Crompton extends his tally as England's
record appearance holder. This equals the oldest team and most experienced
team that England have fielded thus far.
This 'Home' victory equals
the home record of eleven matches unbeaten. |

Match Report |
England beat Wales at New
Cross yesterday by three goals to none.
The match was a remarkable one
in many respects. The English side, who won in the end so easily, failed
to gain any advantage when playing with a strong wind behind them, for
although they had much the better of the football the Welsh defence was
very sound. The game had lasted for over an hour before there was any
scoring, and the home side showed to the most advantage when the wind
beat in their faces and the sleet and snow had made the turf slippery.
Considering the conditions during the second half the play of the
English side reached a high standard, and when once they had scored they
soon put the result beyond doubt...
Woodward was in fine form, and
he and Evans made the left wing the most effective attacking force in
the match. He scored two of the goals by neatly heading through two
centres by Simpson...
- The Times - Tuesday 14th
March, 1911
IN OTHER NEWS...
It was on 13 March
1911 that the cross-examination of Steinie Morrison continued in the
trial of the man accused of murdering a Russian landlord, Léon Beron on
Clapham Common. Two days later, he was found guilty and sentenced to
death, but the Home Secretary, Winston Churchill was to commute this to
life imprisonment.
