1904–05 Blackpool F.C. season

The campaign began with a goalless draw at home to Leicester Fosse on 3 September. It wasn't until their fifth game that Blackpool recorded their first victory. It came at Lancashire neighbours Burnley — Alfie Kearns scoring the only goal of the game.

Their next victory did not come until 3 December, just over two months later, 4–1 at home to Glossop. They won their next fixture, at home to Bradford City, before managing only one point from their three festive games. A New Year's Eve defeat left them with only thirteen points from a possible 34.

After an FA Cup first-round exit to Bristol City, 1905 started with a bang: 6–0 and 2–0 home wins over Barnsley and Burnley.

Three victories in five games lifted them briefly, but then six defeats in their final nine games saw them finish fourth-bottom, albeit twenty points clear of bottom club Doncaster Rovers, who failed in their attempt to be reelected.
