Due to the ongoing First World War, competitive football remained suspended in Britain for the 1916-17 season. Once again Chelsea competed in the unofficial London Combination, and finished 3rd in the league.
There were actually 15 teams that competed in the London Combination during the season. At the start of the season Reading were in the League, but no Portsmouth. On the 19th. October 1916 the Sporting Life reported that Reading had withdrawn from the competition. Portsmouth took their place, including the results of the first 8 matches of the season.
