Many
thanks are again due to my contributors for reporting the mistakes. Readers’ comments are always welcome since
(alas!) there are certainly more mistakes waiting to be found. I have chosen to correct the known errors
when a particular volume needs reprinting.
Therefore please see which edition you have by looking at the
publication date on the second page of each book. Amendments to a later edition also apply to earlier ones unless
otherwise noted.
1888/89 to 1892/93 (2007)
1888/89 Aston Villa: Green scored 3 in
game 4; there was no own goal. Change

1889/90 Blackburn Rovers: there are 4 unknown goals, not three
1889/90 Burnley: Kaye played in
goal game 17, not Cox. Haresnape scored
2 in game 18; delete Stewart and amend goal totals. The og scorer in game 13 was Fletcher.
1890/91 Burnley: Hill scored in game 6 – add 1 to his goal total. In game 8, the scorer was Mason (og). The scorer’s name in game 9 should be
McLardie, not McLarsie.
1891/92 Wolves: the scorer in the FA Cup R1 is Devey not Davey
1892/93 Bootle: The line-up for the Q2 cup tie was the same as that for
Q1. Scorers were Stewart, Montgomery
and the attendance 3000.
1892/93 Everton: HR Robertson played in goal in game 8, not
Murray. The og in game 24 was scored by
T.Brandon.
1897/98 & 1898/99 (2009)

1897/98 Burnley: the og scorer on Sep 6 was McAvoy, not McEvey
1898/99 Darwen: Bleasdale scored in the FA Cup tie
1898/99 Glossop: Tinto was the only scorer in game 3 and McCosh in game
29. The totals are correct. FA Cup scorers
are Donaldson, Gallacher, Pryce, Colvin (Q3), Bartley (Q4) and Tinto, Pryce
(Q5).
1898/99 Grimsby: the og in game 12 was scored by Edmondson. The og in game 30 should be awarded to

1898/99 Sheffield Wednesday.
The line-ups shown against games 16 to 29 are actually those for games
15 to 28. In game 29, the line-up is as
shown (i.e. the same as the ‘new’ game 28) but Davis was 9, Pryce 8 and
Richards did not play. The changes to
the line-up for the last ten minutes of the Aston Villa game played on March 13th
are Langley at 3 (not Layton), Ferrier at 4 (not Ruddleston; however Ruddleston
played at 6, not Jamieson), Bosworth at 7 (not Dryburgh) Richards at 8 (not
Davis) and Price 9 (not Hemmingfield).
The last goal scorer on March 13 was Spiksley, not Richards (amend the
goal totals). Given that an appearance
in both Villa games should count as “one”, make the following changes to the
appearance totals: Bosworth 7, Ferrier 33, Langley 24, Pryce 8, Richards 3.

New Brighton 1899/1900: Raybould scored twice in game 5

McLatchie. Totals are correct
Burton Swifts 1900/01: The
goalkeeper in two games was J (Joseph) Watts, not C Watts
Small Heath 1900/01: Goal totals should read McMillan 10, McRoberts 17,
Wharton none
Stoke 1900/01: The scorer in
game 31 was Leech. Maxwell’s total is
correct.
1903/04 & 1904/05 (2009)
Sunderland 1904/05. 5 columns
are wrongly headed because Talbot-Lewis is out of position. Talbot-Lewis details should be in the column
headed McCullum; the names McCullum, Rhodes, Rowlandson and Stewart should be
moved one to the right. The appearance
totals will then be OK, but Rhodes’ goal total (1) should be moved one to the
right.
1911/12 & 1912/13 (2010)
Glossop 1911/12: They were 18th
in Division Two, not Division One

not Donovan.
1926/27 (2008)
Durham City: It is John Gallacher this season, not James (who played from

throughout.

game, delete Matthews as scorer.
1929/30 (2005)
Brighton: The column headed Potter T is Sly H; the column headed Sly H is
Smith R. The column headed Smith R is Smith TP. The letter gentleman was often known by his middle name Potter,
sometimes as “Potter Smith”, which explains his incorrect appearance in the

play in goal in game 42 and his appearance total should be 41.
Merthyr: In game 4, Creighton
was 3 not Scott, and TH Williams was 10 not Fletcher. In game 8, TH Williams was 2 not Cross. In games 31 to 33, B Lewis played at 9, not T

played at 4 in game 38 (not Smith) and 6 in 39 (not Fletcher). In game 40, L Smith was 4 not Moyle. In game 42, delete Carlton and L Smith. Creighton was 3, Fletcher 6, Parker 8, Scott
2, Sugarman 10, Williams 9 and TG Woodward 4.
Change appearance totals to Carlton 13, Cross 16, Fletcher 22, Gough 10,
Lewis 21, Moore 6, Moyle 13, AJ Smith 2, L Smith 24, TH Williams 27, JH
Woodward 19 and TG Woodward 36.
Plymouth: In FA Cup R1, Bowden scored 1 goal. Vidler is misspelled in the R2 replay.

making the appearance totals correct.
West Brom: The second “Richardson W” (who played in games 14 onwards)

‘Ginger’ to distinguish him from centre-half Bill Richardson.
1931/32 (2006)

and 20. Alsop did not play games 17 and
19 but played at 9 in games 18 and 21.

and 7.
Charlton: All Robinson goals are W Robinson

Waddington 24, Worrall 7 and the new player, Palmer with 1.
Crewe scorers: All Jones goals are EN Jones, giving him a total of
14. Boothway scored in game 3, not

game 23, and Ward’s goal was a (p) in this match. One of Ferris’ goals in game 30 was a penalty, and Davies scored,
not Jones. In game 41, Ward’s goal was
a (p). Totals are OK except for E
Jones.
