The Football League Third Division 1936/37 was the 17th season of the third highest English football league . The division, which is divided into the north and south, had with Stockport County and Luton Town their two champions and at the same time promoted to the Football League Second Division . The two in the table below ranking second division Bradford City and Doncaster Rovers took in the following third division season 1937/38 two places in the Third Division North. Nobody had to relegate from both third division seasons, because both the lower-placed northern clubs AFC Gateshead and FC Darlington as well as Exeter City and FC Aldershot in the south received enough votes in the re-election process of the league association to win again in the following 1937/38 season to participate in the Third Division. To ensure the same number of participants, Mansfield Town was regrouped from north to south.
