The winners were Wigan Athletic and the runners-up were Brentford.
The competition began on 22 January 1985 and ended with the final on 1 June 1985 at Wembley Stadium.
In the first round, there were two sections: North and South. In the following rounds each section gradually eliminates teams in knock-out fashion until each has a winning finalist. At this point, the two winning finalists faced each other in the combined final for the honour of the trophy.
