It was the last edition in which professional football teams from SR Bosnia and Herzegovina (with one exception) and SR Macedonia participated, as well as the last of the SFR Yugoslavia in general as the First League of FR Yugoslavia was established the following season. Red Star Belgrade won the competition. Before the start of the season, Croatia and Slovenia were already in the process of seeking independence from Yugoslavia. Teams from Croatia and Slovenia that qualified for the competition left it before the season started. Dinamo Zagreb, Hajduk Split, NK Osijek, NK Rijeka and (newly promoted) NK Zagreb left to join newly created Croatian championship, while Olimpija Ljubljana left to join newly created Slovenian championship. Thus, this season was competed only by teams from SR Serbia, SR Montenegro, SR Bosnia and Herzegovina and SR Macedonia. During the course of the season, first Macedonia, and then Bosnia and Herzegovina also declared independence from Yugoslavia, and the Bosnian War started. Because of that, Željezničar Sarajevo missed the second half of the season, and three more Bosnian teams (Sarajevo, Sloboda Tuzla, and Velež Mostar) left the competition six rounds before its completion. Remaining Bosnian team (Borac Banja Luka) and two Macedonian teams played the whole season.http://www.rsssf.org/tablesj/joeg92.html Yugoslavia 1991/92 16 January 2009 Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation 22 February 2016 After the season was concluded, Macedonian teams left the competition to join the newly created Macedonian First League. Three ethnic football leagues were created in Bosnia and Herzegovina for the next season: first, the Croats formed the First League of Herzeg-Bosnia, then the Bosniaks formed the Championship of Bosnia and Herzegovina which later became the UEFA recognized competition. Lastly, the Serbs formed the First League of the Republika Srpska. Thus, the following 1992–93 season of the Yugoslav First League was played by teams from SR Yugoslavia (Serbia and Montenegro) and one Bosnian team – Borac Banja Luka which played its home games in Belgrade. Because of the large numbers of teams leaving the league, seven new teams were promoted to the first league for 1992–93 season, all from Serbia and Montenegro: Napredak Kruševac, Hajduk Kula, Bečej, Mogren Budva, Kikinda, Radnički Novi Beograd, and FK Pristina. Overview Due to the wars in Slovenia and Croatia, the Croatian Football Federation banned the participation of clubs from the territory of Croatia in the championship of Yugoslavia. The presidency of Football Association of Yugoslavia decided to fill the First League with teams that were relegated in the previous season (Budućnost, Sloboda and Spartak) and to promote teams from the second league (Vardar, OFK Belgrade and Pelister). Ljubljana wanted to participate, but they were under pressure from their football association, and decide to leave Yugoslav competition before first round match against Partizan in Belgrade. Therefore, Football Association of Yugoslavia promoted Sutjeska. Red Star Belgrade, as the current winner of the 1990–91 European Cup and eventual winner of 1991 Intercontinental Cup, was favorite to win the championship. Slobodan Marović, Robert Prosinečki, Refik Šabanadžović, Dragiša Binić, Stevan Stojanović and coach Ljupko Petrović left the team, while Dragoje Leković, Milorad Ratković and Ilija Ivić joined the team in the summer transfer window, while Vladica Popović became the new coach. Partizan appointed Ivica Osim, the current head coach of the Yugoslavia national football team, as new coach. Ljubomir Vorkapić, Nebojša Gudelj, Branko Brnović, Slobodan Krčmarević and Zlatko Zahovič were brought to the club, while Gordan Petrić and Slaviša Jokanović returned from obligatory military service in Yugoslav People's Army. However, growing tensions in Bosnia and Herzegovina made it impossible to finish the season regularly. In the 25th round on March 29, 1992, the team of Radnički Niš did not came to their match against Velež in Mostar, fearing for their safety, so the victory was awarded to Velež. In the next round, on April 5, 1992, the match Željezničar-Rad in Sarajevo did not begin, because before the game shootings started in the vicinity of Grbavica Stadium. Since that round, the teams from Bosnia and Herzegovina (except Borac from Banja Luka) are no longer able to organize matches on their home ground, nor have they been able to assemble their teams for away matches. Association of First Federal League clubs decided to cancel all the matches played by Željezničar in the spring part of the season, since the club played less than half of the matches in the spring part. The matches played by Sarajevo, Velež and Sloboda were recognized because these clubs played more than half of the matches in the spring part of the season, scheduled matches were registered as wins for their opponents, while the scheduled matches between these three clubs were also deleted. In the end, Red Star won the title with 50 points, while Partizan was second with 46 points. If the results of the matches of Sarajevo, Velež and Sloboda were deleted too, new champion would become Partizan.
