appearance notes: |
Bob Crompton continues to extend his tally as England's record appearance holder.
Billy Wedlock is the eighth player to make eighteen appearances, Jesse
Pennington and goalkeeper Sam Hardy become the seventeenth and
eighteenth players to have now made twelve. Hardy also breaks the record of the goalkeeper
with most appearances, previously held by
Jack Robinson. He is also the second to have kept five clean
sheets. Dicky Bond is the fortieth player to have
made seven appearances, George Holley is the 53rd to have made six,
Harold Fleming is the 66th to make five and George Wall is the 93rd to
have made four. 201 England players have played
for their country more than once, which also equates that, so far, 149
players have worn the jersey just the once.
Crompton is also the first player to make 28 appearances under the
guidance of the ISC whereas Wedlock is the x player to make
eighteen. |

records: |
England's eightieth competitive match. Also their thirtieth

Match Report
The Times, Tuesday,
15 March 1910 |
England beat Wales at Cardiff
yesterday by one goal to none. On the whole the victory was deserved,
but the Welshmen put up a splendid fight. The weather was very fine and
the ground in excellent condition, and there were nearly 20,000
spectators... From first to last the match
was played at a great pace.

In Other News....
It was on 14 March
1910 that the inquest opened into the Clydach Vale flood disaster of
three days earlier in the Rhondda Valley, when a torrent of water,
collecting mud and rubble on its way, had surged down a mountainside
into the village, demolishing eleven houses and a shop, before hitting
the local school. One woman and five children were killed and it was
only the good fortune that it coincided with miners passing the school
at the end of their shift that they were able to quickly react and help
save the lives of over 950 children. It was discovered that a dam at the
mouth of a disused colliery level had burst. |
