The 5th level in England was traditionally the highest that amateur
clubs could aspire to. The bottom 3rd (and later 4th) division clubs
were, in fact, forced to undergo a reelection voting process against
top amateur clubs, but since the creation of the 4th division in 1958
only Peterborough (1960), Cambridge United (1970), Hereford (1972),
Wimbledon (1977) and Wigan (1978) were able to unseat one of the
professional clubs. Regular promotion and relegation (one team only)
was established in 1986-87, but this was far from certainty, as
Macclesfield, Kidderminster and Stevenage were to experience between
1994 and 1996. Their appeal to civil courts was also unavailing.
The fifth league was called the Alliance League (1980-86), GM Vauxhall
Conference (1987-99) and Nationwide Conference (since 1999)
Note that the tables for 1977-79 below are actually divisions which are
predecessors of today's sixth level (Southern and Northern groups, for
Isthmus see 6th level history).
