The Football League Third Division 1929/30 was the tenth season of the third highest English football league . The division, divided into the north and south seasons, had their two champions Port Vale and Plymouth Argyle and at the same time promoted to the Football League Second Division . For the two promoted teams in the following third division season 1930/31, the two second division clubs Hull City and Notts County ranked in the table below . From both third division seasons only Merthyr Town had to relegate athletically. For Merthyr Town, the AFC Thames was added to the third division. The remaining lower-placed northern clubs Halifax Town and AFC Barrow as well as Gillingham FC in the south received enough votes in the re-election process of the League Association to be allowed to participate again in the Third Division in the following 1930/31 season. The FC South Shields then moved to the city of Gateshead and called itself from then on AFC Gateshead .
