A' 1904–1906 West Calder Swifts 1903–1904 Wishaw Amateurs 1903–1904 The Eastern League was revived in 1912–13 and lasted for two seasons. Its original line-up was Broxburn Shamrock, Clackmannan, Gala Fairydean, Hearts of Beath, Leith Amateurs, Lochgelly, Musselburgh, Peebles Rovers, Selkirk, Vale of Leithen and West Calder Swifts; Montrose joined for 1913–14 season. In 1915 the Scottish League suspended its Second Division championship for the rest of World War I. However its member clubs joined with several non-league sides to form two regional leagues - Western Football League (in Scotland) and Eastern Football League. Although the Western League continued throughout the War years, the Eastern League disbanded in 1918 due to the lack of clubs still operating in the area.
