Notes[edit]

  1. ^ Seasons prior to 1995–96 use the old points system of 2 points for a win; from 1995–96 onward the current system with 3 points for a win is used.
  2. ^ The Südkreisliga was a localised division within the Northern German system. The winners would have to compete against other North German league winners to determine the North German representative at the national championship. Despite their four local league titles, Hannover 96 never managed to make it through to the national championship in this period.
  3. ^ a b c Prior to the formation of the Bundesliga in 1963–64, the regional champions would meet in a championship tournament to crown the national champions. Hannover 96 lost out in these in the 1934–35, 1939–40, 1940–41 and 1948–49 seasons; their two victories in 1937–38 (4–3 vs. Schalke 04) and 1953–54 (5–1 vs. 1. FC Kaiserslautern) made them German champions.
  4. ^ Early in the 1948–49 season, Hannover 96 won an appeal against their relegation of the previous season, as Holstein Kiel, who had narrowly survived at their expense, had fielded an illegal player. The club were awarded their place back in the top flight for the next season. Due to this, Hannover 96 immediately ended their 1948–49 league campaign (after playing three matches) and only played friendlies for the remainder of the season.
  5. ^ Entry into the DFB-Pokal only became automatic for all top-tier clubs with the introduction of the Bundesliga in 1963–64. In the period from the foundation of the cup in 1953 until this point, only the winners of the regional cup competitions, along with the national league champions and national amateur champions were entered. Hannover 96's appearance in 1954–55 was via their win of the German championship in the previous season.
  6. ^ Hannover 96's application to enter the Bundesliga in its inaugural 1963–64 season was turned down, leading to them being moved to the newly created Regionalliga Nord, a second-tier division.
  7. ^ Hannover 96's promotion to the Bundesliga for the following season was via a playoff league involving eight teams from all five divisions of the Regionalliga.
  8. ^ For the 1991–92 season, the 2. Bundesliga was split into north and south divisions as it integrated the new clubs from the former East Germany.
  9. ^ Promotion from the modern Regionalliga Nord relied upon winning a playoff against the Regionalliga Nordost champions. In 1996–97, Hannover 96 lost in this (1–3 vs. Energie Cottbus) and thus remained in the Regionalliga, but in 1997–98 they were victorious (2–2 vs. Tennis Borussia Berlin, 3–1 on penalties) and so gained promotion.
