The line-ups and
1 scorer is unknown, although

|
the Liverpool Mercury
report says that Everton were without
|
|
|||
|
Farmer and Fleming
and that "Richards was again drafted into the
|
|
|||
|
eleven and ... C.C.
Jones a player from Newton ... was given a trial".

The Manchester Courier
gives the Everton scorers

Everton didn't begin playing FA Cup matches until 1887/88 and were founder members of the Football League, which began in 1888/89. Prior to that the club participated in Friendly matches and local Cup competitions. Details are inevitably sketchy and incomplete. Match, appearance and goal statistics are not counted in any official records. |
