Overview
Only four teams participated in the 1904 championship, with Fifeshire having withdrawn from the competition due to fixture scheduling conflicts.[1]
Final table
One point was awarded for a win, and one point was taken away for each loss, therefore:
- 1 for a win
- 0 for a draw
- -1 for a loss[2]
Final placings were decided by dividing the number of points earned by the number of completed matches (i.e. those that ended in a win or a loss), and multiplying by 100. Abandoned matches were counted as draws.
