Two matches will always come up as contentious, they have been recorded above as away matches.  England 5-1 victory over against Wales in 1888, and England's 2-1 victory over against Northern Ireland in 1973, both played on English soil, yet both were and are England away matches. The Welsh match was played at a minimal distance over the English border, as Wrexham's Racecourse Ground became unavailable at the last moment. The Welsh FA taking home the receipts and recording the match as a home defeat. The Irish match also receives similar recognition by its own FA, another home loss. In fact, between 1972 and 1974, Northern Ireland played 'many' home matches in England, the 1973 Home Championship was another example. The Irish even produced a programme for the match.
