The teams were late in getting on to the field, and the crowd had to sit shivering in the face of a cold north-east wind for over half an hour before play was called.

Besides, what is more important, they voted to supply a sufficient salary if the suitable person is found. Ever since James Robinson was sent away we have sadly lacked a trainer and constant requests have been made for one. But the corporation refused to vote a salary for such an office and stated that they had "no money." Where the money has now come from is not stated ? But let us be thankful for what...
