List of Margate F.C. seasons

The Margate team display the Margate and District Charity Cup in 1907.

Margate Football Club is an English association football club based in the seaside resort of Margate, Kent. The club was founded in 1896 and played only friendlies and cup matches until 1909, when the team joined the Thanet and District League. ^[1] Two years later Margate joined the Kent League, initially also playing in the Thanet League due to the county league's small fixture list, before stepping up to the Southern League in 1933. ^[1] After four seasons at this level, however, the club was forced to resign on financial grounds and return to the Kent League. ^[1] Margate returned to the Southern League in 1959 and remained there until 2001 when they gained promotion to the Football Conference, the highest level of English non-League football. ^{[2] [3]} During their stay at this level they were forced to groundshare with other clubs due to drawn-out and problematic redevelopment work at their Hartsdown Park ground. ^[1] This led to the club being expelled from the Conference National in 2004 for failing to meet the division's stadium requirements. ^[1] After one season in the Conference South the club was relegated to the Isthmian League. ^[2]

The team, nicknamed "The Gate", have to date reached the third round proper of England's premier cup competition, the FA Cup, on two occasions. The club's best performance in the FA Trophy, the main cup competition specifically for non-League clubs, was a run to the quarter-final stage in 2001–02. ^{[2] [3]}

Notes

A. ^ Margate entered the FA Amateur Cup until the First World War. The club entered the FA Trophy from its creation in 1969. ^[2]
B. ^ Margate's first ever match was a friendly against Wye F.C. on 28 October 1896. ^[121]
C. ^ Margate's first round match against Folkestone Post Office was the club's first ever competitive match. It was ordered to be replayed as Margate had fielded an ineligible player. ^[4]
D. ^ Pearce also scored twice in a match against Broadstairs Town which was abandoned due to fog and ordered to be replayed. ^[6]
E. ^ Fordham also scored one goal in a match against Ramsgate Town which was declared void and ordered to be replayed for unknown reasons. ^[18]

L. ^ Margate folded for a second time at the end of the 1927–28 due to heavy debts. The club reformed a year later and returned to the league. ^[1]
M. ^ Following their Kent League title win, Margate successfully applied for membership of the Southern League and were placed in the Eastern Section. They continued to field a team in the Kent League, and that league placed a requirement on the club to field its strongest team, therefore both leagues are considered to have been first team competitions. ^[1]
N. ^ Margate's FA Cup fourth round qualifying match against Folkestone was abandoned due to fog, but as it was subsequently discovered that Margate had fielded an ineligible player, the tie was awarded to Folkestone rather than a replay ordered. ^[35]

P. ^ Margate resigned from the Southern League in 1937 for financial reasons and returned to the Kent League. ^[1]

R. ^ The Kent League was abandoned after Margate's first match due to the outbreak of the Second World War and replaced with the Kent Regional League, which is not generally included in official statistics. This league was itself abandoned before the end of the season, although Margate had already played all their matches, with a record of P20 W7 D5 L8 F47 A44 Pts19. ^[39]
S. ^ Margate drew 2–2 with Erith & Belvedere but the competition was abandoned before the replay took place. ^[39]

The league was instead reorganised into two parallel divisions, the Southern Division and the Midland Division, with Margate playing in the Southern Division. ^[2]
Y. ^ Having finished bottom of the table, Margate did not qualify for a place in the Southern League Premier Division, which was reformed for the 1982–83 season. They remained in the Southern Division, which became the second tier of the league. ^[1]
Z. ^ Margate and Ramsgate were declared joint winners of the Isle of Thanet Gazette Cup after the match finished 1–1. ^[82]
