Squad Stats (basic)

SFL First Division Table

Promoted Partick Thistle (champions) and Queen's Park (by exceptional invitation) were the new participants. Partick Thistle failed to win re-election but were not replaced, thus enabling next season's First Division to revert back to an even number of participating teams. 2 points for a win. Those finishing level on points were deemed equal in their table placing. Table figures supplied by John Litster, with the data integrity verified by The Thistle Archive.

Worst defence.

Western League

The third season of the Western League (Thistle's second). Participants unchanged from last season. 2 points for a win, 1 point for a draw. Those finishing level on points were deemed equal in their table placing. Table compiled by The Thistle Archive; 29 of the 30 games have been press-verified for accuracy. Table assumes St Mirren 1 Clyde 3 (per SFHA) which was scheduled to be played on 7 May (SFHA/SR). Further, the table published in the SR (13/5/1901) tallies both St Mirren and Clyde in accordance with a 3-1 win for the latter.
