Scunthorpe United have been in the Football League since 1950, with their highest league finish being fourth in Division Two.
They have only had one fixture not completed in their history, which was due to Exeter City not being able to fulfil the game in 1973-74.
The 2019-20 season was curtailed early due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with Scunthorpe finishing in 20th place after points were calculated on a points per game basis.
