The match had been due to take place on the Bank Holiday Monday, but was re-arranged as a two-evenings game at the last minute, the venue being decided by the toss of a coin because both Bank Holiday matches between the two clubs had been cancelled. Northern had only ten players, and the match started an hour late. AG Liggins also hit one seven (from overthrows)
