After the season finished the following teams moved from the league:
- Stableford’s Works to the Coalville & District Amateur Football League
Ashby Town disbanded after this season.
Shepshed Albion may have disbanded after this season as the following newspaper article suggests that was an option.
SHEPSHED ALBION F.C.
Leicester Evening Mail, Thursday 28th April 1927.
A meeting of the management committee of the above club was held at the Black Swan Inn on Tuesday (26th April) evening, when it was decided to withdraw from the Leicestershire Senior League competition. This step has been taken owing to the insufficient financial support received during the present season.
This does not necessarily mean that the club is to become extinct, for if at the annual general meeting it is decided to carry on, and they wish to see re-admission to the League, they will in all probability be able to do so.
Barwell United and Measham Town may also have disbanded after this season (though Barwell United were in the FA Cup draw for the 1927/28 season)
