A total of 417 players were used, with Wolverhampton Wanderers with 18 the fewest and Manchester City with 28 the most players in league games. 130 newcomers faced 111 footballers who last came into play in the 1903/04 season. 19 players were able to play all 34 league games in their club.
The following table lists all players who were used in a league game for The Wednesday during the 1903/04 season. It must be noted that in English football a minimum number of games is usually required in order to receive the official championship medal. Since there was uncertainty about the specific regulation before the introduction of the Premier League, all players who presumably did not receive a championship medal due to their low contribution were marked with an asterisk (*). The number of missions and the goals scored are given in brackets.
