The club was formed in 1895 as Pine Villa F.C. before renaming to Oldham Athletic in 1899. Attaining professional status in same year, the Latics played in the local Manchester leagues before gaining entry into the Football League Second Division in 1907. Unlike many clubs, Oldham adapted to their new league status well, finishing in third position in their first league season, missing out on promotion by only two points and boasting an unbeaten home record. After another high finish the following season, the club gained its first ever promotion, finishing ahead of Hull City by virtue of a superior goal average. In their first ever top flight campaign the Latics again adapted well, finishing in seventh position. After a narrow escape from relegation during the 1911-12 season, the club recovered to reach the FA Cup semi-final in 1913 and achieve a high mid-table finish, followed by a top four placing in the 1913-14 season. The outbreak of the First World War coincided with the Latics' best ever league season - the club finishing runners up to Everton after losing their final two games of the 1914-15 season.
