    Bedfordshire, home of Luton Town

    Balls, that was mine! Should have just posted before I got to the end then claimed "we got it at the same time" (an hour apart).

    Derbyshire? Can't be bothered to read back and see if anyone got that.
    Derbyshire has two, Derby and Chesterfield.
    Sod this, I give up. I'm going back to arguing that Steven Gerrard was rubbish. Having more success at that.

    Dorset has only ever had Bournemouth, which was originally in Hampshire but got moved.

    F me, that must have taken some man-power! ;)

    Herefordshire don't have a league club.

    Hereford United used to be though so that'd be another county with only one league representative ever.

    Current Warwickshire only had Nuneaton. Historic Warwickshire had Coventry and maybe some of the Birmingham clubs. It's complex. Now it has none.

    But the original question was about counties that have only ever had one league team.
