| *Bristol City arrived with only two players Burton & Preece and Bristol City's kit. They had left as a three car group, but one car had broken down in Warminster and the other car had stopped to help. After the match had been delayed an hour, the offer of filling the Bristol City team up with five of the Southampton youth team, plus their trainer Gallagher was taken up. A soldier, a school-master and another member of the crowd made up the eleven. Twenty minutes into the game the rest of the Bristol City team arrived, but it was to late to restart the match. At half-time one of the spectators could not continue and Brinton one of the late arrivals, put on the muddy kit, and then spread some mud on his knees and hair. He was spotted as a 'ringer' not long after the start of the second half and was sent off. | ||||||
