JP, thank you for that. Is there an inscription on the little cup? The photograph on the museum`s website just shows "RENTON FC".

A common "fact" about the English Cup is that when Wanderers won it for the third time in succession in 1878 and therefore under the rules at the time could keep it they offered to give it back to the FA on the proviso that this rule be obliterated. Almost every newspaper match report states that th...

Is there ANY photographic or written evidence that Renton DID erect a sign over their clubhouse "CHAMPIONS OF THE WORLD" after they gubbed West Brom 4-1 in 1888?

OK everyone, you can stop searching; I`ve found them.

Does anyone have ANY information on a Victorian club called VALE HIBS? It`s a new one on me.

It`s an age thing! I meant the NZU23 team!

What WAS the Auckland team? It`s the only one I have missing from this tour.

I have this game played @ Newmarket Park. Do you have the NZU23 team from 5/6/67? THAT game was played on the Lower Hutt Recreation Ground.

Frank Haffey SAVED one taken by Bobby Charlton @ Hampden 1960 then threw the ball into the net when referee ordered retake because Eric Caldow had encroached. Charlton put the second try wide of Haffey`s right hand but also past the post.

"...delightfully named David Smellie."! It`s pronounced SMILEY Bristol Rovers.

Yes, sorry overkeen on the keyboard there, Willie Watt DID play in the 1884 English Final. Archie Rowan for reasons best known to himself DID play under the initials A.P.McCallum and he and Peter McCallum(P.McCallum) were contemporaries between the Spiders` posts and the contemporary press didn`t he...

Might be aff ma` heid here but I think the Cup was presented right after the 1912 Cup Final but generally the winning club`s secretary turned up @ the SFA offices about a week after the Final to be presented with the Cup & 12 medals until Aberdeen`s Frank Dunlop was presented with it on the field im...

The 1884 Final that never was! The SFA`s business committee did indeed wait before officially handing the Cup over to Queen`s Park and they also handed over 12 medals and it is generally assumed these were given to the XI players who took the field vs. 3rd LRV on the appointed Final day plus one, pe...

I wonder if anyone can help here with some Christian names of this Kilmarnock Athletic side which played a Glasgow Select @ Holm Quarry on 18/5/1881. A long shot, I know but ANYTHING will be gratefully received. John Inglis, George Bone, ?.Wallace, James Lucas, ?.Wilson, John Goudie, John Goodall, J...

Thank you both, just the ticket.
