reserves: |
The named reserves are
Tom Brittleton (The Wednesday FC
(FL1 5th)) and
Harold Fleming (Swindon Town FC
(SL1 RUNNERS-UP)).
Evelyn Lintott, who had already featured in this tour, would also
have been an original reserve. |
|
team changes: |
There were changes from the original named line-up, Fleming replaced
Bert Freeman
(Everton FC
(FL1 RUNNERS-UP)) and Bridgett replaced
George Wall
(Manchester United FC
(FL1 13th)). Neither of which travelled. Richards replaced
Evelyn Lintott (Bradford City FC
(FL1 18th)). |
|
appearance notes: |
Bob Crompton & Ben Warren are the first players to make nineteen
consecutive appearances, as Crompton
continues to extend his tally as England's record appearance holder.
Vivian Woodward is the
third player to make 21 appearances, Warren is the sixth to make nineteen and Billy Wedlock is
the eleventh to have made sixteen. 21 players have now made eleven,
and 24 have made
ten appearances, with goalkeeper Sam Hardy being the latest addition
to the growing list.
It does mean that for a second time—the first
time
since April 1900—that England start with seven players who have
made at least ten appearances.
65 players have now made
five appearances.
Crompton is also the first player to make 27 appearances under the
guidance of the ISC whereas Woodward is the x player to make
21. |
|
goalscoring notes: |
Vivian Woodward is the second
player to have scored 26 England goals, the
other being Steve Bloomer.
George Holley is the nineteenth England
player to have scored five goals for his country. |
|
records: |
Woodward is the first player since Spiksley in 1893 to score hattricks in two consecutive matches.
This victory expands on the new record of nine
away victories in a row - and the first time England have played on a
Tuesday.
This is the only time England have won all six matches in
a season comprising of six matches. The second time they have won six
in a season.

It was on 1 June 1909
that an ocean-to-ocean automobile race began from New York, ending in
Seattle, where the Alaska Yukon Pacific Exposition was being staged. The
cars could only be driven during daylight hours, they had to negotiate a
snow-covered mountain pass in Washington State, they had to cross a lake
by ferry, and the roads outside of towns and cities were often mere mud
tracks. 23 days later, a Ford Model T was the first to arrive in
Seattle, only to be disqualified some five months later when it was
discovered that the engine had been changed during the race. |
