Neubauer penalty
Most sources state a Neubauer penalty,
but a small minority give it Ludwig Hussak. Lack of contemporary news
reports means we cannot confirm either. |

reserves: |
The named reserves are
Tom Brittleton (The Wednesday FC) and
Harold Fleming (Swindon Town FC).
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) and Bridgett replaced
George Wall
(Manchester United FC). Neither of which travelled. Richards replaced
Bradford City FC's Evelyn Lintott. |
|
appearance notes: |
Bob Crompton & Ben Warren are the first players to make nineteen
consecutive appearances. |
|
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. |
