THIS TABLE WAS COMPLETELY OVERHAULED IN NOVEMBER 2017. 2019/20-season was halted in March 2020. The standings at the time was eventually declared final.

Notes

1932/33: A championship final was to be played between the winners of the two groups but as the winners of group B, FC Antibes-Juan-les-Pins, were disqualified after attempted bribery against SC Fivois, the 2nd placed team in that group (AS Cannes) played the final instead. The final (Olympique Lillois - AS Cannes 4-3 aet) is counted in the tables as are the group results of FC Antibes- Juan-les-Pins. 1939/40 - 1944/45: No official championship was played. Only regional leagues in operation because of WWII. 1992/93: Olympique de Marseille were stripped of the title because of bribery allegations. However, their results are counted in the tables as they were allowed to stand in the official table. 2012/13: AC Ajaccio had two points deducted.
