2013–14 Southern Football League

The 2013–14 season was the 111th in the history of the Southern League, which is an English football competition featuring semi-professional and amateur clubs from the South West, South Central and Midlands of England and South Wales. From the 2013–14 season onwards, the Southern League is known as The Calor Gas League Southern, following a sponsorship deal with Calor Gas.

Following the liquidation of Premier Division club Hinckley United[1] and the resignation of Thatcham Town from Division One South & West at the end of the season,[2] plus the resignation of Vauxhall Motors from the Conference North,[3] Fleet Town were reprieved from relegation in Division One South & West.[4]
