A friendly fixture before a moderate company being present was decide in favour of the home side. In view of the important Southern League engagement with Millwall, the professionals only played Moore, King and Hunt of the first team. The match was well contested during the first moiety, but in the second West Ham, in much better training, wore-down the amateurs, whose defence was much stronger than the attack. The locals started well, as after Corbett had scored and offside goal at close quarters he registered a legitimate point in smart fashion. Just previously Grimes and Lingwood, who throughout the first half gave most trouble to the West Ham defence, got through, but Grimes spoilt a successful shot by getting offside. West Ham forwards were certainly the cleverer set, but so well were they looked after that they could not again score. For the greater part of the second moiety of the game the ball was kept in the Norwood quarters. Walker and Corbett worked well, and the latter scored, while a rush by Corbett, Foss and Walker nearly resulted in a third point, Stevens scooping the ball away as it rested on the line. Then he saved capitally from Hunt, but was beaten in a bad light by a fine long shot from Taylor, the result being a three-goal victory for the local team.
