Leicester are not the only ever FL club from Leicestershire - there was a side from Loughborough until 1900

Bedfordshire, home of Luton Town

Balls, that was mine! Should have just posted before I got to the end then claimed "we got it at the same time" (an hour apart).

Derbyshire? Can't be bothered to read back and see if anyone got that.

Derbyshire has two, Derby and Chesterfield.

Sod this, I give up. I'm going back to arguing that Steven Gerrard was rubbish. Having more success at that.

Hereford United used to be though so that'd be another county with only one league representative ever.

Current Warwickshire only had Nuneaton. Historic Warwickshire had Coventry and maybe some of the Birmingham clubs. It's complex. Now it has none.

So, of the 21 counties with only one team currently in the league I think we have
the following 15.

Kent
Leicestershire
Gloucestershire
East Yorkshire
Norfolk
Suffolk
Cumbria
Oxfordshire
Berkshire
Somerset
East Sussex
Cambridgeshire
Dorset
Berkshire
Clwyd
