Easter Monday morning for the final of the Walker
Charity Cup, but that he did not think it would
affect the Liverpool Schools gate.
The Chairman informed the Board that in his
recent interview with Councillor Walker he had
informed the Councillor that our only reason for
declining the use of Goodison Park was in conformity
with our arrangements with the Liverpool Club made
at the beginning of the season and that but for such
arrangements we would have been quite willing to grant
them the use of our ground and that we would agree to
the match being played at Anfield on Good Friday
morning or at Goodison Park on Easter Monday morning.
The Secretary mentioned that he had informed Mr. McKenna
in his conversation that he had heard that the Councillor
Walker Charity match was to be played at Anfield on
Good Friday morning but Mr. McKenna denied that this
was so as they were indisposed to allow their ground to
be used on a Good Friday morning owing to their close
proximity to a place of worship.
After discussion it was resolved that the Secretary repeat
to the Liverpool Club our Chairman's statement to
Councillor Walker, namely, that we would consent
to the Charity Cup being played at Goodison Park on
Easter Monday morning or at Anfield on Good Friday
morning.
The Secretary was further instructed to write Mr. Waddington
that we could not take over any guarantee that they might
enter into with the Glasgow Schools F. A. but that they were
welcome to the free use of Goodison Park on April 15th or 22nd,
the only Saturdays on which our ground remained
available, at their own risk.
