records: |
This is the last match Bohemia will play. As at a FIFA Congress
meeting held in Vienna during the tour, barred the Bohemian FA from
being affiliated, due to protests of the Austria FA.
"For those who are acquainted with the situation in Austria it is
quite intelligible that the Austrian F.A., consisting only of
Austro-German Clubs, objected to the Bohemian F.A. being recognised as
an independent body. It is unquestionably true that Bohemia, after
having been provisionally recognised at Bern, was definitely and
regularly affiliated to the F.I.F.A. in Amsterdam [chaired by the
F.A.'s own D. B. Woolfall], therefore the Bohemian question had been
settled and should not have been discussed again in Vienna. Mr.
Woolfall had been in the chair in Amsterdam and certainly would never
have allowed the rediscussion of a question which had been absolutely
and definitely settled."" They will return as the
Czechoslovakian nation in 1920. |

the sixth England player to have scored at least twelve goals. |
|
records: |
With the beginnings of a continental tour,
this is the first time England have played seven matches in a season. It is also the first time time they have played seven away matches in a row, spending a record 119 days on the road. This victory equals the record of six
victories in a row. The first time they have won six in a season.
The first time England have scored 39 goals in a season. Also the
25th clean sheet under the guidance of the
International Select Committee. For the first time since 1874,
England have a positive statistic in friendly matches. After 23
matches, they have won more friendlies than they have lost.

It was on 14 June 1908
that the Earl of Derby, Frederick Stanley died. As Governor General of
Canada in 1892, he donated a trophy to be competed for in ice hockey.
Although the original trophy was eventually replaced, the National
Hockey League's championship trophy is still known as the Stanley Cup. |
