Reports re Players	Mr E Green reported that Massie RH Scotland was
Ireland v Scotland a good player, clever, fair build & good enough
		for any team. Johnstone C.H. Scotland, was dominating
		6'.1" & practically played 3rd back, not quite as good as
		Gee. King OL Scotland was small but weightier
		than Lewis of Swansea, a splendid player, except that
		he fed his inside man rather too much. Priestley
		IR Ireland he recommended he be left out of
		consideration.

Derby County players	He also reported that he would to see more
		of Barker C.H. who was not too much in the
		picture v Blackburn Rovers before he could give
		a decided opinion of him, but Crookes OR was
		excellent & Duncan OL very good.

Walker (St Mirren)	Mr J Fare reported that this player was typically
		Scottish in style, more of a defender than attacker
		but thought he was not quite so good as Nelson (PNE)

McPhail (Clyde)		Mr H Hart stated that this RH was a strong
		hard player but could not recommend him.

Whatmough &		Mr T Fleetwood reported that the former
Webster (Bradford C) had played poorly & considered he was not
		good enough for us, but the latter was a clever
		player.

Butler (Stalybridge)	Mr T Kelly reported that this player was
		a promising outside right.

Chester v Stockport County Messrs W C Gibbins & Secy stated that they did
		not consider any of these teams players good
		enough for us at present but that Jenkinson was
		promising, but rather poor in the air.

Mercer J.		Messrs W C Gibbins & Geo Evans reported that
