Diary
Friday, 28 February 1873 -
Newspaper reports that the players for the upcoming grand international football
match will be chosen from Messrs Gardner, Wotherspoon, Kerr, Renny-Tailyour,
Kinnaird, R.Smith, Blackburn, J.Smith, Leckie, Weir, Rhind, Elliot and Stewart.
This match, along with match one, were organised by the Queen's Park club of
Glasgow.
The Scottish 'International Fund', £32, allowed
only eight return tickets to London for the match, so three of the Scottish
line-up were London residents. Arthur Kinnaird qualified by being a
Perthshire landowner.
