The results didn't change when Harvard began playing other US colleges and the Crimson ran roughshod over their competition.

This would be the last split season before the NHL changed its regular season and playoff formats.


1920–21 NHL season, League Business
Eddie Livingstone was again talking of creating a rival league and mentioned Hamiltonas a city in his league. To head this off, league president Frank Calder got the owners of the league to admit a Hamilton franchise. As Abso-Pure had built an arena, all owners agreed that it would be wise tohave a franchise in Hamilton. Because Quebec had done so badly the previous season, Calder said that Quebec's players would be given to Hamilton. Although Mike Quinn was non-committal at first, he finally sold the team to Hamilton and it became the Hamilton Tigers.


1920–21 NHL season, Regular season

1920–21 NHL season, Regular season
Also on January 26, 1921, the Ottawa Senators left the ice with 5:13 to play in a game against the Montreal Canadiens. According to the Senators, referee Cooper Smeaton was one-sided in favour of the Canadiens. Smeaton let the Canadiens continue to play, allowing goals by Newsy Lalonde and Amos Arbour before calling the game. Smeaton denied the claim, stating "a referee is always paid and receives the same salary, regardless what team wins." Smeaton would resign over the incident, but was convinced to return to refereeing later in the season. The Senators were fined $500 by NHL president Frank Calder for the incident.


1920–21 NHL season, Regular season
The Ottawa Senators won the first half of the split season while the Toronto St. Patricks won the second half.

The 1920–21 Penn Quakers men's ice hockey season was the 9th season of play for the program.


1920–21 Penn Quakers men's ice hockey season, Season
With most programs having now returned from absences caused by World War I, Penn was hoping to form a new intercollegiate league with old rivals from the IHA. Harvard, the leading program at the time, elected to only keep its arrangement with Princeton and Yale. As a result, plans for the league were changed to allow Harvard to participate; instead of a conference, the league would operate in a more informal manner that would facilitate scheduling between teams as well as to certify rules that all members could accept. With those modifications, Penn was able to join the Intercollegiate Ice Hockey Association of America with five of its contemporaries, but membership was not the stabilizing force that Penn hoped it would be.


1920–21 Penn Quakers men's ice hockey season, Season
Penn had originally hoped to schedule a practice game before the winter break but no arrangement could be finalized. After Christmas the team was supposed to open the season on the 7th and 8th of January, but both games were cancelled due to scheduling conflicts. In the end they were able to rope the St. Nicholas Hockey Club into a game on the 8th before playing their first intercollegiate game the following week.


1920–21 Penn Quakers men's ice hockey season, Season
In February Harvard finally accepted the inevitable and agreed to play 6-on-6 hockey beginning the following year. As a result the expectation was that the Intercollegiate league that had just been formed would become a fully-formed conference in the near future. The news came amidst a good streak for the Quakers with the team going 3–0–1 and looking like they would have a chance to earn a split with Princeton, but the Tigers, who were using the Philadelphia Ice Palace as their home rink, shut down the Penn offense and won the game 2–0.


1920–21 Philadelphia Sphas season
The 1920-21 season was the Sphas' 4th season in the American League of Philadelphia. Game-by-game records are not available for this season.


1920–21 Port Vale F.C. season
The 1920–21 season was Port Vale's second consecutive season of football (15th overall) in the English Football League. The season peaked early with a double victory in the league over rivals Stoke, however any sense of euphoria evaporated in February with the sale of star striker Bobby Blood. The club failed to find another reliable goalscorer until the arrival of Wilf Kirkham in 1923. The Vale finished at the bottom end of the table, though they did finish higher in the league than Stoke for the first time in their history.


1920–21 Port Vale F.C. season, Overview, Second Division
During the pre-season, manager-secretary Joe Schofield stated that: "the future policy of Port Vale is to go ahead". He duly signed experienced full-back Bob Pursell, brother of Peter, from Liverpool. The capacity of The Old Recreation Ground was increased to 30,000; mainly due to the fund raising activities of the Supporters' Club. Of the 1919–20 squad, only William Aitken was let go, for a fee of £2,500 to Newcastle United. That money helped to pay for £400 Tom Page from St Mirren, and right-half Freddy Price from Wolverhampton Wanderers.


1920–21 Port Vale F.C. season, Overview, Second Division
The season started positively enough; a 2–0 win over new club Leeds United helped to establish a start of six points from the opening six games. On 25 September, the "Valiants" delighted their fans by recording their first league victory over rivals Stoke in 'a stirring duel' which ended 2–1. The following week they achieved the double over Stoke by recording a 1–0 victory at the Victoria Ground. This encouraged fans to travel in their numbers to see the team beat Nottingham Forest 4–1 at the City Ground.


1920–21 Port Vale F.C. season, Overview, Second Division
Injuries to Price and Brough then saw the team slump, and this continued when new signing, Manchester City goalkeeper Walter Smith was arrested for assault on the day of his debut. The arrest is likely to account for a majority of the six goals he conceded that day at South Shields. The side recovered to record heavy victories over Hull City and Stockport County, with Bobby Blood scoring six of the Vale's ten goals in the two games.


1920–21 Port Vale F.C. season, Overview, Second Division
Vale lost both their games to Bristol City, though Blood demonstrated his fearsome shooting power by blasting a penalty kick at City's keeper – the keeper saved the penalty to keep a clean sheet but broke his wrist in the process of saving the shot. Blood was sold to West Bromwich Albion for £4,000 in February – then a club record for both clubs. The effect on the pitch was telling, as Vale went on to record just two wins in their remaining sixteen games, with a meagre six goals scored. One of the victories was a 'flash in the pan' win over FA Cup semi-finalists Cardiff City, Cardiff fielded a weakened team and watched in bewilderment as Page scored the winning goal from the penalty spot, stubbing his foot in the process.


1920–21 Port Vale F.C. season, Overview, Second Division
At the end of the season, Vale finished six points ahead of relegated Stockport County, but 22 points behind the promotion places. Only a handful of teams had lost fewer away matches than Vale, however Vale boasted fewer home wins than any other club in the league, and even with Blood in the side the club struggled to find goals.


1920–21 Port Vale F.C. season, Overview, Second Division
A core of six players formed the spine of the team: Peter and Bob Pursell, with Tom Lyons in defence; Joe Brough at half-back; with Billy Briscoe and Tom Page in forward positions. Page contributed to the goals tally, but Blood was the sole hope in front of goal, racking up 20 goals in 25 league games before his transfer. In the addition to the Pursell brothers, Harry and John Johnstone also made sporadic appearances; in one match both the Pursell brothers and the Johnstone brothers took to the field.


1920–21 Port Vale F.C. season, Overview, Finances
The issue of finance reared its head in September with an appeal for greater support from chairman Frank Huntbach. The chairman emphasised the club's potential and pleaded for the remaining £4,500 worth of shares to be snapped up. The Pursell brothers were so affected by the speech that they each bought £5 worth of shares. The club later received a £70 boost when supporters bought copies of "The Port Vale War-Cry", though more significant was the elevated noise level as supporters sang the cry throughout matches.


1920–21 Port Vale F.C. season, Overview, Finances
Vale's weather-conscious supporters would turn up in their number during sunshine, but were somewhat unreliable during the winter. The club were desperate to increase ground capacity but were already facing worrying financial times, despite the club debt falling to £800. Though the sale of Blood raised considerable funds, fans were outraged, especially as Schofield and the directors refused to comment on the issue – Blood was apparently told by the club that either "[he] went or the club". At the end of the season a £1,187 profit was recorded.


1920–21 Port Vale F.C. season, Overview, Cup competitions
The club failed to qualify for the FA Cup, losing their qualification match with league rivals Clapton Orient. The North Staffordshire Infirmary Cup went to Stoke, who claimed victory with a 5–3 win at The Old Recreation Ground.

The Saints began the season strongly, winning seven of their first ten games to begin a lengthy run at the top of the league table until the end of the year.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season
The club began to lose against several teams lower in the table in December, dropping a position as Palace continued to win the majority of their games. Southampton finished the season in second place with 19 wins, 16 draws and seven losses, four points behind the champions and one point ahead of third-placed Queens Park Rangers.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season
In the 1920–21 FA Cup, Southampton beat fellow Third Division sides Northampton Town (after a replay) and Grimsby Town to reach the third round, before being knocked out by eventual semi-finalists Cardiff City. The club ended the season at Fratton Park with the annual Hampshire Benevolent Cup charity match against local rivals Portsmouth, which the hosts won 1–0 through a goal from Harold Buddery. The game was notable for featuring right-back Tom Parker in goal, who was forced to fill in for the injured Tommy Allen. Southampton also played three friendly matches during the campaign, beating newly formed Welsh club Bridgend Town 3–1 in October, losing 1–0 to former Southern League rivals Aberdare Athletic in March, and drawing 1–1 with Third Division opponents Reading in the Berkshire Charity Cup in May.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season
Southampton used 21 different players during the 1920–21 season and had ten different goalscorers. Their top scorer was centre-forward Bill Rawlings, who scored 18 goals in the Third Division and four in the FA Cup. Inside-forwards Arthur Dominy and James Moore each scored 12 goals in the league, with the former also netting three in the FA Cup. Seven new players were signed by the club during the campaign, with four released and sold to other clubs. The average attendance at The Dell during the 1920–21 season was 12,599.

The highest attendance was 21,363 for the FA Cup third round match against Cardiff City; the lowest was around 7,000 for matches against Reading on 1 January, Northampton Town on 9 March and Newport County on 2 May 1921 (the latter of which was the final home fixture of the season).


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, Background and transfers
At the end of the 1919–20 season, manager Jimmy McIntyre made several changes to the Southampton squad in preparation for their first season in the Football League. Scottish goalkeeper George Wilcock, who had joined the club just a year earlier, was sold to struggling First Division side Preston North End in May 1920, where he made seven appearances in the top flight before dropping out of league football at the end of the season.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, Background and transfers
He was replaced by former Sunderland goalkeeper Tommy Allen, who was brought to The Dell for free after his former club "had forgotten to include [him] on their end-of-season retained list". Centre-forward George Jones, another recent signing who had scored five goals in seven appearances in the club's last Southern League campaign, joined Yorkshire non-league side Goole Town. Arthur Andrews, who had established his place at right-half the previous year, was forced to retire from professional football following a broken leg in January, with Southampton releasing him at the end of the season.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, Background and transfers
Later in the summer, former Saints left-half Len Butt returned to the club from Thornycrofts, while Northern Irish centre-half George Moorhead joined from Sunnyside as cover for Alec Campbell. In September, centre-forward George Reader joined from Exeter City for a fee of £50. However, due to the form of Bill Rawlings, Reader's opportunities in the side were limited – after only three league appearances, he left at the end of the season to focus on a teaching career, playing part-time for Harland and Wolff.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, Background and transfers
The following month, the club signed outside-right Frank Wright from Hamstead Colliery, who made just one appearance (described by club historians as "a poor showing") before being released at the end of the season. In November, forward-turned-half-back Percy Prince was also released by Southampton, returning to his former club Boscombe. Towards the end of the campaign, Southampton signed centre-forward John Cooper and inside-right Henry Johnson from Birmingham & District League side Darlaston.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, Third Division
Southampton's first Football League campaign began on 28 August 1920 with an away fixture against Gillingham, who had finished bottom of the Southern League Premier Division the previous year. The match ended in a 1–1 draw, with Arthur Dominy scoring the club's first goal of the season (and in the division) with a shot "from an oblique angle". Dominy scored another two goals two days later in a 4–0 home win over Swindon Town, with the other two goals coming from Joe Barratt and Bill Rawlings.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, Third Division
In their first ten games of the campaign, Southampton dropped only three points from a possible 20 (one in the opening day draw, and two in a 3–2 return loss at Swindon Town), securing the top spot in the Third Division table in early October following consecutive pairs of victories over Portsmouth (last season's Southern League Premier Division champions) and Norwich City. Rawlings took over from Dominy as the season's top scorer on 18 September, when he scored the only goal in the away fixture against Portsmouth, his fourth of the season.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, Third Division
The club continued their unbeaten run until their 17th game of the season on 4 December, when they were beaten at home for the first time in almost a year at the hands of Grimsby Town, who picked up an unlikely 1–0 win after the Saints saw Tom Parker miss a penalty and James Moore sent off. The Mariners also won the return fixture at Blundell Park a week later 3–0, as the only side to win both matches against Southampton during the season.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, Third Division
Despite holding on to the top spot in the league into the new year, a winless run of four games saw the club drop below Crystal Palace, who had continued to pick up wins over the Christmas period. Losses at Northampton Town and Southend United helped Palace to extend their lead at the top of the table, with Southampton dropping down to third for a few weeks in February.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, Third Division
On 19 March 1921, Southampton picked up their biggest win of the season when they beat Merthyr Town 5–0 at home, with Bill Rawlings becoming only the club's third player to score four goals in a league match (after John Fraser and Fred Harrison, the latter of whom scored five in two games, both in the 1902–03 season). Two 1–1 draws in two days against the league leaders at the end of the month left Southampton with too much ground to make up in the final period of the season.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, Third Division
In the first game, at The Dell, the visitors equalised in "the very last seconds" which "caused such excitement that several barriers at the Milton Road end [of the ground] collapsed, injuring several spectators". In their last nine games of the season the Saints picked up just ten points, from two wins and six draws, which left them trailing five points behind Crystal Palace, who secured the only Second Division promotion place in the division. They finished just one point ahead of third-placed Queens Park Rangers and two ahead of Swindon Town in fourth place.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, FA Cup
Southampton entered the 1920–21 FA Cup in the first round against fellow Third Division side Northampton Town. The Cobblers held the Saints to a goalless draw in a "gruelling first round match" at the County Ground on 7 January 1921, although by the end of the game Southampton were "well on top". This form carried over into the replay four days later at The Dell, which the hosts won comfortably 4–1 thanks to two goals each from on-form forwards Arthur Dominy and Bill Rawlings.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, FA Cup
Receipts for the fixtures were £1,017 and £1,118, respectively, which set a new record for each ground. Grimsby Town, another Third Division club, were Southampton's opponents in the second round on 28 January, having beaten Norwich City in the previous round. Despite losing both fixtures against the side the previous month, Jimmy McIntyre's side picked up a 3–1 away win over the Mariners thanks to two goals from Rawlings and another from Dominy, who described his team as "faster [and] more together as a side" following the result.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, FA Cup
In the third round of the tournament, Southampton faced their first higher-league opponents of the season in Cardiff City, who were then placed third in the Second Division. The fixture was described by club historians as "a game of missed chances", which the Welsh side won with the only goal of the game after approximately 20 minutes following a "rare defensive mistake" by the Saints.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, FA Cup
The match against Cardiff City marked the highest attendance at The Dell during the season, exceeding 21,000 for the only time that year, as well as the second time the ground's receipts record had been broken as the club brought in £1,708 from attendees. The club played the same lineup in all four matches in the tournament.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, FA Cup
Cardiff City ultimately made it to the semi-finals of the tournament for the first time in their history later that year, beating First Division side Chelsea 1–0 in the fourth round after eliminating Southampton, before being knocked out by fellow second-tier club Wolverhampton Wanderers 3–1 in a replay on 23 March.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, Other matches
Outside of the league and the FA Cup, Southampton played four additional first-team matches. The first was a friendly match against newly formed Welsh side Bridgend Town on 18 October 1920, which the Saints won 3–1 thanks to goals from Arthur Dominy, Fred Foxall and James Moore. The next took place the following March and saw the club facing another Welsh side, Aberdare Athletic, which they lost by a single goal. On 11 May 1921, they travelled to face local rivals Portsmouth at Fratton Park for the annual Hampshire Benevolent Cup charity match.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, Other matches
The game – which drew a record crowd for the competition of 6,740 – saw the visitors forced to play right-back Tom Parker in goal in place of Tommy Allen, who had been injured, in the absence of a suitable replacement. Portsmouth won the game 1–0 thanks to a headed goal from Harold Buddery around 15 minutes into the second half, marking their eighth win of the competition (to date, the Saints had only won three times, with one match ending in a draw). On 14 May, a week after the last game of the league campaign, Southampton ended their season at fellow Third Division side Reading in the Berkshire Charity Cup, drawing 1–1 with a goal from Dominy.


1920–21 Southampton F.C. season, Player details

The 1920–21 season was the 23rd in the history of the Southern League. League was split into two sections, one for English clubs and one for Welsh clubs. The previous season had seen all Division One clubs elected to the Football League to form the new Third Division, leaving ten of the eleven clubs from Division Two (Caerphilly, who had finished bottom of Division Two, had resigned from the league) as the sole remaining members, all of which were from Wales. As a result, the league admitted thirteen new clubs from England (nine of which were reserve teams) and one from Wales (Aberdare Athletic).


1920–21 Southern Football League
Brighton & Hove Albion reserves won the English section, whilst Barry won the Welsh section. Brighton reserves were declared Southern League champions after defeating Barry in a championship play-off; after a 1–1 draw at Millwall's Den stadium, Brighton beat Barry 2–1 after eighty minutes of extra-time in a replay at Cardiff City's Ninian Park.


1920–21 Southern Football League

Welsh Section runners-up Aberdare Athletic and the English Section's eighth-placed club Charlton Athletic won the most votes and joined the League the following season.


1920–21 Southern Football League, English section

As Grimsby Town had been transferred from Division Three (which was to become Division Three South) to the new Division Three North, Crystal Palace had been promoted to Division Two, and no teams had been relegated from Division Two to the new Division Three South, there were two vacancies in the newly renamed division. The Arsenal representative at the Football League meeting proposed that the bottom two clubs in Division Three the previous season (Brentford and Gillingham) be re-elected automatically, a decision that was approved with only one representative against.


1920–21 Southern Football League, Football League election
In total, eight non-League clubs applied, six from the Southern League, one from the Western League and one from the Welsh National League (South). Aberdare Athletic and Charlton Athletic were successful, and joined the Football League the following season.

1920–21 Stoke F.C. season
Despite strengthening the Stoke squad with veteran Tom Brittleton the most notable signing Stoke struggled all season and were involved in a fight against relegation. With one team being relegated this season, Stoke finished five points from bottom place Stockport County which was too close for comfort.


1920–21 Stoke F.C. season, Season review, League
For the 1920–21 season efforts were made to strengthen the pool of players and the first of these was former England international  Tom Brittleton who made the move from Sheffield Wednesday and immediately became club captain. Competition for places or not manager Arthur Shallcross maintained a settled side that is until in October when he transferred Charlie Parker to Sunderland. He had spent six years at Stoke and became a fan favourite.


1920–21 Stoke F.C. season, Season review, League
A shortage of goals saw Stoke slip dangerously towards the lower regions of the Second Division as the 1920–21 season progressed and with only one club being relegated to the newly formed Third Division North the margin of five points and a 20th-place finish out of 22 was too close for comfort. Arthur Watkin top scored with 15 and Billy Tempest scored 10 however other than those two there was a lack of goals in the side.


1920–21 Stoke F.C. season, Season review, League
A most significant signing in April 1921 was that of Bob McGrory, a full-back from Burnley. Rumours has it that McGrory had reservations about joining Stoke as he did not like the look of the place. Whether this was true or not, he went on to spend 31 years with the club as a player and manager eventually leaving the club in May 1952.

1920–21 Yale Bulldogs men's ice hockey season, Season
Before the start of the season Yale and five other elite programs (Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, Pennsylvania and Princeton) met to organize a new hockey league. Issues arose from some potential members, namely Harvard, and instead of a forma league a loose association was formed in order to discuss issues, settle arguments and facilitate scheduling.


1920–21 Yale Bulldogs men's ice hockey season, Season
After Talbot Hunter's sudden departure from the team the program brought in former player Francis Bangs as coach. Unfortunately, the team was still having to use the Philadelphia Ice Palace as its home arena since the temporary rinks that were built on the Whitney Avenue tennis courts proved insufficient. After opening up with two losses before Christmas, Yale headed to Pittsburgh to face Carnegie Tech for the first time in over a decade. The Tartans had just brought their program back and were hardly a match for the experienced Bulldogs but the Tartans showed promise.


1920–21 Yale Bulldogs men's ice hockey season, Season
Yale won a third consecutive game against another program that returned after several years away (Columbia) but when they faced stiffer competition, the Elis were unable to raise their game. In their final five game of the season, Yale managed only 3 goals and surrendered 28. Their best performance came against Dartmouth when the two teams played a scoreless contest although the game was called due to poor ice conditions.

1920–21 in Mandatory Palestine football, Overview
Following its occupation by British troops in 1917–1918, Palestine was governed by the Occupied Enemy Territory Administration. In July 1920, the military administration was replaced by a civilian administration headed by a High Commissioner, allowing civil life to resume following the aftermath of The Great War. Maccabi societies resumed activities in several cities and settlements, including Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Petah Tikva and Hadera. In Jerusalem, the Jerusalem Sports Club was established by the British in April 1921.
