Add article description

The Tagblatt-Pokal was the first football competition in Austria played in a league format. It was founded by the Neue Wiener Tagblatt,[1] and was restricted to clubs in Vienna. Nevertheless, and despite the existence of the Challenge Cup, which was open to all football clubs in Austria-Hungary, it is regarded as a forerunner of the Austrian football championship.[2] The trophy was awarded permanently to Wiener AC in 1903 after they had won it three times.[3]

Divisions

It was organised in a first division (Erste Klasse) and two parallel second divisions (Zweite Klasse A and Zweite Klasse B). It was planned that the bottom two clubs from the top division should be relegated, and that the winners of the two second divisions should be promoted.[3]
